Teaching Character and Virtue in Schools

Teaching Character and Virtue in Schools addresses the contemporary issues of quantification and measurement in educational settings. The authors draw on the research of the Jubilee Centre at the University of Birmingham in order to investigate the concern that the conventional wisdom, sound judgement and professional discretion of teachers is being diminished and control mistakenly given over to administrators, policymakers and inspectors which in turn is negatively effecting pupils’ character development. The books calls for subject competence to be complemented by practical wisdom and good character in teaching staff. It posits that the constituent virtues of good character can be learned and taught, that education is an intrinsically moral enterprise and that character education should be intentional, organised and reflective. The book draws on the Jubilee Centre’s expertise in support of its claims and successfully integrates the fields of educational studies, psychology, sociology, philosophy and theology in its examination of contemporary educational practices and their wider effect on society as a whole. It offers sample lessons as well as a framework for character education in schools. The book encourages the view that character education is about helping students grasp what is ethically important and how to act for the right reasons so that they can become more autonomous and reflective individuals within the framework of a democratic society. Particularly interested readers will be educational leaders, teachers, those undertaking research in the field of education as well as policy analysts with a keen interest in developing the character and good sense of learners today.

The books calls for subject competence to be complemented by practical wisdom and good character in teaching staff.

Morality, character, and discipline in Christian religious education

The important thing that I need to express related to the content of the learning book with the title mentioned above is that morals, character, and discipline are needed in the world of education both Christian education in particular and universal education, namely nationally and even internationally. This is said to be important, given the results of observations and some research, how the crisis of morals, character, and discipline of most of the learners during the transition of this industrial revolution era from time to time is estimated as a negative impact of their lack of skills in responding to the use of digital media that makes them dragged by the negative currents of android that has enveloped the earth. As a result, they become affected and accustomed to vulgar videos that erode their morale so that they mushroom various indecent events, the formation of good characters becomes a failure, and by spending time watching these negative things makes them lose discipline and do not know to train themselves to be disciplined. Dr. Elsina Sihombing, M.Pd Lecturer at IAKN Tarutung, Sumatera Utara -------------------------------------------------------- This is a “must-read” book. If you work in an education or know someone who does, then this book is required reading.

Character Education

A Neo-Aristotelian Approach to the Philosophy, Psychology and Education of Virtue

Many teachers want to contribute to children's moral development, but this desire has not always resulted in a profound grasp of what 'moral education' really means, why it would be desirable and how it can best be achieved. This book confronts these questions by examining what Aristotelian virtue ethics can illuminate about moral education. At the same time, it evaluates whether Aristotelian theory can still be useful for contemporary educational practice. The argument culminates in a morally justified and psychologically realistic account of how virtue can best be taught in schools. The approach, called 'character education', sees moral education not as enforcing rules or transferring values in separate subjects. Instead, it encourages teachers to be a 'morally exemplary teacher', which is revealed through all kinds of small decisions and emotional reactions. This philosophical essay takes a constructive but critical stance towards empirical research about the effectiveness of teaching methods and the realism of character traits.

Handbook of Moral and Character Education

There is widespread agreement that schools should contribute to the moral development and character formation of their students. In fact, 80% of US states currently have mandates regarding character education. However, the pervasiveness of the support for moral and character education masks a high degree of controversy surrounding its meaning and methods. The purpose of this handbook is to supplant the prevalent ideological rhetoric of the field with a comprehensive, research-oriented volume that both describes the extensive changes that have occurred over the last fifteen years and points forward to the future. Now in its second edition, this book includes the latest applications of developmental and cognitive psychology to moral and character education from preschool to college settings, and much more.
