The Fruits of Five-Dimensional Education
Thirty years ago, upon publishing his first book, he asserted that education should nurture individuals in a comprehensive manner. He emphasized the need for 5-Dimensional Education, which develops five key elements of a fully-formed character: intellectual strength, emotional strength, physical strength, self-management ability, and human relation ability. He stated that individuals who receive such an education would be equipped with the power to succeed in life.
It’s been 30 years since the Five-Dimensional Education movement began, and we’ve worked with more than 15,000 teachers, parents, and experts to test the claims.
