Of all people involved in education, at-risk students need your help most of all. They need your assistance not only to gain academic and vocational skills, but also to gain in character.
Character Education for At-Risk Students examines the “Why, Who, What, and How” of providing character education for at-risk students. With over 300 pages filled with practical examples, Character Education for At-Risk Students can energize you and your students as you explore new approaches to teaching concepts such as honesty, responsibility, fairness, caring, and respect.
The teaching modalities and methods discussed in this book utilize emotions as a cornerstone for learning. They are techniques that are not often taught in teacher preparation courses, but they are proven to help reach the at-risk learner. Collectively, they create a tool chest for the professional educator. And, like tools in a tool chest, each has a place, purpose, and level of appropriateness.
Whether you are a teacher, administrator, or counselor, Character Education for At-Risk Students is a “must read” for those interested in building character in at-risk students.
