Good teachers are casting about to successfully convey to students Character Education, which is now required in New York State Public Schools.

Successful methods must:

  • Be easily accessible to students
  • Seem compelling to a diverse audience
  • Fit in to an already overcrowded curriculum

Current teaching mostly emphasizes specific, laudable virtues -- the desired result -- but they don't help students develop the skills to decide why or how to get there.

Fortunately, great thinkers over more than two thousand years of history, coupled with modern tools and language, give us the best shot yet to win the race towards civilization.

Since people learn differently, we've provided several approaches to discovering the simple wisdoms that make character understandable.
