This lesson discusses developing a strong conscience. It defines conscience as an inner feeling or voice that guides what is right or wrong. The roles of conscience are to remind you to do good and evil, judge your decisions and actions, and bear witness to the good and evil you have done. While discipline aims for self-control, its long-term goal is building a moral conscience. The lesson provides an activity for students to identify actions as good or evil and explain their reasoning to dialogue with their conscience.
