Moral Principles That Are Learnt in School But Not Applied in Life A response to Dewey
James Blaha Ed 330 9/17/02 Response #2 Dewey “Moral Principles in Education” The Moral Principles That Are Learnt in School But Not Applied in Life The moral principles that the students learn in school should be applicable to their social life as well. The fundamental idea of sharing and working coherently together in a group should not primarily be intended for classroom exercises. All the rules and polices associated with group activities, sharing ones ideas, listening as others are taking, and working in a small group are intended to develop the student’s moral principles.
