There is no place to hide in this careful scrutiny of the teacher as crucial player in the daily morality tale that becomes the story of school life.\u003cbr\u003e -- Vivian Gussin Paley, teacher, University of Chicago Laboratory Schools\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This book takes the reader on an eye-opening journey through a variety of elementary and high school classrooms, highlighting the moral significance of all that transpires there. Drawing on the results of a two-and-a-half year study, the authors examine the ways in which moral considerations permeate the everyday life of classrooms. In addition to providing teachers and teacher educators with a new framework for looking at and thinking about the moral dimensions of schooling, the authors also offer specific suggestions about how to look at classroom events from a moral perspective.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Contents\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e One.
