I have to think of questions, but I find it's difficult because I do not know how to frame it for their context as Korean students and the context for different age groups (such as, middle schoolers would find some different things to be more fun than elementary students and vice versa). I wish I could find a first person recounting of their life in each age group. Some games come and go, but the psychology is there. A good psychological guide for their culture and the problems and idea of fun, rewards and punishment would be good as well. Kids are very playful here too. How they got from humorless and stiff in Confucian classes days to more playful in class than even troublemakers in American schools, I have to wonder. One good thing about middle schoolers is, they sit down; the bad thing is, they are more shy and less likely to talk to you than sleep, talk to each other in Korean or play computer games. Thanks!
