An Analysis of Selected Curriculum Materials in Values/Moral Education.
Wright, Ian; Williams, David
A model for analyzing and comparing values education materials is presented. The model is based on other curriculum and evaluation models, such as those proposed by Morrissett and others (1969). The first section outlines five existing approaches to teaching values: inculcation, clarification, cognitive-developmental approach, analysis, and the Association for Values Education and Research (AVER) approach. The second section, making up the bulk of the document, contains two appendices. The first appendix describes in detail the Curriculum Materials Analysis System (CMAS) used to evaluate the curricula. The analysis instrument contains sections relating to pupil, teacher, school, and community characteristics; statement of rationale and objectives of the program; pupil activities; and teaching strategies. Using the adapted CMAS model, the second appendix contains the analysis of the following values education curriculum packages: Prejudice; Making Value Judgments: Decisions for Today; Developing Understanding of Self and Others; Lifeline; First Things: Values; Public Issues Series; and The Human Values Series.
