CHUNGDAHM Learning's service expansion has provided new opportunities for instructors and teachers outside of its fundamental Blended Learning center business. The Company has extended its ESL learning center brands and has expanded its u-learning, global learning, and new media content business areas. Many CHUNGDAHM institute instructors participate in projects in other facets of the Company to gain new experiences while still contributing to the Company. Others enjoy smooth transitions from one facet of the Company to another, depending on each instructor's goals, aspirations, and career path.

CHUNGDAHM's e-Learning Division was launched in 2003, offering students an interactive means to practice and improve their fundamental writing and grammar skills. Currently, CHUNGDAHM's online division is supported by a staff of over 200 employees, providing services ranging from basic-level story writing to advanced "master-level" academic paper writing.

Following up on the overwhelming response to the e-Learning venture, CHUNGDAHM began to lay the foundation for a complete and independent curriculum that mirrors its current comprehensive offline programs. As a result, certain CHUNGDAHM academic curriculums have been wholly integrated with online education programs to create blended programs.

With the goal of providing access to the curriculum anytime, anywhere, the e-Learning department was renamed the "CHUNGDAHM u-Learning Business Division," the u meaning "ubiquitous," providing students with the ability to practice their fundamental English skills through various modes of learning.

CHUNGDAHM's patented online writing program, Writing Master (WM, http://wsm.echungdahm.com), aims to foster effective writing skills by integrating critical thinking into the structured writing process. Unlike most writing programs that focus mainly on grammar and organization, WM provides writing strategies on four critical areas: Structure, Substance, Strategy, and Style. This comprehensive 4-SCheck model guides learners to explore, develop, and refine skills at each stage of the writing process.

WM utilizes a distinctive learning methodology that combines a selective index-based system (Index Approach) and tutor-guided self-revision process (Self-Learning Approach). The Index Approach relies on indices that are preselected according to high-frequency error-per-learner ability level, allowing learners to focus on a few areas at a time. The Self-Learning Approach encourages learners to self-realize what type of mistake was made and attempt revision on their own, based on the customized assessment and feedback provided by professional e-Tutors.

Through WM¡¯s systematic learning approach, learners gain opportunities to practice thinking critically about the topic and communicate ideas effectively in writing, ultimately leading to writing acumen and intellectual development.

WM has joined CHUNGDAHM's online iBT Assessment site (www.ibtprep.co.kr) where subscribers are able to receive full assessment and feedback of iBT (Internet-Based TOEFL) simulations. Since its international release in June 2006, iBT has become the international standard for English proficiency. Ever since its introduction into the ESL market, it has shifted the paradigm of English language acquisition methodologies, and the iBT Prep program has supported students¡¯ need to prepare for this.

Launched in September 2007, the CHUNGDAHM April Institute
brand of learning centers target elementary-school learners
to develop communicative competence based on intrinsic
motivation and immersion. Leveraging education-based
technology tools such as automated speech recognition and
e-learning systems, students can improve their expressive
skills and logical thinking abilities. Specifically,
communicative competence in the CHUNGDAHM April English
program is facilitated through experiential learning,
content-based instruction, and task-based instruction, all which reflect a learner-centered and integrated-skills approach.

There are three main components in the CHUNGDAHM April English Program: preview, class, and review. In the preview section, students practice key phrases and sentence patterns. In the class section, students improve their expressive skills and logical thinking abilities by making their own dialogues in stories and scripts. Finally, in groups, students act out their creations in front of a blue screen, using chroma key technology to record and playback scenes. In the review section, students¡¯ work is accessible via the website for instructors to check and provide feedback.

CHUNGDAHM is always considering candidates for its WM, iBT Prep, CHUNGDAHM Prep, and CHUNGDAHM April Institute programs. Interested candidates who have work experience in English education, TOEFL preparation, and/or have extensive writing experience, should email us to find out more about open positions.
