Abstract |
In the fourth industrial revolution, University general class should solve two kinds of task. First one is human being’s unique existence other than artificial intelligence. That is to establish human’s ego identity. Second one is to educate convergence and creative person according to major University’s educative aim following changes of the time.
In traditional classes, self-introduction forms have been understood as writing forms with practical purposes, often written for employment and tied together with resumes. In its original sense, the self-introduction form has a self-narrative nature that discovers and reflects on the self. Especially, to meet main character similar with University students who are standing in front of start line establishing their own life through literature is very important to extend their self-narrative internally and externally.
Although many universities aim to improve students creativity, it is difficult to demand and expect this. The writer has reconsidered the concept of literacy in college writing education by asking whether the cause of this phenomenon is in the way of teaching. Literacy can be understood as the ability to read and write. It is worth noting that writing, out of the two basic types of literacy, has been used relatively narrowly than reading not only in daily life but also in writing classes. In order to cope with a rapidly changing era, writing now needs to have a different outline from the past, which was confined to texts.
To use self-introduction videos as class texts is needed to be focused in that the two tasks were interrelated innovatively. It is expected that the creativity of the learners can be enhanced at the point of this demarcation. Traditional self-introduction forms are written as if selling something. In the future, the writer hopes that self-introduction forms will provide learners a colorful and clear vision of their dreams. |
