The Teacher's Role in Character Education

Abstract

A comprehensive model of classroom character education is described in terms of nine components: the teacher as caregiver, model, and mentor; creating a caring classroom environment; moral discipline; creating a democratic classroom environment; teaching values through the curriculum; cooperative learning; the conscience of the craft; ethical reflection; and teaching conflict resolution. The article concludes with a critical examination of three different approaches for dealing with controversial issues such as abortion.
