Purpose: This study explores a novel approach to compiling life-oriented moral textbooks for elementary schools in China, specifically focusing on Morality and Law. Design/Approach/Methods: Adopting Aristotle’s Poetics as its theoretical perspective, this study illustrates and analyzes the mimetic approach used in compiling the life-oriented moral education textbook, Morality and Law. Findings: The mimetic approach involves imitating children's real activities, thoughts, and feelings in textbooks. The mimetic approach to compiling life-oriented moral textbooks comprises three strategies: constructing children's life events as building blocks for textbook compilation, designing an intricate textual device exposing the wholeness of children's life actions, and designing inward learning activities leading to children's inner worlds. Originality/Value: From the perspective of Aristotle's Poetics, the approach to compilation in Morality and Law can be defined as mimetic. And the compilation activity in the life-oriented moral education textbook also can be described as a processes of mimesis. So this article presents a new approach to compile moral education textbooks, and  an innovative way to understand the nature of one compiling activity.

This paper begins by examining so-called “spirituality movements and/or culture” in Japanese society today. It then focuses on research into spirituality as it relates to Japanese education, and specifically moral education, where, for example, our connectedness to the sublime and lofty is one of the four themes of the new moral education classes introduced into Japanese elementary schools in 2018. It is far from easy, however, to teach such a subject, since Japanese moral education is required to keep its distance from popular spirituality as well as from the institutionalized spirituality of organized religions. Furthermore, the conventional knowledge that underpins modern Japanese moral education struggles to deal with spirituality and the vast range of human existence, including our search for the purpose and significance of life. Accordingly, this paper will examine current work on such issues and attempt to outline the future role that scientific and academic approaches to religion and spirituality might play in moral education in Japan, especially from the viewpoint of human connectedness to nature and the sublime.

The main objective of this study is to explore the causes of low attendance of students in Government elementary schools. Survey method was adopted to conduct this study. Sample consists of 30 Head Teachers (HT) and 78 teachers selected through purposive sampling technique from Dhanbad and Lohardaga district of Jharkhand, India. Self-developed checklist with Yes or No options basing on different factors of low attendance was used as tool. The data were collected through Google form and analyzed by use of frequency count and percentage. It is found that causes such as working of both parents, involvement of children in domestic work, taking care of siblings, migration of parents for work, involvement in farming and harvesting, low aspiration of parents, abusive home environment, lack of interest of students in studies, poor in basic skills, lack of teachers and regular HTs in school, poor teaching strategy of teachers etc. are responsible for low attendance of students in elementary school. The study has suggested for coordinated effort from parents, School Management Committee (SMC), Government, teachers and HTs for increasing attendance of students. Further, it is suggested to provide non-formal education to illiterate parents so that they can realise the importance of education in one’s life.
