Abstract

Navigating the Moral Maze is a teaching resource to help students understand and critically engage with the most pressing issues in the world today. From the destruction of Gaza to the climate emergency, from the repeal of Roe v Wade to rising inequality, young people are growing up in a world beset with moral concerns and predicaments. With this book teachers can equip students with the critical skills and conceptual clarity needed to navigate through these issues and reach a clear and articulate understanding of their own views. Each chapter features several lesson plans with activities, texts and thought experiments that help refine and enrich students' thoughts on the topics and promote discussion, thought and reflection. Topics covered include: Reproduction Euthanasia Poverty Environment Borders War Applicable to Religious Studies, Philosophy and Ethics, and touching on topics relevant to PSHE, History and Geography, this will be a valuable resource for secondary teachers wanting to enhance their students' critical writing and thinking skills.
