Building upon the foundation provided in Korean 2, Korean 3 is designed for lower-intermediate students to improve practical and essential communicative skills. Students learn vocabulary and grammatical structures for everyday language use in short written and oral communication. Through interactive activities, students gain confidence in exchanging basic information on familiar topics and managing common tasks such as handling inquiries, discussing hobbies and travel destinations, engaging in telephone conversations, expressing emotions and empathy, and navigating transportation. Additionally, this course offers insights into major cultural events such as Korean celebrations and festivals. Successful completion of this course enables students to advance to a low-intermediate level of Korean proficiency.

Other Information On successful completion of this course, students will have the knowledge and skills to engage at a Low-intermediate Beginner level of Korean. Students with native speaker proficiency (may include cognate languages and dialects) or with previous “language experience or exposure” are required to undertake a language proficiency assessment to ensure enrolment at the most appropriate level. Students who require a proficiency test must review the language proficiency assessment site and contact the CAP Student Centre for appropriate enrolment advice. Relevant past experience includes: - Previous study of the language (both formal and informal, for example but not limited to, at school, or, home, or through online activities, etc.) - Being exposed to the language in childhood via a family member or friend - Travel or living in a country where the language is spoken - The language being spoken in your home (even if you do not speak it yourself) Students who are not sure if they need to undertake a language proficiency assessment should seek advice from the course or language convenor. Students who intentionally misrepresent their language proficiency level may be investigated under the Academic Integrity Rule 2021 as having failed to comply with assessment directions and having sought unfair advantage. This may result in a penalty such as reduced grades or failure of the course. Students are not permitted to enrol in a language course below one that they have already successfully completed, except with permission of the language and/or course convenor.
