Abstract

The old moral education has noting to do with humans' practical life.The modern transformation of moral education has descended from a higher to a lower place,from internality to externality.It should be regarded as means rather than purpose,emphasized to common people rather than to the virtuous.Such moral education is simple,practical and human,as it meets the needs of modern moral education;however,it is forced education and will weaken the power of moral education.As a matter of fact,such transformation reveals the crisis in moral education.The question that how moral education takes its transformation is still in inquiry as we could not run to an extreme for another completely new education.
