Abstract

Objectives In this study, for a practical approach to a happy life, the philosophical concept of happiness is explored centered on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. The purpose of this study is to find out the plan for practical moral education through.
 Methods To this end, we conducted a literature study by examining the preceding research papers related to Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, and based on the analyzed content, we tried to suggest educational methods that can be practiced in the educational field in relation to the current elementary school morality and basic practical guidelines of the curriculum.
 Results As a result, a moderate activity according to Aristotle's practical wisdom is a moral activity, that is, a virtuous activity, and such virtuous activity does not end as a one-time thing, but can be recognized as virtuous only when it is carried out with educational continuity. Since the formation of practical wisdom is possible through long life experiences on the premise of a perfect understanding of theoretical wisdom, it is necessary to have a pedagogical perspective that enables students to habituate the understanding of practical wisdom through practice in the field of elementary school.
 Conclusions Therefore, an important purpose in moral education is an educational environment that allows students to achieve practical wisdom by themselves rather than approaching them through a knowledgeable dialogue about virtue so that they can lead true happiness and become a habit in life. It is necessary to incorporate practical moral education according to Aristotle's concept of happiness in school experience so that it can lay the foundation for habituation of virtue that can form and implement practical wisdom through self-understanding.
