Education for Character: An Alternative to Values Clarification and Cognitive Moral Development Curricula.
Beller, Edward
Journal of Educational Thought, v20 n2 p67-76 Aug 1986
Discusses the weaknesses inherent in Sidney Simon's values clarification method and Lawrence Kohlberg's cognitive moral development method, suggesting that single class, isolated instruction overlooks the affective, unconscious elements of character formation. Recommends an alternative holistic approach based on John Locke's concept of all education as education for character development. (Author/AYC)
