Tnomas Lickona has advocating the idea of character education in the U.S.A. It is an attempt to cultivate good morals and ethics in students. In Japan, his work and ideas on character are being translated. The reason Mr. Lickona is advocating character development is its effective approach in developing children’s moral character and ethical behavior. In particular, I am interested in how these ideas have been used in American classes, and how to introduce them into Japanese classes.
