[논문 초록]


This article has been written from the recognition of the necessity of writing ethics, which was not dealt with extensively in KAP writing education. Foreign students sometimes, for various reasons, violate writing ethics. The reason why this is a serious issue is because an individual may become accustomed to undesirable and unethical writing habits without being aware of the immorality behind one’s own actions. However, solutions should not be found from simply accusing the learner of one’s dishonest attitude or consciousness, but solutions should be found from understanding the reality of current ‘Ethical writing’ education and from searching for ‘the direction that the education of writing ethics’ should take in KAP writing education. In this writing, studies on current writing ethics education has been done through writing materials for KAP learners, and reviewing the writing syllabuses for KAP learners. Moreover, several proposals concerning the direction of ‘writing ethics education’ for both foreign and international students are made. Now, the placement of emphasis on the importance of an ‘honest and sincere’ writing above the importance of teaching about the writing ‘method’ and the required ‘content’ is imperative. Therefore, henceforth, the issue of ‘ethics’ should be dealt with in greater part in Korean writing and it is essential that a detailed education plan with its accommodation be developed.
