Citizenship and Moral Education in a Multicultural Society: From a Liberal Point of View

我探索了在多元文化社会中公民和道德教育的可能性和局限性。这些可能性包括：培养正义感和关怀的能力;培养在价值观冲突的情况下如何行事的正确判断;提高对有争议的公共问题的兴趣，并培养讨论和审议这些问题的能力。公民和道德教育的局限性要求教育者避免偏见和灌输。必要的预防措施包括：关于有争议问题教学的法律的框架;教师的专业精神;使学生具备发现偏见的能力;在专家的帮助下查明教材中的问题领域。

I have explored the possibilities and limits of citizenship and moral education in a multicultural society. The possibilities include: developing a capacity for a sense of justice and a capacity for care; developing a sound judgement about how to act in situations of value conflicts; increasing interest in controversial public issues and cultivating an ability to discuss and deliberate on those issues. The limits of citizenship and moral education require educators to avoid bias and indoctrination. Necessary preventive measures include: a legal framework on the teaching of controversial issues; the professionalism of teachers; equipping pupils with an ability to detect bias; identifying the problematic areas in teaching materials with the help of experts.
