It is interesting to think that character education can be taught in isolation. I believe that every person who works in a school environment teaches the values ​​of Educational Character, starting from the teacher, up to the administrator, up to the custodians, the canteen workers and even the bus drivers. Because we all connect with students, we all have an influence. Lickona's definition of what Character is is "character education is the deliberate effort to help people understand, care about, and act on fundamental ethical values." His statement reflects that we all have a duty, whether we accept it or not, to educate students. We can teach values ​​in our lessons and curriculum without becoming religious. Educators must teach character intentionally and then let it become part of a classroom's routine in a positive and respectful way, ensure students make productive decisions, and show compassion for one another. Personally, I believe that teaching moral values ​​such as being a good person, being honest and caring, does not require me to impose personal religious values ​​on students. If we teachers don't teach them, can we expect parents to? Maybe, but that's not always the case. Teaching values ​​can be something that can be done through daily lessons and teachable moments that often come up in our classrooms. By creating classrooms where there is a strong sense of community, installed from the beginning of the school year, we begin to teach and instill these values. The value of partnership, collaboration and honesty is something that needs to be integrated into all subjects, and not in isolation. A well-thought-out and clear classroom management plan can help teachers pr...... middle of paper ...... repressive for me. It made me think about what his school and many others need to do to implement values ​​and discipline in students. How collaboration and perseverance of parents and teachers can work and yield fruitful results. While doing research for this answer I came across the following quote by Maurice J. Elias in Edweek.org: “Character is built by how classes are run. They qualify as respect, responsibility, patience, tolerance, problem solving, cooperation, listening, fairness, justice, honesty and caring, as revealed in all the daily interactions that take place.” (Farlazzo, 2014). These words brought to the realization that if all educators could hear and internalize these powerful words, our students would be given the opportunity to become strong men and women with high moral values ​​and fantastic character.
