Having focused on the values and effects of reforming curriculum at the college level, this
paper analyses the reform case of Writing Across the Curriculum(WAC), which has been
implemented for the last seven years(2006-2013) at Chonnam National University(CNU) in South
Korea. First of all, drawing upon various approaches from WAC theorists, the study discussed the
concepts and characteristics of WAC. Then, the case of WAC in CNU was compared and
analyzed by employing the survey results conducted in 2006, 2007, and 2009. The results
revealed that the WAC shows the possibilities of enhancing learning outcomes,
compared to the other course. For example, the WAC courses confirmed the values of
writing and learning outcomes through argumentative writing assignments and feedback,
regardless of academic field. Finally, the study discussed the effects of the CNU case with the
survey results and suggested the effective ways of improving the operation system including a
professional committee. In conclusion, the authors emphasize the importance of sharing the
objectives of curriculum reform and of making cooperaton between the leadership and faculty
members at the college level.
