Elizabeth Campbell

Abstract：In this essay, Elizabeth Campbell reviews three recent books that address the ethical nature of professional practice: Knowledge and Virtue in Teaching and Learning: The Primacy of Dispositions, by Hugh Socket; The Good Life of Teaching: An Ethics of Professional Practice, by Chris Higgins; and Towards Professional Wisdom: Practical Deliberation in the People Professions, edited by Liz Bond, David Carr, Chris Clark, and Cecelia Clegg. While the first two books are situated within the context of teaching and education, the third book, as an edited volume, contains chapters that represent a multidisciplinary perspective on the work of professionals within nursing, social work, counseling, and the ministry, as well as in teaching. Each of the books engages in the careful inquiry into philosophy broadly and educational philosophy specifically from conceptual frameworks widely associated with Aristotelian virtue ethics. Writing from an applied perspective on the field of scholarship relating to the moral and ethical dimensions of teaching, Campbell applauds the books for their timely reminder of the central role or persona of the individual professional as a moral agent and ethical practitioner. She argues that within the contemporary context of teacher education, which tends either to neglect or narrowly define the ethics of the profession, such an emphasis on the cultivation of personal character and responsibility within a framework of clear ethical dispositions or virtues is a welcome contribution to the field. It enables teachers, teacher educators, and student teachers to concentrate on both the ethics of practice and the practice of ethics in the ongoing quest to further their own development of virtue, practical wisdom, and personal and professional knowledge.

总  结：在这篇文章中我开始对索克特的，希金斯的评论，和邦迪等人的。通过情境的讨论，在争论中的个人伦理支持的书。在教学的当代语境中，关于道德的讨论，如果他们出现在所有，往往强调个人的性格和形象教师，医生和他或她在一个良性的个人责任感。这遗憾的是因为，作为索克特笔记，人要求承担责任

对于自己是什么样的人是一个谁成为。同为道德的老师是不真实的。一个可以提醒戴维汉森的说法，“人谁填补了教师的作用是在教学中最重要的因素。”职业道德教学特权的教师作为一个善良，智慧，和知识医生。这三本书有助于显着走向这一目标。
