Introduction
These resources explore moral and ethical challenges related to education, mostly in the context of the U.S. We explore these challenges in light of God’s creation order and God’s vision for relationships between human beings, and also between human beings and the created world. The topic of apprenticeships is important because it is an alternative way than schooling to provide vocational training and exposure. Germany, for example, implements apprenticeships quite successfully.
