A Comparative Study on Citizenship Education in Thailand and Japan

1调查结果作为项目的最后一年，我们对问卷调查的结果进行了分析，并对为期三年的项目进行了总结。(1)问卷调查的结果：日本人对其他人的具体情况认识和认可程度不高，教育内容与具体实践脱节。另一方面，泰国的“人权”、“和平”和“全球问题”意识较弱，强调地方和国家层面的特点。(2)对日本和泰国公民教育的建议：针对日本和泰国，从理论分析、政策分析、课程分析、教师培训分析、问卷调查结果分析等角度，提出了两国公民教育应注意和改进的地方。对于公民身份的研究，还需要更多的理论研究和实践研究的积累。(3)学习单元模式：根据公民身份的基本概念、公民身份的特征、问卷调查的结果以及对两国公民身份的建议，我们提出了小学、初中和高中的学习单元模式。这些单位涉及人权、和平、环境和发展。每个单元由17-18个小时组成。日本比较教育学会(名古屋大学，2004年6月26日至27日)和世界比较学会(古巴，2004年10月25日至29日)3研究结果的出版我们发表了为期三年的研究结果作为最终报告。

1 Result of surveyWe analyzed the findings of the questionnaire survey as the final year of the project, and summarized the three-year project.(1)Result of questionnaire survey :It was a problem that Japanese do not have concrete situation recognition and recognition of other people and educational contents were not connected with concrete practices. On the other hand, in Thailand, consciousness about "human rights," "peace," and "global issues" was weak, while the characteristics at the local and national level are emphasized.(2)Proposal to citizenship education of Japan and Thailand :For the two countries, based on the viewpoint of theory analysis, policy analysis, curriculum analysis, analysis of the teacher training, and the analysis of the result of questionnaire survey, we proposed what both countries should pay attention to and improve. As for the study of citizenship, more accumulation of theory study and practice-study is necessary.(3)Study unit model :Based on a general idea of citizenship, characteristics of citizenship, findings of questionnaire survey and proposals to both countries, we suggested the learning unit model in an elementary school, a junior high school, and high school. The units are on human rights, peace, environment, and development. Each unit consists of 17-18 hours. In addition, we suggested a learning process model in each unit.2 Presentation at academic societyThe Japanese Comparative Education Society(at Nagoya University, June 26-27,2004) and World Comparative Society(Cuba, October 25-29,2004)3 Publication of Research ResultWe published the results of research for three years as a final report.
