What Does It Mean to Educate the Whole Child?

The habits we form from childhood make no small difference, but rather they make all the difference.

Nel Noddings: What Does It Mean to Educate the Whole Child?, ASCD September 12, 2005 "In a democratic society," writes the author, "schools must go beyond teaching fundamental skills." For example, how much schooling is focused on happiness? Schools should address such topics as public participation, moral and social issues, and the sense of community and trust. Interesting take.   Nel Noddings is Professor of Education, Emerita, at Stanford University, Stanford, California.
