Changes in the perception of college students who have learned parental education

Abstract

Background: This study is a study based on the change in the perception of parental education learning of college students who took parental education. It is to explore the necessity of parental education and what kind of perception changes college students experience before parental education, the parent education learning process, and after parental education. Purpose: based on the data obtained from direct parent education to college students who are prospective parents, this study aims to provide basic data on the importance of parent education and vitalization of parent education subjects by analyzing changes in the perception of college students about parent education. Methodology/Approach: the collected data analysis is suitable for analyzing the process of constructing subjective experience, and it is analyzed with the grounded theory method (Strauss & Corbin, 1998), which is advantageous for deriving new themes from the data while allowing the application of existing theories. Findings/Conclusions: first.University students did not recognize the importance of parental education at all before taking parental education, thought it as someone else's job, and complained of psychological discomfort about why they should take parental education. Second, these questions and discomfort disappeared like snow melts in the process of learning parental education, and it became a time to look at the parents and themselves while applying the theory of parental education to themselves. Third, after learning parental education, students not only escaped from the necessity of parent education, but also lived for themselves and expanded the framework of perception to connect the world with others including their parents. Implications: a change of thinking that can look into the present and the future. In addition, through parental education, the framework of awareness of seeing the world and others, including parents, has been expanded from life for oneself.
