Using Stories about Heroes To Teach Values ERIC Identifier: Publication Date: Author: Sanchez, Tony R. Source: ERIC Clearinghouse for Social Studies/Social Science Education Bloomington IN. There has been a renewal of concern during the 1990s about teaching and learning valuesstandards that everyone should have about what is good or bad. And leading educators have recommended stories about heroes as a main means of teaching and learning values. Teaching methods that stress only cognitive skills in the analysis and clarification of choices about values have fallen from favor. The current trend is against teaching neutrally about values. Rather, the trend is for teaching values in concert with methods of analysis and judgment that yield answers about right and wrong, better and worse concerning personal behavior and the common good (Leming 1996). Prominent educators recommend that certain widely held values or virtues should be at the core of the school curriculum for the purpose of systematically developing the character of students. They stress the integration of cognitive development and character development through "perspective-taking, moral reasoning, thoughtful decision-making, and moral self-knowledge" (Lickona 1993, 9). And they also urge the use of personal modelsheroesin history, fiction, and current events to exemplify and encourage emulation of particular virtues or desirable traits of character, such as honesty, civility, courage, perseverance, loyalty, self-restraint, compassion, tolerance, fairness, respect for the worth and dignity of the individual, responsibility for the common good, and so forth (Leming 1996; Lickona 1991).

You know how to facilitate student questions, BUT... do you know where to find the answers? A link to a possible answer is still not an answer. Library services go beyond the walls of the library. Libraries can save you time when you are seeking information. Edited materials (books, periodicals, reference, documents) often offer the most accurate and efficient information. And you don't have to search to find the authority or date. Passing up the library may mean you pass up free online resources available 24/7 at your library. You could even end up paying for the same services from another source. The most important sources for students (and those that they often miss) are those the school may already pay for. Iowa provides access for all Iowa public and school libraries to high quality reference materials and journal indexes that you won't find on the free Internet. Still feeling overwhelmed? Here's an

Using Stories About Heroes to Teach Values by Tony R. Sanchez November 1998 RECENT TRENDS IN VALUES EDUCATION There has been a renewal of concern during the 1990s about teaching and learning values standards that everyone should have about what is good or bad. And leading educators have recommended stories about heroes as a main means of teaching and learning values. Teaching methods that stress only cognitive skills in the analysis and clarification of choices about values have fallen from favor. The current trend is against teaching neutrally about values.

Including Historic Places in the Social Studies Curriculum October 1997 by Marilyn Harper Places have powerful stories to tell. They speak through relationships to their settings, their plan and design, their building materials, their atmosphere and ambience, their furniture, and other objects they contain. They can evoke the ghosts of the people who once lived and worked there. These places provide physical evidence of how broad currents of history affect even small communities. Supplemented with primary or secondary written and visual materials, they also teach such skills as observation, working with maps, interpreting visual evidence, evaluating bias, analysis, comparison and contrast, and problem-solving. Teaching with Historic Places, a program administered by the National Park Service's National Register of Historic Places, offers a variety of ways to share this "power of place" with students across the nation. At the heart of the program is a series of more than 50 classroom-ready lesson plans based on historic places listed in the National Register. These lessons allow teachers to use historic places to bring the new standards in geography, history, and social studies into their classrooms. PROJECT BACKGROUND During the 1980s and early 1990s, many people interested in saving historic places came to see what was usually called "heritage education" as a way to: (1) use places as lively and challenging resources to enrich teaching and learning for students, (2) help teachers, preservationists, and others to work together in their communities, and, ultimately, (3) encourage and strengthen public commitment to preserving these places. A survey conducted by the National Trust for Historic Preservation in 1990 identified more than 600 heritage education programs.

Graduates will not be eligible to teach each of the six separate subject areas. The minor subject area (e.g. History, Political Science) will be listed separately on the teaching license and can be taught as a separate subject in the classroom. Individuals are also prepared to teach interdisciplinary or "fusion" courses in the secondary schools. Fusion courses integrate elements of several Social Studies disciplines and require preparation of a composite nature. American problems, area studies, civics and social problems are a few of the content areas that fall under the Broad Field license. The Broad Field license also provides a foundation for certification in additional Social Studies subject areas at a later date. Secondary admission eligibility requirements: minimum 54 transferable college-level credits (junior standing); minimum 42 credits in the major; minimum 2.75 cumulative grade point average in the major; 2.75 GPA on all transferable college level course work (

OAS_AD('Top'); Public Schools Fail to Teach History, Study Charges Tuesday, September 09, 2003 OAS_AD('Middle'); That's the theme of a provocative report about U.S. civics and history education that is drawing praise from leaders and groups whose views span the ideological spectrum. Albert Shanker Institute search Based on studies of text books, research by authors and other reviews, the report contends students get a distorted account that their country is irredeemably flawed. Schools should offer a more positive tone but should avoid propaganda or patriotic drills, the report says. Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars search Over the past 30 years, the percentage of people under 25 who vote has dropped 15 percentage points, the report says. It cites other signs of apathy and disengagement, such as when children touring Washington said they knew Memorial Day as "the day the pools open." Hoover Institution search "It's important that students understand not only our flaws and failings, but also the degree to which the United States was really the first modern democracy and the degree to which it has inspired democrats around the world," Diamond said. "It's a call for balance; it's not a call for purging from the history books honest criticism of our failings." The report has drawn support from Republicans and Democrats, left-leaning and right-leaning think tanks, teachers unions and school administrators. Those who have signed on include former President Clinton and Jeane Kirkpatrick, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and U.N. ambassador under President Reagan.

I maintain a large number of web sites on the Chumash Indians of southern California. Teachers and student contact me frequently, to ask for information about the Chumash and about on-line curriculum information. The purpose of this web site is to offer a selection of curriculum sites, to help teachers and parents looking for new classroom materials on the internet. Inclusion in this list is not necessarily meant as an endorsement but rather to provide ideas for further exploration of the web. And don't forget to contact the many Chumash bands and associations listed at Chumash for first-hand information from the Chumash themselves [who you will find, have their own network of information on good teachers and curriculum materials in their local communities as well as on broader tribal issues]. Social Issues In the Classroom "A number of parents have contacted me in recent years, expressing concern with some elementary and secondary course offerings which avoid frank discussions of racism and religious intolerance in California's past. Programs under criticism focus exclusively on 'safe' topics such as the clothing, food, housing, boats, and fishing technologies of the Chumash while carefully skirting the more disturbing ethical issues involved in the treatment of California natives who were reduced to only a fraction of their pre-contact populations during the California Holocaust.

History seems to be more popular than ever with the public. Progressive and postmodernist scholars have questioned the uses of history. Nonetheless, history remains a central feature of the school curriculum for these reasons: -History shows us what it means to be human. -History improves judgment. -History provides instructive examples. -History makes us better thinkers. -History supports common cultural understanding and dialogue. -History satisfies a need for identity. -History gives pleasure. -Studying the past is preparation for the future. 2003 Michael G.

This is a permanent good, not because "history repeats" - we can never exactly match past and present situations - but because the "tendency of things" shows an amazing uniformity within any given civilization. As the great historian Burckhardt said of historical knowledge, it is not 'to make us more clever the next time, but wiser for all time.'" -Jacques Barzun

Wife puts bigamist behind bars Textbooks flunk test By George Archibald THE WASHINGTON TIMES Hundreds gathered at Valley Baptist Church in Bakersfield, Calif., March 16, for a prayer meeting for Karen Watson, a missionary killed in Mosul, Iraq. MAYA ALLERUZZO (THE WASHINGTON TIMES) Social studies textbooks used in elementary and secondary schools are mostly a disgrace that, in the name of political correctness and multiculturalism, fail to give students an honest account of American history, say academic historians and education advocates. "Secondary and college students, and indeed most of the rest of us, have only a feeble grasp of politics and a vague awareness of history, especially the political history of the United States and the world," says Paul Gagnon, emeritus professor of history at the University of Massachusetts. Most textbooks, produced by a handful of giant commercial publishers, are exposing generations of children to cultural and history amnesia that threatens the very basis of American free institutions and liberties, warn leading historians who are calling for better-defined, more rigorous state teaching standards. "Less than half knew the Supreme Court could decide a law's constitutionality," he said in the Albert Shanker Institute study titled "Educating Democracy: State Standards to Ensure a Civic Core."

Do textbooks teach democratic values? A reception study of a ninth grade civics textbook Veronika Kalmus University of Tartu Conference paper, presented at the Sixth International Conference of the International Association for Research on Textbooks and Educational Media (IARTEM) in Tartu on September 20-22, 2001 One of the common problems faced by new as well as established democracies all over the world is political apathy and low levels of participation among the young generation. Young people usually show little interest in social-political topics; also, casting a ballot is a more common among older people (see, e.g., Taru, 1997). The 'life-cycle effects' theory (Conway, 1991) suggests that people tend to become politically more aware and active when they grow older, at least, in the United States of America. In the case of disrupted democracies such as Estonia, the situation is, however, more critical: the prospects of an evolving civic nation and participatory democracy in those societies are not very promising, when a large part of the young generation displays passivity and the lack of interest in any political matters. The role of civic education curricula and textbooks is to prepare pupils for participation in a civic society. Civics textbooks should teach the principles of
