This document discusses Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development. It outlines Kohlberg's stages of moral reasoning, including the pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional levels. A key aspect of Kohlberg's research was his use of moral dilemmas, such as the Heinz dilemma, to assess people's moral judgments and determine their stage of moral development. The document also notes some criticisms of Kohlberg's theory, such as the artificial nature of the dilemmas he used.
This is my first shared presentation ever! It is my way of showing gratitude to the "slideshare community" for all the help they have given me. So, Thanks everybody! Hope you like it! :) ;)

An overview of the process of how morality developed throughout the life and it's gender controversies via discussing different theories of moral development
How moral development occurs :An exploratory study by Jean Piaget on moral reasoning i.e. all about Heteronomous morality ( moral realism) and Autonomous morality (moral relativism) in young children,its educational implications and criticism. Especially for NET/SLET/CTET/B.Ed./M.Ed./M.A and entrance Aspirants..
Kohlberg identified three levels of moral reasoning:
pre-conventional
Obedience and punishment
Individualism and Exchange
conventional
Interpersonal relationship
Maintaining Social order
post-conventional
Social contract and individual rights
Universal principle
Each level is associated with increasingly complex stages of moral development.
Lawrence Kohlberg (1958) agreed with Piaget's (1932) theory of moral development in principle and developed his ideas further. He used Piaget’s storytelling technique to tell people stories involving moral dilemmas. In each case he presented a choice to be considered.
He identified three distinct levels of moral reasoning each with two sub stages. People can only pass through these levels in the order listed. Each new stage replaces the reasoning typical of the earlier stage. Not everyone achieves all the stages.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. Moral psychology is the study of the
development of the moral sense
This is the capacity of forming judgments
about what is morally right or wrong, good or
bad.

4. Moral development is the process through
which children develop proper attitudes and
behaviors toward other people in society,
based on social and cultural norms, rules,
and laws.

5. Lawrence Kohlberg was an American
Psychologist and is known for theory of moral
development.
He agreed with Piaget's (1932) theory of
moral development in principle but wanted
to develop his ideas further.
He was particularly well-known for his theory
of moral development which he popularized
through research studies

6. A dilemma that psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg
used in his original research was the druggist's
dilemma: Heinz Steals the Drug In Europe.
A woman was near death from a special kind of
cancer There was one drug that the doctors
thought might save her. It was a form of radium
that a druggist in the same town had recently
discovered. The drug was expensive to make,
but the druggist was charging ten times what the
drug cost him to produce. He paid $200 for the
radium and charged $2,000 for a small dose of
the drug.
12/13/2014 6
7. The sick woman's husband, Heinz, went to
everyone he knew to borrow the money, but
he could only get together about $1,000
which is half of what it cost. He told the
druggist that his wife was dying and asked
him to sell it cheaper or let him pay later.
But the druggist said: "No, I discovered the
drug and I'm going to make money from it."
So Heinz got desperate and broke into the
man's store to steal the drug for his wife.
12/13/2014 7
8. Kohlberg asked the question from people
Should Heinz have broken into
the laboratory to steal the drug
for his wife? Why or why not?
12/13/2014 8
9. Kohlberg outlined three broad levels and six
more specific stages of moral development in
his theory
Levels
Pre
conventional
Conventional Post
conventional
12/13/2014 9
10. Stage 1. Obedience and Punishment
orientation
(How can I avoid punishment?)
Stage 2. Self-interest orientation
(What's in it for me?) Incentive for
good grades or doing a chore. (Paying for a
benefit)
12/13/2014 10
11. Stage 3. Interpersonal accord and
conformity
(Social norms)
(The good boy/girl attitude)
Stage 4. Authority and social-order
maintaining orientation
(Law and order morality) dictation
of morality )
12/13/2014 11
12. 5. Social contract orientation
(Awareness of laws and rules)
6. Universal ethical principles
(Principled conscience)
12/13/2014 12
13. At the pre-conventional level (most nine-year-
olds and younger, some over nine), we
don’t have a personal code of morality
Moral code is shaped by the standards of
adults and the consequences of following or
breaking their rules
12/13/2014 13
14. The child/individual is good in order to avoid
being punished. If a person is punished they
must have done wrong.
12/13/2014 14
15. At this stage children recognize that there is
not just one right view that is handed down
by the authorities. Different individuals have
different viewpoints.
12/13/2014 15
16. At the conventional level (most adolescents
and adults), we begin to internalize the
moral standards of valued adult role models.
Authority is internalized but not questioned
and reasoning is based on the norms of the
group to which the person belongs.
12/13/2014 16
17. The child/individual is good in order to be
seen as being a good person by others.
Therefore, answers are related to the
approval of others.
12/13/2014 17
18. The child/individual becomes aware of the
wider rules of society so judgments concern
obeying rules in order to uphold the law and
to avoid guilt.
12/13/2014 18
19. Individual judgment is based on self-chosen
principles, and moral reasoning is based on
individual rights and justice (10–15% of
adults, not before mid-30s).
12/13/2014 19
20. The child/individual becomes aware that
while rules/laws might exist for the good of
the greatest number, there are times when
they will work against the interest of
particular individuals. The issues are not
always clear cut. For example, in Heinz’s
dilemma the protection of life is more
important than breaking the law against
stealing.
12/13/2014 20
21. People at this stage have developed their
own set of moral guidelines which may or
may not fit the law. The principles apply to
everyone. E.g. human rights, justice and
equality. The person will be prepared to act
to defend these principles even if it means
going against the rest of society in the
process and having to pay the consequences
of disapproval and or imprisonment.
Kohlberg doubted few people reached this
stage.
12/13/2014 21
22. Stage one (obedience): Heinz should not steal
the medicine, because he will consequently be
put in prison.
Stage two (self-interest): Heinz should steal the
medicine, because he will be much happier if he
saves his wife, even if he will have to serve a
prison sentence.
Stage three (conformity): Heinz should steal the
medicine, because his wife expects it; he wants
to be a good husband.
Stage four (law-and-order): Heinz should not
steal the medicine, because the law prohibits
stealing making it illegal.
12/13/2014 22
23. Stage five (human rights): Heinz should steal
the medicine, because everyone has a right
to choose life, regardless of the law. Or:
Heinz should not steal the medicine, because
the scientist has a right to fair
compensation.
Stage six (universal human ethics): Heinz
should steal the medicine, because saving a
human life is a more fundamental value than
the property rights of another person. Or:
Heinz should not steal the medicine, because
others may need the medicine just as badly,
and their lives are equally significant.
12/13/2014 23
24. The dilemmas are artificial (i.e. they lack
ecological validity)
The sample is biased
The dilemmas are hypothetical (i.e. they are
not real)
Poor research design was used
