The Diversity of Students in Korean Junior Colleges and Implications for Education

The purpose of this paper was to describe the diversity of learners within the Korean community colleges. Students were mostly from the Seoul metropolitan city and the Gyeonggi Province areas, and foreign students were mostly from China. The results show that college students’ learning styles were mainly of diverger and accommodator types. Seventy percent of the students planned to gain employments after graduation. The diversity of students was not a big issue in the college teaching and learning situations, but the college-level support for teaching and learning existed. The results point to some suggestions for the education of various learners.
