抄録

The aim of this study is research of a desirable way of Consumer Education, ・...way of how to nurture the “Consumer Citizen" in social studies. I once had an opportunity to make pubilc an image of “Proposing Consumer'', a consumer who is eager to propose something in every possible occasion. This kind of consumer can be an ideal one, taking a positive and independent action when necessary in our rapidly changing economic society. Required for this type of man are opinion‐express ability, critical mind, and will power of decision‐making. This paper shows some reseach and concrete teaching plan to improve these abilities.
