• ConBaT+: Possibilities and challenges in preparing student teachers in English for plurilingual education 

      Son, Minjeong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-28)
      In this short article, I highlight some of the possibilities and challenges I have experienced as a teacher educator for English in employing ConBaT+, which is an approach that combines content-based teaching and plurilingual pedagogy. The approach aspires to promote interdisciplinary teaching, deep learning, and multilingualism as a resource by exploring a subject matter/content from different ...
    • Directed motion and non-predicative path P in Korean 

      Son, Minjeong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2006)
      In this paper, I argue that an atelic path PP headed by -(u)lo ‘toward’ in Korean is an argument of a directed motion verb on a par with its telic counterpart headed by the locative -ey ‘(be) AT’. I further argue that, despite having the same argumental status, the atelic path PP is distinguished from the goal-marking locative PP in terms of an entailment of a result state and predicativity; while ...
    • Directionality and Resultativity : The Cross-Linguistic Correlation Revisited 

      Son, Minjeong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2007)
      Recent approaches to the cross-linguistic variation in the expressions of directed motion assume a tight correlation between adjectival resultative and directed motion constructions (e.g., Beck and Snyder 2001, Mateu and Rigau 2001; 2002, McIntyre 2004, Beavers et al. 2004). Beck and Snyder (2001), in particular, argue that languages that allow adjectival resultatives also allow directed motion ...
    • Praksisnær lærerutdanning – et eksempel fra engelskfaget 

      Holmbukt, Tove Elinor; Son, Minjeong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Hovedtemaet i artikkelen er hvordan en praksisnær lærerutdanning i engelsk ved UiT Norges arktiske universitet kan videreutvikles. Vi diskuterer hvordan integrerte «praksisopplegg» kan forberede lærerstudenter ytterligere til deres profesjonelle rolle i skolen, med fokus på undervisning i engelsk grammatikk og uttale i lys av teori om språklæring. Viktige parter i arbeidet er Universitetsskoleprosjektet ...
    • Resultatives in Korean Revisited : Complementation versus Adjunction 

      Son, Minjeong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2008)
      Korean resultatives are divided into two types depending on whether the subject of a resultative secondary predicate is assigned accusative case or nominative case. The former is comparable to selected object resultatives (e.g., Mary wipe the table clean), and the latter to unselected object resultatives (e.g., John screamed himself hoarse) in English. Korean resultatives have received a great deal ...
    • Subject-verb agreement in written English by L1 Norwegian university students: Error patterns, causes, and implication for teaching 

      Son, Minjeong (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-11-02)
      This thesis investigates S-V agreement in written English by L1 Norwegian university students. The aim of the study is to chart out the most difficult conditions for S-V agreement at a later stage of L2 acquisition, which may need a special focus in explicit language teaching. The data are drawn from an analysis of learner language focusing on the feature of subject-verb agreement across different ...
    • Towards reconceptualising teacher education for English: Benefits and challenges of implementing a third space 

      Holmbukt, Tove Elinor; Son, Minjeong (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-13)
      One of the long-lasting challenges in teacher education for English is that students in English struggle with transforming their academic knowledge (theory) into classroom practice and desire a more practice-integrated course design. The present article discusses and evaluates a teaching strategy, in an attempt to provide more practice-based English courses, which intends to adopt the emerging ...
    • Transforming teacher education for English - contradictions in the activity system hindering a third-space partnership 

      Holmbukt, Tove Elinor; Son, Minjeong; Larsen, Annelise Brox (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-30)
      This paper addresses the theory–practice divide in the Norwegian teacher education programme for years 5–10. We examine to what extent crossing boundaries between the academic knowledge gained in the university and in the practice field can be achieved in the teacher education for English. This boundary crossing is conceptualised as establishing a ‘third space’ where theory and practice are ...
