Konglish in Action
There are many ways to incorporate Konglish lessons in the classroom, but educators must first be aware of Konglish and their objectives for the course. Here is an online quiz for starters.
To bring about more interactive strategies in the class, especially for large groups, place students into teams show images and have them choose the correct terminology when using English vs Konglish. You can use a powerpoint I created to teach the difference between Konglish and English.

This short powerpoint can be used in the classroom for both large and small groups. I used this powerpoint as a game with a group of 28 students, in which they were placed into two teams. After reading the question from the powerpoint, I asked students to stand on either the 'Yes' or 'No' side as a means of choosing the correct option. Students were excited to learn that they knew much Konglish and little English.
If you would rather stick to assessments, download this quiz that 1stopKorea.com designed.
