moral eduation in modern society
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is written for parents, teachers, and students who are striving for a complete education experience in today's society. It emphasizes the importance of moral education and stresses that this can only be attained when what is being taught and the methods used to teach it are based on eternal religious principles. These include the belief that people have both a body and a spirit and that we each have a personal mission in life. This book teaches how to build upon these basic principles in any setting to maximize the value and power of education. It turns education into a means and not just an end. This book is written from the viewpoint of a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but I believe that it would be helpful to members of any religion who wish to remain true to their beliefs in their teaching without compartmentalizing their values. The book relies on scripture references, history, and the life of the Savior formulate the principles and practical applications it presents, and then it contrasts them with present educational theories and practices. This is a well-researched and carefully thought-out book. It is an important and valuable resource for any teaching situation.
