Description

This study examined the possibility of fostering leaders of a sustainable society through hands-on workshops utilizing local resources such as traditional crafts, focusing on the differences in the composition of the program activity units. Specifically, we conducted a questionnaire survey of participants in a “Japanese candle-making workshop” using raw wax from sumac, a traditional local industry in the Chikugo region of Fukuoka Prefecture, and analyzed its effectiveness by individual activity and by order of implementation (A: practice → theory B: theory → practice). The results showed that Group A tended to be more effective than Group B in increasing participants' willingness to support and act on traditional crafts. In other words, the structure in which practical activities are conducted first is considered to be more effective in eliciting participants' interest and attention and fostering awareness of and attachment to local resources. However, it was also interpreted that practice does not necessarily make theory unnecessary, suggesting that while both practice and theory are essential, it is more effective to go from practice to theory in that order.
