Darcia Narvaez, professor of psychology and director, Collaboration for Ethical Education, University of Notre Dame, spoke at Santa Clara University on March 12th about conscience and the classroom. The focus was on an approach called "The Common Morality Model," for integrative ethical education. Highlights included:

    Qualifications of those with "ethical expertise"
    Ethical sensitivity skills for students
    Establishing caring relationships with students and a caring classroom community
    Teaching through the apprenticeship approach
    Self-monitoring of ethical skills development

The presentation was part of "The Project on Conscience in Roman Catholic Thought," a series of talks exploring inner morals in the face of contemporary challenges, sponsored by The Markkula Center for Applied Ethics and funded in part through the generosity of Phyllis and Mike Shea.

Interview with Darcia Narvaez - Evolutionary Parenting

The Evolved Nest is a breakthrough concept that integrates findings across fields that bear on child development, child raising and adult behavior.  The Evolved Nest promotes optimal health and wellbeing, cooperation, and receptive and sociomoral intelligences. Societal moves away from providing the Evolved Nest have contributed to the ill being and dysregulation we see in one another and society. Learn how to nest your children and re-nest yourself.
