- Description
- The article aims to contextualize and summarize essential findings from the 268 page Australian Government Report titled, Project to Test and Measure the Impact of Values Education on Student Effects and School Ambience. The project was one of a number of values education projects funded by the Government from 2003 to 2010 under the funding regime of the Australian Values Education Program. This particular report has attracted much international attention as it constitutes one of the most comprehensive evaluations of the effects of a long-term values or character education approach to mainstream schooling. Qualitative and quantitative data on the impact of values education are summarized and interpreted in light of current debates about the aims of education and the means by which learning is best conducted.
