Character Education to be Held in Elementary Schools
Some of the students responded with answers such as "What is wrong with students each sharing answers in subjects they are good at?" and "Ostracizing someone from a group is bad, but that person deserves it if he usually acts strangely or fails to blend in." There were also responses such as "I sexually harassed a passing girl with my friends, but I had to do it if I were to remain in the group."
Professor Moon said, "Students who do not recognize their wrongdoings do so because they lack the ability to make independent moral judgments and act accordingly," and continued, "The paradigm of our moral education should shift to an education that promotes independent and active thinking."

I tell all my students how I hate cheaters and I get the look...
I also get the look when I put a big red X on their papers for cheating!! *beep* 'em |
