Ethical Education : Towards an Ecology of Human Development Paperback / softback
Edited by Scherto (University of Sussex) Gill, Garrett (College of Wooster, Ohio) Thomson
Part of the Cambridge Education Research series
Paperback / softback
Description
Ethical education should help students become more sensitive to the perspectives and experiences of others.
However, the field is dominated by the teaching of moral values as a subject-matter, or by the fostering of character traits in students, or by moral reasoning.
This book proposes an alternative to these limited moralistic approaches.
It places human relationships at the core of ethical education, in its understanding of both ethics and education.
With contributions from renowned international scholars, this approach is laid out in three parts.
Part I develops the underlying theory of ethics and education; Part II focuses on the relevant pedagogical principles, and Part III provides illustrations of emergent innovative ethical educational practices in worldwide schools.
Against a backdrop of divisiveness and apathy, the innovative practices described in this book show how a new vision for ethical education might be centred around caring for students' well-being.
