Abstract

Language fossilization happens when learners do not progress anymore in certain features of the target language, especially in interlanguage learning context. this investigation sought to answer the following research questions: (a) What are the linguistic features in Korean language that the KFL Filipino learner participants are fossilized in? (b) Why do they arrive at such state of fossilization?. The qualitative study used narrative approach to identify the linguistic features that the KFL Filipino learner participants are fossilized in, and the reasons behind such language phenomenon, based on their learning narratives. There were twelve (12) KFL Filipino learners who participated in the study. Their narratives on KFL learning were analyzed, coded, and arranged to identify these fossilizations and the reasons behind. Findings reveal that the KFL (a) fossilizations are in sound-character correspondence, orthographical-phonological metamorphosis, language syntax, verb conjugation and suffixation in context, and vocabulary difficulty and (b) the reasons of fossilization are weak memory, language disorder, Hangeul character resemblance and  subtle differences, differences of L1 and L2 sentence patterns to Korean language syntax, lack of interest on sources of language exposure, discourse opportunities with Korean language speakers, and fear of language use due to uncertainty. These results contribute to improvement of foreign language instruction.

Abstract

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Philippine educational landscape is greatly affected. This education issue concerns the country's curriculum and instruction (CIN), covering students' learning, delivery modalities, competencies, teachers' characteristics, and community involvement. Nonetheless, the CIN must be developed, considering the students, teachers, community, and the pressing challenges in the teaching-learning process, promoting quality education while considering the pandemic, by looking into teachers' perspectives. This qualitative research used content analysis to derive insights from the critical reflections of sixteen (16) teacher participants. It aims to present the participants' reflections on the New Normal education issues, leading to curriculum and instruction development inputs. Furthermore, the emerging themes are (a) essentiality and feasibility in choosing learning competencies; (b) good quality, flexibility, sustainability, and safety in choosing learning modalities; (c) learning materials' alignment, sufficiency, and proper distribution; (d) devotion, adaptability, and helpfulness of teachers; (e) reaching out students and task individualization; and (f) leadership and involvement needed to achieve success in education. Moreover, the findings suggest that the New Normal classroom requires a curriculum and instruction, teacher, leadership, and involvement adaptive and flexible of the changing and multifaceted educational landscape brought by the persisting disease.
