Description
Nel Noddings examines alternative approaches to character education in this collection of essays. She explores an ethic of care as a sympathetic approach to moral education, covering topics such as teaching methods and the practical problems of everyday classroom practice.
Through her analysis, Noddings describes the similarities and differences between character education and care ethics, and calls for greater cooperation across fields in order to infuse moral education throughout the curriculum. This book offers a nuanced perspective on the role of care in shaping moral values and practices.
