2.1 Culture Education

2.1.1 Definition of the culture education

The culture education is a society phenomenon that created by the people in the longtime. At the same time, it is also historical phenomenon, social and historical sediment. Critically speaking, culture is history、geography, local conditions and customs, traditions, way of life, literature and art, behavior standards, the mode of thinking, the value of these countries and nations. 

Education is to train a person's social practice activity. General education "refers to a destination of all affect the person's physical and mental development of social practice activity. The special education mainly refers to the school education, namely educators should according to requirements of the society and the pedagogue law of development, with targets, plans and organizations in the body and mind of the instructions influence, expect to happen by educators of expected changes activities. Education is the human society characteristic social phenomenon, with the generation and development of human society and production, the development up (with the human society has education).

2.1.2 Classify of the culture

In the west, the culture education was paid close attention easily. In the early medieval period, the traditional classical literature course is involved in cultural teaching (Chris and Nation, 2002). By extension, culture refers to the human in the society in the process of historical development created the sum total of the material and spiritual wealth. It includes material culture; system culture and psychology culture three aspects (Nieto, 1996). Material culture refers to human creation of all kinds of material civilization, including traffic tools, clothing, daily articles, etc, is a visible dominant culture; System culture and psychology culture separately referred to life system, family system and social system and way of thinking, religious belief, aesthetic temperament and interest, they are not visible to the recessive culture. Special culture is to show people common social habits, such as the basic necessities, customs, life style, behavior standard (Phinney and Jean, 1996). According to these contents of the classes, it not only introduced history and geography of the Roman Empire systematic, and it also introduces the ancient People's Daily life. However, it is clearly that the cultural factors did not become the important contents of the English language learning until 20 centuries. During this procedure, different countries obtained a series of achievements on the culture education. In recent years, all countries in the world paid more attention on the national culture and cultivate national spirit education.

2.1.3 Research on the culture education

The purpose of this kind of culture education is not to help learners to cross cultural barriers, specific to use the language (Kane, 1997). The research of the culture education started and boom after the First World War. In that stage, the research of the German culture teaching had the German nationalism color. And in such certain period, the fascist Germany, culture teaching paid more attention on the Germany culture which makes the students more enjoy the Germany culture. So the culture education is not scientific and perfect (Wang, 2008). For the culture education of the college, the research of it is increased and creative yean after year. Many countries averted their national consciousness of the propaganda and promotion on the important position. It also takes this to train qualified citizens, to improve citizens' ideological and political quality. #p#分頁標(biāo)題#e#

The scholars emphasized the patriotism education for its citizen’s education priorities (Payne, 1997). The culture education is emphasized on the benefits for the students to learn knowledge. The United States is a nation of immigrants, and it has gathered the kinds of different races in the world. So the different culture convergence here and must cause many cultural differences (Nunan, 1988). The issues such as the race, immigration and others in the United States are more and more serious. 

According to this schedule, the culture education need to have the opportunity to understand the ethnic culture group or the differences between countries, identity in the target language country or group member of experience and thinking Angle and so on(Madaus and Kellaghan, 1992).. Through these practice, its benefits for use the native culture of customs and thinking habit to understand the history. It emphasized the purpose of culture teaching in addition to the ability of listening, speaking, reading and writing. And the learners can request with another culture of harmonious communication office. And in some countries, the earliest foreign Russian official put forward such a foreign culture teaching methods. The scholar Komarovski publishes a book which aims to introduce the basic contents and meaning of the culture education.
