A Theory of Moral Education is a book about rational moral education. Hand opens the book by drawing attention to one of the most basic facts about morality – that people often disagree about what is and what is not the right thing to do. In some cases of moral disagreement, one party obviously has the better view; however, some moral disagreement is between perfectly reasonable people. When confronted with peer disagreement about morality, it is hard to say exactly who is right and Hand points out how this problem impacts on moral education. We tend to educate our children together, even though we sometimes have very different moral views and very different hopes for the moral outlook that our children will adopt. What, then, should we teach our children about morality if we do not agree about what morality requires? Speaking practically, to encourage parents to keep educating children in common schools requires a certain level of commitment from them; if all parents do not ‘buy in’ to common schooling, they may withdraw their children from common schools, leading to social fragmentation. Speaking theoretically, educational thinkers reserve a special kind of condemnation for educators who teach the wrong thing about important and disputed matters like morality or politics; this is called ‘indoctrination’ and in the moral classroom teachers must apply special care not to be guilty of it. Hand summarises the problems that arise for moral education if we disagree about moral standards as the difficulty of reconciling three claims:

正确答案,错误问题:评《德育论》

《德育论》是一本关于理性德育的书。汉德通过提请注意关于道德的最基本事实之一来打开这本书——人们经常在什么是正确的事情和什么是不正确的事情上存在分歧。在某些道德分歧的情况下,一方显然有更好的看法;然而,一些道德分歧发生在完全理性的人之间。当面对同伴对道德的分歧时,很难说到底谁是对的,汉德指出这个问题如何影响道德教育。我们倾向于一起教育我们的孩子,尽管有时我们对孩子将采用的道德观有非常不同的道德观点和非常不同的希望。那么,如果我们不同意道德的要求,我们应该教我们的孩子什么?实际来说,鼓励父母继续在普通学校教育孩子需要他们做出一定程度的承诺;如果所有的父母都不“接受”普通学校教育,他们可能会将孩子从普通学校退学,从而导致社会分裂。从理论上讲,教育思想家对在道德或政治等重要和有争议的问题上教错东西的教育者保留了一种特殊的谴责;这被称为“灌输”,在道德课堂上,教师必须特别注意不要犯这种罪。如果我们不同意道德标准,汉德总结了道德教育中出现的问题,因为难以调和三个主张:如果所有的父母都不“接受”普通学校教育,他们可能会将孩子从普通学校退学,从而导致社会分裂。从理论上讲,教育思想家对在道德或政治等重要和有争议的问题上教错东西的教育者保留了一种特殊的谴责;这被称为“灌输”,在道德课堂上,教师必须特别注意不要犯这种错误。如果我们不同意道德标准,汉德总结了道德教育出现的问题,因为难以调和三个主张:如果所有的父母都不“接受”普通学校教育,他们可能会将孩子从普通学校退学,从而导致社会分裂。从理论上讲,教育思想家对那些在道德或政治等重要和有争议的问题上教错东西的教育者保留了一种特殊的谴责;这被称为“灌输”,在道德课堂上,教师必须特别注意不要犯这种罪。如果我们不同意道德标准,汉德总结了道德教育出现的问题,因为难以调和三个主张:教育思想家对那些在道德或政治等重要和有争议的问题上教错东西的教育者保留了一种特殊的谴责;这被称为“灌输”,在道德课堂上,教师必须特别注意不要犯这种罪。如果我们不同意道德标准,汉德总结了道德教育出现的问题,因为难以调和三个主张:教育思想家对那些在道德或政治等重要和有争议的问题上教错东西的教育者保留了一种特殊的谴责;这被称为“灌输”,在道德课堂上,教师必须特别注意不要犯这种罪。如果我们不同意道德标准,汉德总结了道德教育出现的问题,因为难以调和三个主张:
