Educational Theory in the Communication"s Ethics of Confucianism

&nbsp;&nbsp;This study intended to re-interpret the Confucian ethical education on the basis of the core contents in the tentative plan for seventh revision of moral education curriculum. The core contents of this revision plan include "establishment of identity of ethics", "emphasis on Korean context", "moral subjects and relationships". Based on these core contents, this study examined the Confucian relationship ethics with the scholastic approach. Findings from this study are summarized below.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Firstly, the ultimate goal of Confucian ethical education is not cultivation of virtue, but making relationships(human imperatives). This study revealed that the ideology of "making relationships" is the coexistence of "difference" and "oneness" and interpreted this ideology from the perspectives of natural laws and human nature. Furthermore, the relation between making relationships and cultivation of virtue is that the making relationships is the goal of the cultivation of virtue, and the cultivation of virtue is a means of making relationships.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Secondly, the content of Confucian ethical education is love and respect for others as a virtue for making relationships, and the methods of implementing it are ‘孝悌’, ‘忠恕’, ‘尊德性’ and ‘道聞學’, and ‘內聖外王論’. This paper re-interpreted these methods from the perspective of communication.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Thirdly, as a method of Confucian education of communication ethics, the teacher practiced by the principle of Confucian communication to help learners understand the virtue of communication. As specific content, the educational methods of 人才施敎 and 敎學相長 were introduced. 人才施敎 represents respect for students in that the teacher teaches differently depending on the quality and character of learners. 敎學相長 represents the need for coexistence of teacher and student.
