Our survey analysis shows that it is quite low interms of numbers for school-teachers to paydirect attention to “search for meaning in lifeand/or mental pabulum” and “self-formation andself-expression” which are connected to the developmentof personality, although there seems to beno disagreement on the significance of theseviewpoints. In the analysis, it is shown that togive shape to the viewpoints, establish usefuleducational methods and try not to incline towardan infusing type of appreciative education, we should clarify the concepts of important termssuch as “individuality” and “personality” that areindispensable, and should have a uniformity of views on how “critical and analytical thinkingand insight” function in education.
Taking up “appreciative education for childrento ponder the significance of their own life” isregarded as part of art education for children toponder the significance of their own life. Acts ofexpression and appreciation, regardless of standpoint, may reflect our activity of searching for ourproof of existence. Those who are involved ineducation need to understand the mechanismwhence and how acts of expression and appreciationemerge and what sort of processes they gothrough, and need to have established educationalmethods and content that suit themwithout delay.
