儒敎 倫理 敎育 적용을 통한 학교폭력예방 방안 모색

Abstract

The current school violence shows such characteristics as first incidences at lower ages, unclear boundaries between inflictors and victims, increase in mental violence, extension of persistency of violence etc. In particular, timid children become victims of school violence to suffer from physical and mental pain, and there have been cases where victims agonized to be led to suicide. However, inflicting students are ignorant about school violence and don’t feel guilty due to the routinized violence, while inflicting students’parents, as a matter of fact, are busy defending their children without sincere apology to victimized students’ parents. The Ministry of Education has come up with novel systematic measures appropriate for the newly changed times including enhancement of campaigns for prevention of school violence, promotion of sports club activities, enhancement of expert counseling teachers’activities, operation of alternative classrooms within schools, school violence prevention education in terms of measures like CCTV installation, enhancement of punishment of inflicting students and their correction, protection and healing of victimized students etc. However, the Ministry of Education encounters limitations since it has not come up with radical solutions but only partial ones. Due to lack of spaces and facilities, there is difficulty with the measure for preventing school violence in terms of promotion of sports club activities, in attaining its goal, resolution of students’ stress. And, school violence prevention education in terms of expert counseling teachers’ activities also has limitations in healing students’ hurt hearts due to lack of time for consulting. Alternative classrooms within schools have limitations as continuous education is impossible due to difficulty in time assignment and lack of budget. There are also limitations in school violence prevention education in terms of measures like CCTV installation since there are blind spots and school violence is unlimitedly possible in places where no CCTV is installed. The older generation’s incorrect way of thinking, such as the thought that it is alright to do bad things if one can evade laws, is inherited by violent students. What is overlooked in school violence prevention education along with this is the fact that we do not increase students’confidence that they can solve problems on their own. In order to overcome such limitations, school violence prevention education should come up with more continuous and radical solutions rather than the current partial and temporary measures. Confucian ethics that can be applied to the prevention of school violence include manifesting the clear character, filial piety and brotherly love, the way of Xieju etc. That is to say, it is expected that school violence can be radically prevented if students restore their originality, extend their love to surrounding people based on their parents’ warm love, and practice the way of putting themselves in other people’s shoes which the way of Xieju. is in that they consider others’ minds based on their own hearts.
