Abstract
Worth In essence, education is about teaching people how to feel and think. It involves cultivating the proper emotions and sentiments and is the training of the heart. There are no cognitive skills involved that can be taught. It is ‘caught’ rather than taught, much like poetry. It basically comes down to setting the correct environment, imitating and learning by doing, and emulating a communion with nature or an ideal. One argument against this viewpoint is that merely copying a “good” person and modeling oneself after an ideal does not endow one with morality. Morality does not just “radiate” from one individual to another. Moral growth encompasses both moral behavior and moral thought.Making logical decisions is a hallmark of moral thinking, which is a unique way of thinking. A moral person is one who does the “right” thing for the “right” reason in addition to doing the “right” thing.
Keywords: Value education, modelling, morality, emotions, rational choice
