SUMMARY:The Other South Korea in APHG
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nSouth Korea in the U.S. curriculum is largely the Korean War and the Demilitarized Zone/Joint Security Area. In this session\, the “other” view of South Korea is presented by APHG teachers who have participated in academic field study in the country. They will provide their field study-based observations within the context of APHG. Topics such as Korean traditions within urban society; cultural celebrations and places; marketing fish and flip-flops; population dynamics; and international issues and challenges. The captivation by K-Pop among U.S. youth via TV serials/streaming\, music\, games\, manhwa\, and food choices are discussed as a means to enhance Korean content contributions to the APHG course. The session will promote the importance of experiential learning and how it enhances content through virtual and place-based learning \nSession Focus\nAPHG | Experiential | Field study | Application | World/International \nConference Room\nSan Pedro \nMeet the Presenter\nAmber Jeffords has been a Colorado girl since childhood\, growing up in Colorado Springs and returning to nearby Fountain\, Colorado as a social studies teacher at Fountain-Fort Carson High School.
