Analysis on the Current Situation of Death Education for College Students in China

Abstract

A person's life is like a book, with birth as the cover and death as the back cover. People can't change the cover and back cover, but the stories in the book can be written freely. Birth, aging, illness and death are unchangeable natural laws, but people can choose what attitude to face. The development of death education can guide college students to treat life and death correctly, understand the value and significance of life and death, and face life better. This paper analyzes the present situation of the development of college students' death education in China through literature analysis, and puts forward some suggestions to promote the development of death education in China, so as to provide reference for further research and the formulation of relevant policies. It is necessary to carry out death education from the following three aspects: the government should improve relevant policies; universities should establish a death education system; and society should build a good death education environment.
