Based on extensive field testing and the work of contemporary psychologists, Courageous Teaching is concerned with the contemporary demand for 'values education' in the classroom. The author provides a model which incorporates the 'New R's' - reflection, responsibility, relationships and respect - into the school curriculum.Among the most pressing educational problems are those regarding human relations - specifically how students relate to one another, themselves and their environment.
