非宗教教育型態的一般道德教育，也就是現代普遍傳統的道德教育，大部分偏向於教條或知識性的教導，內化效果有限。本研究藉由宗教教育的面向欲探討靈性課程對提升國小學生基本德性內化效果的影響性，研究對象是以基督教的教會兒童主日學為例，利用三大面向來補足一般現代傳統道德教育之不足。一、運用靈界故事經驗的震撼引導出世界觀的轉換。二、.透過禱告之特定宗教歷程從靈界支取力量三、兒童主日學學生彼此間的團體動力學分享。這三大主軸同時並行採螺旋式課程交互運用，相互之間會互相影響。 研究結果發現，每個學生對基本德性產生改變性的靈性課程因人而異，同時親師聯繫的重要性，及靈性課程中被導引者需感受到受引導者的信任與尊重，才能真正產生內心的共鳴與交集。同時更能從研究結果中得知宗教教育確實有效的改變國小學生基本德性，藉著家庭成員間共同信仰的宗教教育可改善家人關係，而且鼓勵「兒童生死教育」在小學實施。但教師須能公平客觀的介紹各主要宗教之教義這是通識性的宗教教育。若有特定宗教信仰的教育則屬傳教性的宗教教育，其中強調除了宗教知識的教導外更重要的是要重視宗教體驗。未來展望更希望台灣能在小學課程中找到台灣宗教教育的定位，藉由宗教的愛與慈悲的宗教情操，引導學生朝向「善」的道德情操。 The traditional non-religious moral education methods form up most of our modern day moral education. Due to their dogmatic and informative nature, adaptive learning effects are limited.This paper discusses the impact and effects of spirituality courses upon promoting basic moral qualities and its’ internalization and adaptive learning for elementary school students.Using Christian children’s Sunday school as the research’s subject and example, the study focuses on the following three points and how they could supplement the deficits of a modern day moral education.1. The use of spiritual stories and impacting experience as a guide to change the individual’s conception of the world.2. Attaining strength through prayers and the journey of supporting specific religions.3. The group dynamics and interaction between students in Sunday schools. These three main interests were examined in parallel and practiced through spirally interlaid courses. It was expected that individual interests would interact and affect each other.The results showed that individual students adapted differently to basic moral qualities adapting spiritual courses. The results also showed the importance of parent-teacher communication and during the spiritual courses, it requires the guided to feel the trust and respect of the guider in order to achieve innate resonance and mental coherence.It could be devised from the results that religious education could validly change elementary school student’s basic moral qualities. Through religious education of a common belief, it is possible to improve family relationships and promote the implementation of “children’s life and death education” in elementary schools.It is vital that the teacher would fairly and objectively present most religion’s doctrines under liberal religious education. For a specific religious belief that belongs to missionary religious education, other than religious knowledge, the religious experience should be highly valued.Future prospect for Taiwan is to find the position of Taiwan’s religious education through the elementary curriculum. Through religious sentiments of love and mercy, it is hoped that students are guided towards virtuous morality.
