In broad sense, character education is an effort to help the new generations
understanding core human values, care about them, and behaving them thorough
explicit or hidden curriculum. Present study aims introducing the character
education programs mainly implemented in United States. For that, the definition,
scopes, foundations and efficiency of some examples of the programs were discussed.
The paper is concluded with partly critics of the programs and the points

Karakter eğitimi en genel anlamıyla örtük veya açık program aracılığıyla, yetişen yeni nesle temel insanî değerleri kazandırma, değerlere karşı duyarlılık oluşturma ve onları davranışa dönüştürme konusunda yardımcı olma gayretinin ortak adıdır. Bu çalışma, bir çok ülkede uygulanan karakter eğitimi programını Amerika Birleşik Devletleri özelinde tanıtmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu çerçevede karakter eğitiminin tanımı ve kapsamı, temelleri, uygulanan bazı örneklerinin etkililiğinden söz etmekte ve kısmen etrafındaki tartışmalara değinerek ülkemizde bu tecrübeden yararlanılırken nelere dikkat edilmesi gerektiği üzerinde durarak sona ermektedir. Çalışmada ayrıca iki paralel metne yer verilmektedir; (i) alanın önde gelen bir isminden çevrilen Karakter Eğitiminin Temel Prensipleri başlıklı bir metin ve (ii) Türkiye?den bir karakter eğitimi programı uygulaması örneği.
