Abstract

Language barrier, the major cause of information divide in multi-cultural families, has a close relationship with the low education level of children in multi-cultural families, which is foreseen to be an additional social problem resulted from aggravating economic inequality. Parents of multi-cultural families have restrictions in making efficient utilization of existing educational contents caused by remarkably falling behind information divide comparing with those ordinary families in terms of accessibility to digital devices and data utilization ability. In order to overcome these restrictions, it is imperative to build up a customized learning contents supporting system that provides contents appropriate to the understanding level of the learners. This paper designs the Korean-to-Korean Translation based learning contents system to dissolve the information divide in the parents of the multi-cultural families and as a result, it suggests the prototype of the Korean-to Korean Translation System to support the user customized learning contents for it.
