The overview lays out a map of learning objectives for Standards-Based College Curriculum for Korean Language Education, which are defined in terms of the five Cs learning objectives and divided by proficiency level. It describes a set of goals which base the level-specific curriculums in this volume and that can function as a reference and guideline for future curriculum design and development of assessment tools. Levels roughly coincide with years of instruction in the university setting, but more accurately apply to targeted learner profiles as determined by ACTFL proficiency guidelines, from novice to advanced high. Six consecutive levels and a heritage level that straddles the first and the second level are posited. The five Cs learning objectives are an expansion and elaboration of objectives presented in Standards for Learning Korean (2012), while modifying and adapting them to fit the interests and needs of postsecondary students. Objectives are presented in the order of communication (C1), cultures (C2), connections (C3), comparisons (C4), and communities (C5), with subcategories in accordance with the framework of the standards. In each category, they are bracketed into levels 1–6 and heritage level for describing level-appropriate goals as well as showing progression and difference at the junctures of successive levels.
