Teacher guidelines in early bioethical education
What is this about?
This guideline provides a state of the art and needs analysis of bioethical education. It can serve as a short introduction to bioethical education and can aid teachers to adopt bioethics education and critical thinking in their curricula. The guideline was published in 2019 by the Bioethical Education and Attitude Guidance for Living Environment (BEAGLE) project, and was co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
Why is this important?
The rapid development of the field of bioethics warrants a novel educational approach to teaching bioethics. The partners of the project believe "that bioethical values and critical thinking are crucial elements, now more than ever, of the development of a democratic, pluralistic, ecologically aware and open society."
