A structured developmental module for building contextual ethical reasoning at the Rational → Pluralistic edge — developing the capacity to recognize when abstract principles produce unjust outcomes, while preserving the ability for principled judgment and resisting the collapse into moral relativism. Draws on Kohlberg, Gilligan, Johnson, and Zehr.
Develops integral ethical reasoning — the capacity to deploy appropriate ethical frameworks as skillful means, guided by the developmental level of the situation. Introduces ethical altitude and upāya as the core Teal ethical stance: meeting each being and situation at its actual level of development with the most skillful response, neither collapsing into relativism nor retreating to universalism.
A practical module for developing moral imagination as the cognitive-affective capacity that underlies integral ethics — holding multiple moral frameworks as complementary lenses, cultivating practical wisdom (phronesis), and building the character virtues that close the moral action gap.
A practical module for developing postconventional moral reasoning capacity — Stage 5 social-contract thinking, Stage 6 universal ethical principles, and Care Position 3 integrated care — through moral dilemma practice, civil disobedience case study, and a rigorous pre/trans checkpoint.
A practical module for distinguishing preconventional and conventional moral reasoning from the inside, with emphasis on Stage 3/4 justice tensions and Gilligan care Position 2 at the conventional level.
An orientation to the Moral developmental line as two fully parallel tracks — Kohlberg's justice track and Gilligan's care track — establishing that mature moral development requires integrating both, and that neither track alone provides an adequate map of full moral development.
A cross-suite integration module on moral shadow patterns by stage, moral injury recognition, and practices that close the gap between moral conviction and moral action.
Developing third-person perspective-taking — the capacity to hold one's own viewpoint as one perspective among many — as a hallmark competency of the Rational stage and a critical Amber → Rational transition skill.
A non-reductive orientation to the Pluralistic/Green stage — its genuine gifts, historical significance, and characteristic limitations — as the foundation for the Rational → Pluralistic developmental sequence.
