Publisher's Synopsis
Appropriate for introductory courses in the foundations of education or as text or supplementary reading in courses for potential administrators.
With its hands-on focus now even more strongly emphasized, the new edition of this clearly-written, thoughtful text does an even better job of providing students with what they need to support a program of moral/character education at either the elementary or secondary level. Coverage outlines philosophical arguments for establishing classrooms and schools as sources of moral instruction, as well as exploring pertinent theories of how to accomplish this goal.
