Education for a high quality of life

Abstract

In our present society we need an education for change as the new social contexts requires the contemporary man to adapt faster to increasingly rapid changes in the everyday life. Failure to do so can have a significant negative impact on the quality of life. Therefore, the major problems of contemporary education are closely related to preparing students for a "new quality of life." "Quality of life" refers primarily to how people experience their life, conceive and carry out their existance. The most important objectives of education for a high quality of life aim to cultivate human qualities that will allow students to live at a superior levels in the new contexts of social life. Each of them is raising specific psycho- pedagogic challenges. The article aims to identify these qualities, analyze their psychological traits and propose an education strategy for each.
