Values in Sex Education : From Principles to Practice

性教育很少不在新聞之列。儘管如此，對性教育的原則，政策和實踐的研究卻驚人地少。本書提供了這樣的考試，重點是兒童在性教育中暴露的價值觀。

無論教師是否打算這樣做，性教育必然涉及價值觀的傳播。在整本書中，對價值和性教育的學術和專業文獻進行了審查和討論。作者著眼於隱含的自由主義價值觀，這些價值觀是性教育方案的基礎，也是當代社會價值觀多元化帶來的挑戰。

本書還考慮：*為什麼價值觀是性教育的核心*兒童的聲音和兒童的價值觀*宗教和家庭價值觀*可達到的學校性教育目標*如何幫助年輕人批判性地反映他們所遭受的影響以及他們自身發展中的性價值觀*如何在中小學階段將價值觀建設成性教育的實用途徑。這本及時的書將幫助所有參與性教育的人士在有爭議的和經常反對的觀點之間引導一條路徑，並將為學生提供關於PGCE和BEd課程的基本閱讀材料。它也將成為參與教育性教育的教師和專業人員的寶貴資源，如個人和社會教育教師，形式導師，年度負責人，學校護士，衛生工作者和學者。

Sex education is rarely out of the news. Despite this, there exist surprisingly few studies of the principles, policies and practice of sex education. This book provides such an examination, focusing on the values to which children are exposed in sex education.

Sex education inevitably involves the transmission of values, regardless of whether this is intended by teachers. Throughout the book, academic and professional literature on both values and sex education is reviewed and discussed. The authors look at the implicit liberal values, which underpin programmes of sex education, and at the challenges presented by the diversity of values in contemporary society.

The book also considers:* Why values are central to sex education* Children's voices and children's values* Religious and family values* Achievable aims for school sex education* How to help young people to reflect critically on the influences to which they are exposed and on their own developing sexual values * How to build values into practical approaches to sex education at both primary and secondary levels. This timely book will help all those involved in sex education to steer a path between controversial and often opposing views and will be essential reading for students on PGCE and BEd courses. It will also be a valuable resource for teachers and professionals involved in teaching sex education such as teachers of personal and social education, form tutors, heads of year, school nurses, health workers and academics.
