As defined by Dr. Thomas Lickona, character education is the deliberate effort to develop virtues that are good for the
individual and good for society. The objective goodness of virtues is based on the fact that they:
- Affirm our human dignity
- Promote the well-being and happiness of the individual
- Serve the common good
- Define our rights and obligations
- Meet the classical ethical tests of reversibility (Would you want to be treated this way?) and universalizability (Would
you want all persons to act this way in a similar situation?).
