Summary

Is there a difference between character education and indoctrination? Are we expecting our teachers to teach morals? How can educators deal with the overlapping ideologies of character education, religion, and ethics? Lockwood has assembled a group of experts - who come from research as well as practice - to answer these and other questions. Her interviews with these leading thinkers offer practical advice on how to design and implement a workable character education program in your school or district. This book helps you answer these crucial questions: * What is character education? * Can we recognize it when we see it? * How can we tell if it's working? * Are the criticisms of character education valid? Make sure the character education program in your school or district meets the needs of staff, students, and the community. If you're trying to set up a character education program in your school, you'll want to read this book first. If you care about the quality of character education in your classroom, school, or district, you need this book.
