A Study of Eudaimonia and Habituation Shown in Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics

In this paper, I suggest to take Aristotle's educational philosophy that values the cultivation of good habits as the aim of education. In Nichomachean Ethics, Aristotle expounds that a key to a happy and successful life is living virtuously. By searching for eudaimonia, the natures of excellence and the mean are examined. In order to live virtuously, one needs an education that emphasizes the role of habituation. To see whether habituation eventually will do good to the students or not, an examination of the concept of habituation was ventured. After showing that Aristotelian concept of habituation has a great educational impact, I suggest to adopt Aristotle's educational philosophy that centers around the role of habituation and virtue as the aim of education in order to lead a student to love what he has to do.
