“…Agnieszka Bates [33] combines perspectives from phenomenology, psychology, cultural sociology, and policy studies to form a unique theoretical framework that reveals how the ideas of positive psychology, emotional intelligence, and Aristotelian beauty have found their way into the classroom; he believes that the core of current character education is the idealized, self-reliant, resilient, atomized individual; suggested that students' well-being can promote by connecting them with the lives of others. Jonsson Olafur Pall et al [34], based on a literature review of the neo-Aristotelian framework and Kantian concepts of morality, based in part on qualitative and quantitative data collected from the three schools where Laxdaela Saga accepted educated for six weeks, put forward the research of quality education through literary works and emphasizes that students can better understand moral issues in literary stories.…”

“…For example, Scandinavian teachers ask a similar question: "How can Laxdaela Saga be used as a vehicle of character education for teenagers?" (Jonsson, Haroarson, Siguroardottir, & Joelsdottir, 2019). Therefore, it is very important for the students to use the textbooks which initially contain these opportunities for the formation of a morally complete personality.…”

The article presents a concept of creating a textbook on literature for undergraduate Russian-Chinese languages major students, and therefore taking courses of Russian and Chinese literature. The relevance of the present research lies in the necessity to develop the strategy of moral education of the students undergoing professional training. The authors have used the activity-and-competence-building approach; they propose that the textbook should be regarded as a laboratory of creating a person's morality. According to the authors, a full-fledged moral person is an individual who strives for obtaining high moral qualities and who realizes the inconsistency with the ideal. The article demonstrates the samples of educational materials and tasks that will help the reader to come to certain moral conclusions and get a lesson in humanism, team spirit, patriotism, tolerance, etc. The authors show the use of comparative analysis, which creates an idea not only of the proximity of various elements of content and form in Russian and Chinese literature, but also of the similarity of moral criteria in assessing the personal values of two nations. Examples of texts taken from literatures of different countries and various time periods, possessing a certain typological similarity in the range of topics brought up by the writers,these examples convince us that although ethical criteria, in contrast to moral laws, although they are based on them, but they possess an overtemporal nature, they are eternal, universal.

“…According to Retnasari et al (2021), the implementation of character education programs in schools strengthens and shapes students' behavior. However the highest academic goal is the development of learners' personalities as a whole by changing their attitudes from negative to positive, destructive to constructive bad to noble, including maintaining the good character it bears (Jónsson et al al., 2021). Some research on character education is carried out in a limited context, namely in the classroom.…”

The results of the research are that there is no significant relationship between character and learning outcomes of Physical Education at Middle school students. Thus it can be seen that character values do not have an impact on improving learning outcomes in the Physical Education subject in Junior High School students, this is because the implementation of character in the physical education subject has not yet been implemented properly, so that it has an impact on student learning outcomes who are still below the limit value.
