Sung, Ilho. “On the New English Teaching Method through Open Texts.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 42.2 (2016): 161-185. TV shows and game texts can narrow the gap between course-book texts and natural usage. Especially foreign language learners feel disconnected from the real use of the English of the inner circle. This issue must be dealt with so that all English learning students are given access to the real English provided through open texts such as TV shows and games. The purpose of this study is to analyze and compare learning components of the open texts and its response from the students. A test for imperative mood in the TV shows and a questionnaire survey about attitudes towards the game texts were carried out. A total of 60 English Education major students took part in the experiment during the fall semester of 2015. The questionnaire used 22 questions to measure course experience of the English texts of the two games. Based on the results of the study, suggestions for providing students with an awareness and importance of open texts were made. (Wonkwang University)
