Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research clarifies the characteristics of Japan based on a field study on the civic knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of children in Indonesia, Korea and Japan. The first of the findings of the survey is that democracy in classrooms and schools is greatly influenced by the democratic ethos of teachers. Teachers need reflection on educational views, beliefs, metacognition and aim talk. Second, teachers' educational views and beliefs are concretely reflected in the classroom climate and lessons. Classroom climate has a strong affinity with classroom climate, which acts as a hidden curriculum in teaching. These findings suggest that the development and improvement of lessons in social studies need to be carried out on both sides of the democratic climate formation of classrooms and schools, including not only lesson structure but also the logic of lesson formation.
