Moral Education and Teachers’ Self-Perceptions: Novice Male Teachers in the Catholic High School
Abstract
This article describes a qualitative study of six Catholic high school teachers, all male and all relatively new to Catholic education. Each subject participated in six hours of ethnographic interviews, yielding a rich description of their self-perceptions, educational competence, and faith background. Teaching as a vocation and moral education emerged as important themes for these teachers and for future study.Downloads
