Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book revives the age-old debate about the chief purpose of educating our children: is it the rote learning of facts or the formation of virtuous character? The author argues that the answers to many educational quandaries rest on the foundation of this question. In this book, the author provides a strong case for the virtues of moral education to be at the very heart of what we teach children in schools. The author delves into the historical context of education, citing influential figures such as Plato, Mill, and Spencer, then explores the pedagogical applications of ethics and psychology to demonstrate that moral enlightenment is subject to the same laws as other forms of cultural growth. This volume explores the intimate connection between moral judgments and the study of literature and history, and offers a framework for connecting theoretical ethics to practical conduct in the classroom and beyond. The author concludes that the key to a rewarding, well-rounded education lies not in the mere memorization of facts, but in nurturing the moral growth of young people.
