I am reading a book that is the foundation of CapCity PCS where I will be working starting August 15. The premis of the book is how to manage the classroom to provide opportunities for ethical as well as academic growth. Nel Noddings writes the preface so the book has got to be key to the change that should be made to create more caring individuals through schooling. Charney says that it is about empathy (knowing the child) and structure (seting guidlines and limits)
Quotes: "students need to feel the power to exert self-control" and "students need to feel the power to care which gives them a greater feeling of community" (not directly quoted)
