For this capacity-building session, Park Chanseon, a child psychology and cognitive learning counseling expert and CEO of Yeonahyeyum, was invited as a lecturer and delivered a lecture on the topic, "Walking Together with Slow Learners (Students with Borderline Intelligence) - Focusing on Social Skills."

The training covered a comprehensive understanding of slow learners (students with borderline intelligence), as well as specific instructional methods tailored to each grade level.

In particular, lecturer Park Chanseon emphasized the impact of instructional methods that utilize individual strengths, along with cognitive ability enhancement and consistent learning training, on student learning. There was also a Q&A session regarding slow learners (students with borderline intelligence), which provided an opportunity to discuss the challenges of instruction.

Shin Woonsik, head of the Education Support Division and director of the Gumi Basic Academic Skills Hub Support Center, stated, "I would like to thank the teachers for guiding the students with warm attention and dedication. I hope that through this training, teachers will be able to discover the strengths of slow learners (students with borderline intelligence) who are struggling in the learning process, strengthen their social skills, and provide them with a valuable opportunity to actively participate in their own learning journey."
