New publication in The New Educational Review
The article What do University Teachers Think about the Teaching in Ethics and Citizenship in the European Higher Education Area?, written by Francisco Esteban, Maria Rosa Buxarrais and Teodor Mellen, has been recently published in the journal The New Educational Review (ISSN 1732-6729).
Abstract:
Ethics and citizenship education has become the focus of considerable debate since the construction of the European Higher Education Area. That this should be so is interesting, as it is a type of education that forms part of the educational mission of the university, as its history plainly demonstrates. Ethics and citizenship education cannot be analyzed solely in terms of its pedagogical requirements, the competences that it seeks to develop, or the type of students and professionals that the world needs today. Its success also requires our exploring what university teachers understand by this type of education, the situation it currently finds itself in, and how students perceive such an education. This paper presents a case study conducted among university teachers of education, philosophy and the humanities at several European institutions.
