Before enforcing the current curriculum (which came into effect in 2002), we conducted a survey of students' view of home economics and their consciousness of studying the subject in junior high school. We adopted a questionnaire method and arranged questions into categories based on the course of study. The results showed the following: 1. Home Economics took the second place as the subject which junior high school students had a will to learn throughout their lives. 2. Students put a high value on home economics since they could get knowledge and skills which were useful in their real lives. 3. After studying the course, half of the students think that they have come to be able to act, taking their lives into consideration. 4. As for teaching hours, half of the students maintained the present condition and one-third of the students had desire to increase them. 5. As for the learning method, many students desire learning through paractice and experience.
