• Can Virtue be Taught? ——the Angle of Epistemology Cheng, Guangquan 2008 Proceedings of the XXII World Congress of Philosophy , Vol. 10 , S. 33 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 9781889680927 | 1889680923 10.5840/wcp22200810970 Abstract

    The predicament of contemporary moral education lies in the fact that we simply accepted Socrates "virtue is knowledge", and considered that the virtue can be taught as the knowledge, but we neglect that the virtue can only be cultivated in social practices. Some have realized that, but they only concentrated on revivification of the life scene in the class, such as KohlBerg's moral paradox, or class debate, leading the moral education to a debate skill and returning tothe style of Sophist who depended on eloquence. But its value and moral sense were by no means solidified, they also did what one thought was right, and followed the others, making the moral nature lose its foundation. And they got lost in putting this kind of virtue into practice.
