尋找本心的道德：大學道德教育之行動研究

Exploring Spiritual Morality: An Action Research on Moral Education in the University

本文是一篇道德教育的行動研究，教學對象是教育研究所的研究生，研究者企圖以「全人」視野重新詮釋道德教育之教學，並強調心靈層面的道德。本文的研究目的是設計一個以心靈為導向的道德教育課程，指導學生尋找本心的道德；在課程實施過程中，觀察學生道德認知的轉變；並且指導研究生將道德相關理念應用於教學實務之中；最後是探討教師本人在教學歷程中的省思。研究者透過觀察、與學生對話、省思札記，以及學生平時作業和期末問卷調查等主要文本，作為研究資料蒐集之內容。經過一學期的道德教育教學，研究者發現：一、課堂的靜心練習有助研究生心靈的覺知，以及道德認知的提升；二、透過心靈的深度體驗，以及日常生活的實作，例如靜心與感恩的實踐，能幫助學生心靈的平和以及與他人和諧互動；三、本心的道德對研究生而言，不容易用「腦」理解，多數是用「心」去體會。文章最後，研究者並提出未來研究方向之建議。
