Building upon the work of Piaget, Kohlberg, Vygotsky, and Gilligan, this research explored middle school students' views of some basic concepts of morality. This is a unique research study on character and moral education. The study gathered data via individual, in-depth interviews using an interview protocol and seven vignettes designed by the researcher (patterned after Piaget and Kohlberg s moral dilemmas in interviewing children) and corresponding to the seven Noahide Laws, and classroom observation to gather data.
