| Abstract |
|
In this study, the historical epistemology which was frequently mentioned in the field of culture and history was utilized as a specific methodology for university students to prepare a letter of self-introduction. Especially, suggestions were made to allow students to prepare their letter of self-introduction more efficiently through four introductory settings including ‘proposition’, ‘construction’, ‘constitutivity’ and ‘materiality’.
First, ‘proposition’ means selecting and converting one of numerous incidents experienced by students into an incident of descriptive concept. In other words, students select one of various stories they experienced through a propositional reference called ‘A is B.’ Second, ‘construction’ means specific reference of three elements of history including ‘time’, ‘space’ and ‘human being’ that can be considered as core structures for expressing an incident referred by students. Especially, if the core structures are not referred, the concreteness and substantiality of such contents may deteriorate, so this part is very important. Third, ‘constitutivity’ is the part showing the progress in an incident referred by students. In other words, an incident is proceeded gradually or in phases rather than it is proceeded simply, and students often summarize such incident in a simple expression. Fourth, ‘materiality’ is the method to maximize the expression. Here, virtual concepts including ‘proper noun’, ‘symbolic number’ and ‘clear metaphor’ were set to maximize the expression of students.
In this study, it was intended to extract and introduce the methodology based on the cases obtained through numerous counseling processes carried out by this author in Kwangwoon University. These contents were introduced in a daily newspaper recently, drawing attention from many students preparing for employment, and such contents were introduced intensively based on the specific counseling record. It is expected that the result of this study can be used as a clue for solving the youth unemployment problem that university students in our country are currently facing. |
