Consequently, the International Korean Educators Network (IKEN) has developed the Korean Online Curriculum (K-12th level) and Korean Online Course (Level 1 – 4) aligned to Common Core State Standards and Korean National Standards. Enhancing college ready and career ready instruction, the Korean language teachers provide second generation Korean heritage students with opportunities to master Korean language, culture, and self- identity while providing non-Korean students with vast opportunities to appreciate Korean culture as productive, global citizens of the future. These teachers will foster healthy competition among the young leaders of tomorrow who will build stronger bridges of linguistic and multi-cultural awareness throughout the world.
