Abstract
This thesis intends to clarify the characteristics of grammar knowledge and the methodology for educational contents organization in Korean Language Knowledge domain(so called grammar education). At first, I demonstrated the characteristics of grammar knowledge through overcoming the wide-spreading prejudices. There are two prejudices in this domain. The first is that grammar knowledges reside objectively in outer place of user. This make everyone think that the educational content lists are so educational values of grammar are also regarded as pragmentary. Secondly, the innateness of grammatical competence prevent everyone from educating needs, especially in case of native speakers. Out of this domain are there also two prejudices. The framework of prepositional knowledge - procedural knowledge ties up the feature of grammar knowledge: prepositional. Moreover, the activity-focused educational view has brought out the neglect of the knowledges.
In addition to this kind of transitional realization, the urgent problem is the educational paradigm establishment. Meanwhile grammar education researchers have thought like these: First, if only instruction method developed, it suffices itself, the second, they have been concentrated on the simplicity of educational contents(and nonexistence of the simplicity principles), and the third, the 'real' linguistic data confirm the educational values. The educational paradigm is defined as 'the philosophical consensus about the key words which conduct linguistically the performance ways among users'. This will be able to overcome these problems. in this thesis it was elucidated in three respects: the linguistic view of communication, reconstruction of the between grammar and meaning, the balancing the normativity-creativity.
The educational paradigm can be holistic framework for educational contents organization. So I explained the specialty of this domain in organization. And I also proposed the methodology in two respects: vertical and horizontal. Vertical focuses on the inner structure of this domain and the horizontal on the outer structure comparing with other domain.
