This video focuses on Aristotle's work, the Nicomachean Ethics, and examines his discussion in book 10 of the connections between education (understood in a broad sense) and ethics. Among the issues he examines are whether simply studying ethics (e.g. reading textbooks on the matter, or receiving moral training) is sufficient for moral development. Aristotle's view is that it remains insufficient without habituation on the part of the student, weaning them away from vices and towards developing virtues.
