ドイツにおける教育福祉専門職の資格・養成制度の動向

―教育専門職の拡大と分化をめぐって―

抄録

  In Germany, since the Weimar period, the people who work in both educational and social institutions, such as day nursery, kindergarten, home and youth center, are called social pedagogue(Sozialpädagoge). Compared with ordinary teachers, the level of their qualification and the system of their training have not yet fully developed. These days, however, their number is consistently increasing and accordingly their estimation is steadily rising. The purpose of this study is to show the development and the present state of the social pedagogue's qualification and training.

  In the first chapter, I explain the origin, the legal ground, the category and the training institution of the social pedagogue. They are founded on “the child and youth welfare law” and trained mainly in 1) specialist training college for educators at elementary level, 2) college at university level for social pedagogues and social workers, 3)educational department of university.

  In the second chapter, I give a historical survey of the develpment of the training system of social pedagogue and social worker in college at university level.

  In the third chapter I consider the present curriculum of social pedagogue training in college at university level and educatinal department of university.

  Finally, I emphasize that in Germany the educational science has played the central role in the curriculum, which makes significant point of difference particularly between the social pedagogue's training systems in Germany and in Japan.
