“…In line with this development, Silcock and Duncan (2001) highlight the following prerequisites for ethical education and values. (1) Process condition: the most appropriate circumstances for the integration of ethics and values within the school into the lives of children must, at least in part, include their voluntary commitment at a certain stage of this process.…”

“…The central problem is somewhat narrower, concerning the issue of the role of moral theory in the context of professional education and training of teachers and other educators. Modern approaches to ethical education, and hence to the education and training of educators, emphasise integrative methodologies (Silcock, Duncan, 2001). Thus far, concern regarding the role of moral theory has not been specifically clarified within them.…”

One of the central questions of ethical education is the role that moral theory could or should play within it. This concerns not only the issue of pedagogical work with children, but also the establishment of professional education and training for teachers and other educators. Contemporary approaches to ethical education emphasise the importance of integrative models and methods, but the issue of moral theory within them has not been explicitly addressed at length. The aim of this paper is thus reflected in the following building blocks and steps. In the first part, I present the concept of ethical education and the field of moral theory. In the second part, I synthetically illuminate the importance of moral theory for ethical education.

“…Learning values should have: a) a process condition: optimal conditions for the integration of values into students' lives would include students' voluntary commitment; b) a conceptual condition: values learning should lead to personally transformed relationships between students and the topics considered worthwhile; and c) a contextual condition: since learning values is the core of formal education, there has to be some consistency between what is learned and the wider sociopolitical scene. Because teaching values is crucial to education, it should become a consciously internalized guide for behavior (Silcock and Duncan 2001).…”

The objective of the “United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development”, during the period 2005 to 2014 is to integrate the principles, values and practices of sustainability in all aspects of education. The aim is to stimulate behavior changes, which will allow the creation of an economic, social and environmentally sustainable future. Sustainable entrepreneurial behavior is relevant for carrying out these changes. This paper tries to find the way to promote a sustainable entrepreneurial vision through the incorporation of new values for teaching/learning of potential entrepreneurs from the moment when the idea is born for creating a for-profit, non-profit or hybrid organization. Generating a change of perspective from the beginning of the entrepreneurship process is sought for fostering the birth of organizations that respect the environment and are responsible when confronting social problems, besides being profitable. All this involves a great challenge to all agents implicated in the process

“…Education not only involves acquisition of knowledge and practical skills but also dispositions, virtues, ideas and practices aimed at character and habit formation. Because publicly prioritised activities and values are targeted by educators, it is important that special conditions for the way they are learned should operate (Silcock & Duncan, 2001).…”

If I lose my key in Canada, for instance, and I search for it in the United Kingdom, how long will I take to find it?This paper argues that problems in education are caused by non-professional teachers who are employed when trained teachers move in search of promotion friendly activities or financially rewarding duties. This shift of focus means that policy makers in education act without adequate professional guidance. The problems in education, therefore, result from demands made on mainstream education based on misconceptions about what education can offer.It is argued that the implementation of e-learning in education faces the risk of developing on the basis of unproven theories. This scenario increasingly sees the replacement of formal education activities in institutions of learning with non-formal and informal education practices. Given that the contents and influences of non-formal and informal education are not under the control of the teacher, the experiences that learners bring to education settings are increasingly difficult to manage. The paper proposes that by integrating e-learning in teacher education and rewarding 'good teaching', there is a potential for a successful elearning revolution in education.
