Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the meaning of home education as perceived by Intellectuals during the Patriotic Enlightenment Period (1905-1910). The term ‘Home education’ first appeared around the early 20th century and is a modern term that began to be used in earnest after the Patriotic Enlightenment Period. The meaning of ‘Home education’ can be summarized as follows: First, Home education had the meaning of a field of modern education. ‘Home education’ was new knowledge learned intentionally and professionally through public discussion. Additionally, it was considered intentional and professional education for the holistic development of children, serving as the foundation for all education.
 Second, Home education meant parents educating their children as ‘educators’. ‘Home education’ meant parents with modern knowledge educating their own children. Parents had to possess specialized knowledge about child education for their children's happiness and ultimately for the independence and prosperity of their country.
 Home Education during the Patriotic Enlightenment Period has value in that it began as education that everyone, regardless of status and gender, should learn as a field of modern regular education, and it provides insights into the ‘educational role of parents’ today.
