Project Overview
Project Overview
The English for Job Interviews course was an online learning experience designed for adult English language learners preparing for the job market in South Korea. The course helped students develop English fluency, digital literacy, and confidence through practical, real-world communication tasks.
Approach
Approach
Grounded in Anderson’s Community of Inquiry model, the design emphasized active learning and collaboration. Students explored their strengths, researched target companies, created digital resumes, and practiced interview questions through video and peer feedback. The course built community through discussion, creativity, and authentic tasks that mirrored professional contexts.
Design Process
Design Process
Learner needs were identified through a pre-course survey that informed activity design and skill scaffolding. Following Salmon’s five-stage online learning framework, each module introduced new digital tools and increasingly complex assignments—from self-introductions to simulated interviews—supporting steady skill growth and learner confidence.
