Abstract Abstract: In order to explore the feasibility of applying the Production-oriented Approach (POA) to teach beginning Korean language majors in universities, the author designed one class-hour comprehensive reading lesson plan involving a grammatical focus on Korean inflectional affixes for the first-year students and
implemented the plan in classroom instruction. This paper reports on the detailed instructional design of this classroom practice and the feedback from the students and the colleagues gathered through interviews after class. The result showed that the students and two colleagues both made overall positive comments on the teaching practice while raised some doubts and concerns. The author believes that the hesitations may derive from their outdated concepts of "teaching" and "learning" of grammar knowledge. Therefore, updating the concepts is the key to the effective application of POA in the teaching of less-commonly taught languages for beginners.
Key words: POA; college Korean language teaching; teaching grammar；instructional design
