This study aims to examine trends and future tasks of the Korean language education researches which use quantitative research methods and quantitative analysis in particular. In this study quantitative research methods are understood as statistical analysis-based research methods. In the quantitative analysis-based researches numerical materials are collected (characteristic aspect of the materials) and the materials are processed using statistical methods (processing aspect of the materials). The following points are examined. Firstly, a problem of subclassification of the quantitative method-based Korean language education researches is dealt with. Secondly, the two aspects, i.e. the collection of numerical materials in the Korean language education researches and the statistical processing of them are presented and a typical order of their statistical processing is examined. Thirdly, a problem of the quantitative indicator playing an important role in the collection of quantified materials is examined. The problem refers to what kind of quantitative indicators are used in corpus studies, and what kind of studies can be used in order to implement new quantitative indicators. Lastly, the study is concluded with a question on how the quantitative studies should deal with criticism on the quantitative analysis-based studies stating that the studies conducted in an artificial environment with restricted variables have difficulties in properly explaining complicated teaching-learning conditions. In order to examine recent trends in the quantitative analysis-based Korean language education studies this study examined research methods used in articles from three academic journals on Korean language education published in the last five years (from 2010 to September 2015). The examination revealed that 185 papers used quantitative analysis. Among them studies utilizing descriptive statistics were most common. In case of studies utilizing inferential statistics, comparative studies verifying differences between groups or variables, correlative studies showing relations between variables, effect relationship studies showing effect relations between variables and classification studies classifying variables or groups were distinguished.

소개
본 학회의 설립 목적은 한국어와 한국문화 교육의 활성화를 꾀하는 것이다. 다시 말해, 한국어와 한국문화 교육을 의한 바람직한 연구 방향을 모색하는 것이 본 학회의 근본 목적이다.
최근 한국어 교육의 중심 축은 한국어의 언어적 지식 교수가 아닌 의사소통능력의 신장을 위한 교수로 옮겨가고 있고, 그 변화과정에서 한국문화 교육 역시 자연스럽게 한국어교육과 밀접한 연관을 맺게 되었다. 따라서 한국어교육과 한국문화교육의 방법론을 학제간의 관점에서 연구 대상으로 삼아 체계적 연구를 꾀하는 것이 본 학회의 실제 목적이라 할 수 있다.
