Description
Summary:碩士 === 朝陽科技大學 === 幼兒保育系碩士班 === 102 === This study is to reveal life and the spirit of education in terms of spiritual education. The purpose of this study is based on the essential concept of Christianity, divided into four quadrants: “Human and God”, “Human and Ego”, “Human and Others”, and “Human and Universe” as the core of interpreting picture books. 11 picture books from “Daosheng” publisher were selected to be analyzed in this study ranging from 4 to 6-year-old children and their learning behaviors. Qualitative research method was adopted to interpret the stories’ themes, characters, scenarios, and endings from the truths of Bible’s point of view. At the result of this study, quadrant of “Human and God”, an important idea was formed between men and God at the point of creation, revelation, and salvation of life. Next, at the quadrant of “Human and Ego”, it was found that the relationship between humans and themselves is similarly referred to as a mirror. If you have a good relationship with yourself, you tend to look at yourself as a valuable and prosperous being. On the other hand, if your self-image is established on other people’s perceptions, then you would find their imprint on you. Thirdly, at the quadrant of “Human and Others”, love and understanding are the very basic elements of creating interpersonal relationship. Finally, between the interaction of “Human and Universe”, it is very similar to the connection of human and God and has to be made in spirit and in truth to realize the mercy of God and that the world He created is so glorious and wonderful. Thus, the balance and harmony of humans and all creation can be reached. Hopefully, this study will be a reference for parents and for spiritual education staff.
