Moral Development

This comes as students continue to grow in accord with their daily life habits, routines, and in their community. They begin to perceive different viewpoints on life choices and are able to justify for themselves on these different points. The most important aspect I like about this is the reasoning. Students are growing cognitively and begin to question parents, teachers, and people of authority. They want to know the truth and logic behind everything. This is of high importance. In our historyclass, I believe I could have students looking at people that made a change such as; Martin Luther King, Bethune Cookman, Thurgood Marshall and many others and have students name the modern MLKs or Malcolm Xs of today. I would ask questions like, "If there are no modern people of this caliber why do you think that is?"
