[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) is supporting educational activities in the emergency care classroom at Geoye Elementary School by utilizing Songpa SSEM village instructors.

As the operation of emergency care classrooms at each school has been prolonged due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of children expressing frustration and boredom has increased.

Accordingly, Songpa-gu is supporting emergency care educational activities by utilizing village instructors from its own education support platform, Songpa SSEM (Songpa Smart Education Model).

Village instructors from Songpa SSEM, who possess fun and diverse content, visit elementary school emergency care classrooms directly to provide practice- and experience-oriented lessons.

A total of 18 programs have been prepared, including ▲ Zentangle (pattern art) drawing ▲ board games ▲ 3D pen ▲ paper rolling crafts ▲ art trips with docent teachers ▲ reading ▲ traditional games ▲ simple cooking, and more.

This class is operated every Monday to Friday for students in grades 3 and 4 of the emergency care classroom at Geoye Elementary School until offline school reopening. Since lessons and play are combined, it is expected to increase children's interest and have a great learning effect.

Since starting activities in October last year, Songpa SSEM village instructors have been striving to strengthen their expertise. The district added that the village instructors’ research group activities have been especially helpful. Village instructors from different professional fields gather to carry out research tasks and promote sustainability.

Going forward, the district plans to discover differentiated educational content unique to Songpa and nurture creative talents together with Songpa SSEM village instructors.

Park Seong-su, Mayor of Songpa-gu, said, “Songpa SSEM village instructors have lent their strength to children who find various activities difficult due to the prolonged COVID-19 situation,” and added, “We will spare no support to ensure that our children do not face difficulties in learning according to the changing educational environment.” Songpa-gu Office Education Cooperation Division
