Widespread concern across the nation for the development of character and civic virtue among children and youth has resulted in the introduction of character and citizenship programs in many public schools. Teachers participating in these programs need adequate pre-service preparation in the nation's colleges and universities. This preparation should (a) promote the ethical/moral development of future teachers through liberal arts coursework and other college experiences and (b) integrate various elements of character education into the existing teacher education program. © 1999, Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
