Development of a teacher education program on traditional ethics: Focusing on the ADDIE model and the Analects of Confucius

This study aimed to develop a teacher education program for traditional ethics. This is because programs aimed at improving teachers’ awareness of traditional ethical ideas are currently insufficient. For this reason, this study seeks to find a solution through a teacher education program to improve teachers’ perceptions such as misunderstandings and prejudices about traditional ethics. In addition, this study examines the educational usability of traditional ethics through this process. For this purpose, this study developed a teacher education program centered on the method of the ADDIE model and the contents of the Analects of Confucius(論語), and suggested that this program has positive implications for improving teachers’ awareness and educational usability. It is expected that the process of prejudice and misunderstanding of traditions will improve through the establishment of various teacher education programs on traditional ethics.
