Abstract
This study was undertaken to identify the necessity of homemaking education as compared with home education. To clarify the need of homemaking educat on in the curriculum, especially at the elementary level, was the initial concern. A behavior pattern in everyday life, adaptable to society, is necessary for socialization, in the form of discipline and life adjustment techniques. Home edecatinn is performed in home life in an informal situation. Therefore, home education is limited in range and methods in fulfilling socialization objectives. Furthermore, skills per se may be sccomplished in home education, but life adjustment techniques can more adequately be acquired through a universal and formal education, such as can be organized under homemaking education.
