- Abstract
In the contemporary plural society, ethical quality is an indispensable characteristic of citizens. Of all the ethical qualities, the author believes that moral judgment is one of the most important ethical qualities. This article uses the citizen ethics course as an example to explain how to cultivate students’ ethical qualities. The author believes that the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates’ dialogistical method is helpful to cultivate critical thinking ability and moral judgment ability. Therefore, this course develops students’ ethical qualities through discussion of civic ethics issues.
