영어
When we discuss foreign language instruction in the classroom, it is of critical importance to articulate its context before the consideration of actual teaching methodologies. It is assumed in this study that three variables of learner, sociocultural environment, and instructor are the most important ones among those consisting of a foreign language classroom. Moreover, the study considers that, since it should be the learner who shapes the learning, the context should be understood from his or her own perspective. In this line of the understanding, 187 college students were questioned regarding their understanding of the context. The subjects were asked to answer 20 questions on the questionnaire which consists of four sections of English as a subject, learners themselves, sociocultural environment of English learning, and their instructors. The study showed mixed results. The subjects were well conscious of the importance of English and English learning in the society. However, English was not considered as a favorite subject. Further, the subjects responded that they were neither active in their participation in the learning process nor confident in the learning. The study disclosed that these results were closely related with other contextual variables such as learner, sociocultural environment, and instructor.
