“…Educators emphasize the creation of a school environment that blends ethical and psychological principles, facilitating the cultivation of students' character and manners over time. According to Snarey and Samuelson (2008), Kohlberg views children as moral philosophers who engage in critical thinking and construct their own understanding of morality. Therefore, teachers must establish an educational setting that fosters students' thinking abilities and aids them in making moral choices.…”

Values education spans a lifetime, commencing in homes and extending through societal influence and formal schooling. This study aims to delve into primary school teachers' insights on values education within primary education. Adoptinga qualitative method, the research relied on interviews as the primary source of data collection. The participants, drawn from ten schools in the North and South Dhaka City Corporation, were selected through purposive sampling, a subset of intentional sampling. Theoretically, grounded in Kohlberg's moral development theory, this study uncovered that introducing values education early significantly bolsters children's readiness for the future, shapes their character, and nurtures enduring values. Several actors are responsible for shaping the values of education of children. However, participants highlighted the pivotal role of parents in this educational journey. The findings suggested that valueseducation could either be a standalone subject or incorporated into existing courses, with an emphasis on using case studies and drama to impart appropriate behaviors and cultivate empathy among students.

“…He distinguishes between character and personality (Banicki, 2017), stating that the idea of character includes an ethical dimension. In the field of psychology, the contribution of Lawrence Kohlberg (1981) is important, who takes up the reflections of Piaget and applies them to the moral development of the individual (Snarey & Samuelson 2008), elaborating the model of just community schools.…”

The subject of character education has aroused increasing interest over the past decades, during which several specialised research centres have taken shape. As part of the awakening of interest in practical philosophy, extensive research on the ethics of virtues has been developed. There are some research centres, especially in the UK, which have linked character education and the development of virtues. A pedagogical framework that would be interesting to explore more deeply can be identified within the personalist approach, above all through the contribution of Thomas Aquinas. This paper develops the idea that Aquinas’s moral doctrine on virtues can be the ideal theoretical foundation for the education of character in the personalist sense.

“…It requires learning to apply ethical principles (e.g., fairness, justice, rights, concern for human welfare) to complex real-world situations (Killen & Cooley, 2014;Turiel, 2016). This learning is enhanced when young people grapple with real-life moral situations in discussions with peers (Snarey & Samuelson, 2014). In programs we studied, youth often grappled with complex issues together in ways that expanded their moral perspectives and reasoning (Larson, Walker, & McGovern, 2020).…”

Emotional skills are now widely recognized to be essential skills for young people to survive and thrive across all aspects of their lives. Teens become able to develop powerful new skills for understanding and managing their emotions. They also are able to learn skills for using the valuable functions of emotions. But this learning isn’t automatic; it depends on experience. In this commentary, we highlight key elements of youth programs that make them important contexts for youth’s active engagement in emotional learning. We present examples from research on how program staff facilitate youth development of skills to manage and use emotions. We conclude with suggestions on practices and policies that support emotional learning.
