Moral Principles in Education

by John Dewey

EN·~3 minutes

Chapters

Description

This work offers a clear‑headed investigation into the ethical dimensions that underlie everyday classroom life. It asks what values should guide teachers and students, and how those values shape the purpose of schooling itself. By grounding the discussion in concrete examples from early‑grade lessons to high school curricula, it makes abstract moral theory feel relevant to the modern educator.

Set within a series of scholarly essays on educational theory, administration, and method, the book weaves together insights from psychology, philosophy, and practical pedagogy. It surveys a wide range of ideas—from the role of the teacher as an artist to the impact of vocational guidance—while keeping the focus on how moral principles can inform decisions at every level of school organization. Listeners will come away with a deeper appreciation of how ethical considerations can enrich teaching practice and nurture a more thoughtful learning environment.
