This study understood "the state of the token of gratitude" in school from the experience primary school teachers got the token from students' parents and they themselves, as parents, gave it to their children's teachers with the approaching method of the present condition, The purpose of this study is to have a good idea of the state of the token of? gratitude in school, which becomes a social problem, through the followed present theme, and to be a help to the role of parents and teachers for proper education.
The following is the questions coming out to achieve the purpose. First, how do teachers see the token of gratitude from their experiences? Second, what is the meaning of it for teachers from a parents' point of view? Third, what is the reaction of the distorted token of gratitude and how can it be improved?
For solving the questions, collected materials of the teachers' experiences for the token of gratitude from the deep interview with teachers working in Kyunggi-do and some parts in Seoul, and the materials of the experiences teachers themselves as parents gave it to their children's teachers were to be understood with the approaching method of the present state. In addition, 'scrap newspaper articles on the token of gratitude were used as support materials.
The conclusions coming out based on the materials are as the followings.
First, it was shown that teachers, who were subjects of this study, got the token for gratitude. They think they should not get it because it looks very negative socially, but they take it for just parents' sincerity.
Second, parents give "thanks" to teachers in the early school year, which could mean "special consideration" strongly. Such outer requirement as "priority in sorting" and "compensation", and such inner one as "proper education" and "having a good view' on their children" are reflected in '!thanks". If it means "gratitude", they think it should be given in the end of a school year, but it was shown that parents didn't give thanks to in that time.
Third, teachers think that the distorted token of gratitude should be rooted out from upper position downward. They think it necessary for schoolmasters to have morality and strong will.
Forth, it was shown that the reaction of the token, unfair dealings between teachers and parents make children miss the proper education time. Even though they lack of ability, it gives children an idea that they have "priority in sorting", and therefore it makes their upright values vague or leads to confusion in parents' judgement on their children, which can cause proper education time teachers and parents should help each other could be missed. It means it could give arrogance and prejudice by "having an unconditional good view". In addition, it has possibility to make continuous problem children because the token of gratitude prevents teachers and parents from counseling on children having an individual problem.
