The goal of moral education is to help students do moral behavior with good character. That good character is to think, to judge, to act morally. So the purpose of this study is to apply the 'MIND-MAP method' to moral education. Here the 'MIND-MAP method' is the basis of Brain Theory. The Brain consit of left one and right one. The left brain is logic and analytic while the right brain is creative and imaginative. Util now, 'the left brain element' has been emphasized in education while 'the right brain element' has been neglected. The 'MIND-MAP method' finds out an effective method to approach a goal of moral education. First, in this study I think that moral education needs originality and imagination. Those help to judge and act the state of affairs morally and variously. Second, in middle school moral education, I think students must recognize the basic conception of morality. Moral conception take various meaning on state of affairs. So students present various meaning on moral conception. To use moral curriculum of middle school 'the MIND-MAP method', I divide into grade and unit according to the Mind-map method. I divide the contents of moral education into four areas: private life, home․neighbor․school life, social life and ethnic․national life. Third, I posed students same questions after the class on 'MIND-MAP method' to find the effect. The students said the effect on that class like this "we found that it was easy to take a note and to approach to moral cases and it remained in our memory for a long time." Consequently, in moral education using the 'MIND-MAP method' helps them to develop their good character: to think, to judge and to act morally. Thanks to this study, students can come to apply moral concepts to various stages. The 'MIND-MAP method' is proper other subjects as well as the moral subject. But especially, in middle school moral education, the 'MIND-MAP method' can help them to think, judge and act morally.
