The translation of the term "liberal education" is one that emphasizes human culture itself, rather than education for the acquisition of a profession or specialized skills. It originated from the idea of education in ancient Greece to acquire culture appropriate for free people. However, in Japan, it often refers to education that is practiced based on the needs of children and the creativity of educators, as opposed to traditional, uniform public education, and liberal education in this sense was particularly popular during the Taisho democracy period. Famous examples include Hani Motoko's Jiyu Gakuen, Nishimura Isaku's Bunka Gakuin, and Ikebukuro Children's Village Elementary School run by the Kyoiku no Seiki Dojinsha. → New Education Movement → Related Articles Sawayanagi Masataro Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
リベラル・エデュケーション(liberal education)の訳語としては,職業や専門技術の習得のための教育ではなく,人間の教養そのものを重視する教育という意味。古代ギリシアにおける自由人にふさわしい教養を身につけるための教育という考え方に端を発する。しかし,日本では,伝統的・画一的な公教育に反対して,子どもの要求と教育者の創意をもって実践される教育を指すことが多く,この意味での自由教育はとくに大正デモクラシー期に盛んであった。羽仁もと子の自由学園,西村伊作の文化学院,教育の世紀同人社による池袋児童の村小学校での実践が有名。→新教育運動 →関連項目沢柳政太郎 出典 株式会社平凡社百科事典マイペディアについて 情報 |
