The tifinagh / Berber alphabet: history and current status

Two observations can be made about the choice of tifinagh/tifinaɣ as the official typeface for Berber in countries such as Morocco and Libya. The first observation is that this choice has not gone unnoticed. It has given rise to much ideological and political debate and controversy. The second is that it has imposed, on the one hand, the codification and adaptation of this alphabet to suit the phonetic properties of Berber and, on the other, questions about its history and former uses.

According to other sources, however, writing spread to Tibet via Kashmir and Turkestan.

Integrating history into a Korean as a foreign language (CLO) class - the case of the Korean School of Paris

The beginnings of teaching Korean as a foreign language (CLE) can be traced back to ancient times, when Koreans were first trading with foreigners (early 8th century). However, Korean didacticians/linguists indicate that the real beginning of CLE, as the field of research we're talking about here, only began with the founding of the Yonsei Institute in 1959, the first CLE establishment in Seoul.
