Teaching Commitment (Remote Instruction)

  • Course Load: Scholars will teach one 3-credit course (45 hours) over three weeks.
  • Schedule: Classes are scheduled for 3 hours each, Monday through Friday (9:00–12:00 or 3:00–6:00). Mid-term and final exams will take place during the 3-week period.
  • Platform: Teaching will be conducted via the KNU Learning Management System (LMS), which supports online lectures, assignments, quizzes, and attendance tracking. Detailed guidance on using the LMS will be provided to selected lecturers.

Student Engagement: Scholars are encouraged to hold office hours to provide additional feedback and support to students.

Class Information

We would like to encourage the use of interactive teaching methods to KNU students. Given the short duration, we prefer that students are given handouts, instead of being required to purchase a text book.
※ N.B. In rare cases, a course may be cancelled due to insufficient student registration.

Financial Arrangement

KNU will provide a stipend of KRW 3.5 million (paid at the end of the course).
※ Travel to Korea is not required.
