Research Abstract |
IN THE EAST ASIAN COUNTRIES : PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA,CHINESE TAIPEI,KOUREA,HONGKONG,PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF KOUREA,THE HISTORY TEACHING BELONGS TO THE SAME WAYS. TEACHING SUBJECTS ARE EACH OWN COUNTORY HISTORY AND WORLD HISTORY. THE AIMS OF HISTORY TEACHING IN THESE COUNTRIES,THOUGH DEVELOPING THE UNDERSTANDING OF HISTORICAL TRADITIONS OF PUPILS AND STUDENTS,FOSTER THEIR PATRIOTIC SPIRITS AND CITZENSHIP. IN THESE COUNTRIES,SCHOOL TEXTBOOKS ARE ALWAYS USED IN THE CLASS ROOMS. THE STYLE OF HISTORICAL DESCRIPTIONS IN SCHOOL TEXTBOOKS ARE AS THE SAME TYPE AS THE FOURBOOKS AND FIVE CLASSICS OF CONFUCIANISM(****). THE CONTENTS OF THE SCHOOL BOOKS ARE CONSISTED BY THE GENERAL NATIONAL HISTORY IN EACH OTHER COUNTRY AND THE WORLD HISTORY OF "EURO-CENTRICISM"(=THE IMAGE OF THE WORLD HISTORY FORMED IN THE EUROPEAN MIND OF THE 19TH CENTURY). THEREFORE,IN THE EAST ASIAN COUNTRIES,THE STRUCTURE OF THE HISTORICAL MIND AND THE PERCEPTIONS OF HISTORY IS ESTABLISHED BY THE MEMORY THAT THE GENARAL HISTORY IS "LEARNING BY HEART." "NEVER THINKING BY HEAD.DON'T RESERCH THE HISTORICAL PROBLEMS." AND ALL OF THE COUNTORIES STUDENTS STUDY EACH OWN NATIONAL HISTORIY AND WORLD HISTORY.BECAUSE,THE PROBLEM OF THE HISITORICAL PERCEPTIONS IS UNIFIED BETWEEN NATIONAL HISTORY AND WORLD HISTORY.
