死亡，在我国自古是个禁忌话题。死亡教育更是新生的事物，尚未在我国得到普遍认可。然而，社会上发生的种种自杀、杀人的悲剧，往往不能单纯用缺乏道德或法律意识来解释。日益凸显的社会现实问题揭示出死亡教育的必要性和重要性。高中生正处在青春期这个特殊的人生阶段，在这个时期对他们进行死亡教育，无疑会对他们的一生产生重大影响。高中生的死亡态度是怎样的？他们对死亡教育有需求吗？他们能承受这个特殊的话题吗？死亡教育到底有没有必要实施？如果必要，如何实施呢？从中我们又能收获到什么？这种种问题不经过探索就不能武断的给出答案或结论。　　　本文分为个四个部分，各个部分承前启后，逐渐递进，理论和实践结合，定量分析和定性分析结合，试图探索以上问题的答案。　　　第一部分是对死亡教育以往研究的回顾，包括国外和港澳台等地区的发展现状，阐述了死亡教育的必要性和意义。　　　第二部分是对高中生死亡态度和死亡教育需求的调查，并分析了调查结果。　　　第三部分是依据调查结果和已有文献设计死亡教育课程。　　　第四部分是根据设计的课程和实际情况对死亡课程的探索实施，并进行反思总结。本文得出的结论是，高中生死亡态度以自然接受为主，但也不乏令人担心的死亡恐惧、死亡逃避、趋近接受、逃避接受等。大部分高中生愿意在学校课程中渗透死亡知识或进行相关课程。只要课程设计合理，实施方式得当，高中生对死亡教育课程是欢迎的。他们在上课时的态度也非常积极。从课程中，我们能发掘更多的价值和意义。
