Busan Office of Education Partners with Universities to Improve Classroom Teaching

University Collaboration Class Improvement Workshop 'Class is Tomorrow' Held

Busan Metropolitan Office of Education is collaborating with local universities to improve classroom instruction focused on student-led questioning and inquiry.

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Ha Yoon-su) will hold a university cooperation workshop for class improvement titled "Class is Tomorrow" on the 8th at Busan National University of Education Affiliated Elementary School. The event will target over 900 participants including elementary school teachers in Busan, education professionals, professors from Busan National University of Education, teachers from affiliated elementary schools nationwide, and pre-service teachers.

This workshop aims to activate student-led classes through collaboration with universities and explore ways to improve classroom instruction centered on questioning and inquiry.

The Office of Education will operate the workshop under the theme "Sharing Diverse Student-Led Class Cases with Living Questions and Inquiry Across Various Subjects." Starting with an opening and keynote presentation, the workshop will proceed with 13 open classes across 11 subjects, creative experiential activities, and special education.

After the open classes, a class concert in a talk format will be held, featuring subject-specific presentations and Q&A sessions with participation from Busan National University of Education professors, class facilitators, and observing teachers.

In particular, Busan National University of Education and its affiliated elementary school will share the results of their subject-specific collaborative research conducted since last year.

Recordings of the open classes on the day will be uploaded to the "Busan Teaching and Learning Center," and the teaching and learning plans will be posted on the affiliated elementary school's website.

Ha Yoon-su, Superintendent of Busan Metropolitan Office of Education, stated, "The fundamental role of schools?student education and growth?can be realized through instruction. The Office of Education will spare no effort to support the activation and establishment of a culture of instructional research."
