Summary: | Most thinkers, educational practitioners, and parents
acknowledge that schools are not only brickstructures, which role is traditionally of informationdispensing, but, rather, schools are ought to educate
the students, and mold them into well-balanced social
beings, who are active members of the society, and
who dynamically interact with their environment. In
other words, transforming the students into
responsible ethical thinkers, who are characterized
by good judgment in all that they do, in their
relationships with others, and with themselves
.(Mathew Lipman 1993) and this is the core business
of moral education. |
