한국 공교육체계 변천과 기독교사학의 기독교적 인성교육 방안연구

Abstract

This study is actively to seek measures how the Christian character edu- cation contributes to the Korean public education system. On this study, the study will find new alternatives by looking over modern public education and the history of Christian private school. The Christians took an active part in Korean public education in 19th century but the Christian character educa- tion is tapering off because of shrine worship which was forced by Japan, the division of Korea into north and south, enactment of the private school law, the policy on the equalization of high schools, the lawsuit related with Mr. Gang Uiseok who was a student of Dae Gwang high school and student rights ordinance. It is hard to carry out religious education even at mission schools these days. In addition, the Christian schools are forced to consider public interest as being more important than autonomy. The mission schools have tried to defend Christian values by turning the school into the in- dependent private high school. School parents look for alternatives in un- authorized alternative schools(private schools) which are outside the public education for religious beliefs. Under such reality, the meaning of public ed- ucation and the harmony of public interests and practicality will be stated on this paper. It will be mentioned in this study that the situation the mission schools face in Korean public education system and a cause of conflict in- duced among them. This study wants to find a way to solve this problem. On this basis, it seeks which direction Christian schools should go. It will be stated that effective alternative method and how the character education can apply to all the mission schools, general private school and public school in Korean public education system.
