외국인 유학생의 대학생활적응에 대한 질적 문헌분석

초록

Objectives In this study, we aim to comprehensively examine the experiences of foreign international students studying in South Korea and explore the direction of future research on foreign international students. Methods A qualitative literature review was conducted on papers published from January 1st, 2012 to February 14th, 2023. The literature analysis was based on Dewey's theory of experience and categorized according to temporally, spatially, and sociality in the narrative inquiry space. The topic analysis referred to Baker and Siryk's concept of college life adjustment, which includes academic adaptation, social adaptation, personal-emotional adaptation, and adaptation to the college environment. Results There have been efforts to shift the perspective on foreign international students from language learning to a more individualized approach at the national level. For international students, the classroom was a complex space intertwined with various relationships, and the campus was like a home within Korea that provided psychological stability. However, to live as a part of South Korea, life adjustment to the world outside the campus was also necessary. On the other hand, foreign international students also experienced dilemmas depending on their personal and social situations. Conclusions Language education should be approached in a multidimensional manner, and a systematic and organic learning support system for foreign international students is required throughout the university. In addition, there is a need for systems and education that allow Korean students to grow as peer learners with international students.
