What do Koreans thinks of the role of education for the development of Korea in the 21st century? The present paper examines opinions concerning education by analyzing questionnaires given to 466 people in Seoul and local cities in Korea in 1991. Korea may face accelerated industrialization, demand for democratization, expansion of international relations, and concern over unification on the way to the 21st century. Koreans expect that education will play a vital role for these problems : the study suggests directions and programs of Korean education for the 21st century. The major findings, contrary to the common practices of Korean education, which emphasize study for competitive college entrance examinations, tell us that Koreans thinks the role of education is primarly for morality and unification. We gave the respondents questions regarding the goals and the methods of education, about political, economic, and social problems in Korea and the proper role of education in solving these matters. We asked the respondents to indicate what they think by checking one of five points on a five-point rating scale. The results give us important suggestions for education policy, and make us understand what Koreans thinks about education. Among other, the respondents emphasized very strongly : (1) education for morality, (2) education for democatization, (3) education that involves inquiry and discussion in classrooms, and (4) education for unification, education that recovers the peninsula's homogeneous culture. While respondents gave higher priority to the above items, they gave lower ratings to : (1) education for economic productivity. (2) education that reaches knowledges, (3) education for global consciousness, and (4) education for capitalism or communism. In conclusion, the study is very suggestive. Korean look at education essentially from a moral point of view, which seems to be a very healthy sign for the country. Also, we are able to confirm that Koreans are eager for democratization and unification. At the same time , we should give considerable attention to the lower rations on education's economic and global aspects. Needless to say, our results should be carefully kept in mind by policymakers when designing Korean education for the 21st century.
