峰地光重の郷土教育に関する考察 : 「生活主義教育」としての郷土教育

抄録

The aim of this paper is to examine the education practiced by Mitsushige Mineji at elementary schools from the 1920s to 1930s. Mineji considerably changed the style of his education along the way, but he had a consistent intention in his practice. His teaching practice of 'Life Education' was intended to deepen children's recognition of 'life'. In as far as he focuses on children's recognition skills, his practice of 'Nativeland education' in the latter period of his teaching career can be considered to be the same.' Here I focus on his 'Tudurikata' (Life Composition) practice of 'Nativeland education'. His practice of this cannot be equated with the so-called 'Nativeland education' to understand society and its changes which has been focused on in previous research. It can, however, be seen as an extension of the first half of his practice of teaching.
