Abstract

The aim of this study was to clarify the main concepts of child care education in junior high school. For this report, four hypothetical concepts were selected to analyze the Course of Study and the home economics education textbook of junior high school in the early period after World War II: (1)child care, (2)the child, (3)maternity and (4)environment of child care. The following conclusions were reached. 1. In the Course of Study and the textbook, the above four concepts and the direct description of value-formation on these concepts were lacking. 2. For housekeeping skill at the present and readiness for motherhood in the future, the objective of education was mastery of the knowledge required for child care. The teaching and preparation for future mother-hood was centered around this. 3. In this context, it could read that the concept of child care in this period was "loving rightly and bringing up", and the subordinate concept of child care was "home upbringing" with purpose to foster sociality.
