Lawrence Kohlberg, through his work in moral philosophy, developmental psychology, and education research, has provided a conceptual framework through which teachers are better able to integrate moral issues with the process and content of teaching. The purpose of this useful work is to help educators translate Kohlberg's theory of developmental moral education into practice. Concrete examples and answers to the most frequently asked questions about the theory are provided in opening chapters. Similarly, later chapters provide examples of the full range of teaching strategies prescribed by research results and actual teaching experiences. Readers will welcome the authors' clear approach to an inherently complex body of knowledge. They have provided a valuable, coherent context for understanding both the extensive nature and the limitations of Kohlberg's work.

A Classic,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Promoting Moral Growth: From Piaget to Kohlberg (Paperback)
This is a very difficult book to find, so I was pleased to see that there was a supplier on Amazon.com. The author does a superb job of integrating Piaget with Kohlberg, providing for moral development what Erik Erikson did for Freud's theories. A much need text for anyone in the fields of psychology and religious studies.

The best book on how to teach ethics,
By Professor M. (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Promoting Moral Growth: From Piaget to Kohlberg (Paperback)
This is the best book on how to teach ethics I've ever seen. I regularly recommend it to colleagues. Chapter 5 is a good place to start; it has lots of very specific, hands-on advice about how to teach ethics, including transcripts of actual class discussions. It also is solidly based on research on ethics education.
