Seven Strategies for Cultivating Virtue in the University – Event Signup

Session Leader: Michael Lamb, Executive Director of the Program for Leadership and Character, Wake Forest University

Description: In this session Michael Lamb will provide a theoretical framework and practical examples for seven strategies of character development: (1) habituation through practice, (2) reflection on personal experience, (3) engagement with virtuous exemplars, (4) dialogue that increases virtue literacy, (5) awareness of situational variables, (6) moral reminders, and (7) friendships of mutual accountability. Based on work at Wake Forest and with the Oxford Character Project, these seven strategies offer potential guidance for educators who aspire to develop character education programs in their institutions.
