Abstract

A field survey was conducted in China to verify the relationship between moral education and national character.The conclusion is as follows.

1. Moral education in China is the act of shifting what was originally home education and social education to schools.

2. Excessive consciousness to place importance on entrance examinations to universities is still strong. Although moral education is necessary to alter this state of consciousness, in reality, moral education is already strongly disseminated among generations of people with such cultural consciousness. This is one of numerous paradoxes.

3. Although home education by parents is vital to for the success of moral education, disposition of parents is gradually becoming lower, which is another paradoxical phenomenon.

4. The pressing issue in education in China is to build an educational model that is adaptable to a wide variety of values and choices in life rather than over-stressing moral education.
