I also never knew how much South Korea is vested in world economics. To hear the 10 points of SK was worthwhile in itself, but the second presentation on SK was also worthwhile. I liked the Ancient Korean history presentation, "the good, the bad, the ugly" and the myths behind them. The way China and Japan meddled in Korea for their own gains is something mentioned previously, but to gain further knowledge on what effect it had on Korea.
I also liked listening about how the in-laws used marriages for their own gains.
My only issue, is how this works in a classroom, the reading works well, but in a standards oriented, pace calendared enforced district, how can this be introduced and used? Could I use this better when teaching about Japan or China? Being in middle school, would this work better with 6th or 7th grade standards?
