Hello,
I’m currently researching possible topics for my PhD next year, and the introduction of ethics courses in primary schools is of interest to me. I have been searching on the www for empirical evidence that supports (or otherwise) the usefulness of ethics training. I haven’t been able to find anything at this point, and was hoping you could point me in the right direction.
I believe research and evidence-based practice speaks volumes when making a decision about a programs efficacy, not to mention when making ones case against the status quo. If it is an under-researched area, then I will give great consideration to undertaking my PhD in this area. Do you know of any empirical studies?
Regards,
Rachael Sanders
