Abstract: The aim of this paper is to critically explore how the concept of character education has been identified in the world and to search how the contents and strategies based on character education are being used in various countries in the world. Although educational reforms and various educational reports had highlighted this necessity, character education issues have increased nationally as well as globally. The use of new trends is at a minimum. Therefore, among innovative approaches it is important to identify and determine how to apply character education approaches. It becomes very important to inculcate core values such as caring, honesty, fairness, responsibility and respect for self and others, to children and pedagogy employed by parents and teachers to teach character education to children and youth. The paper describes how the current educational system can make relevant the specific characteristics of the concept of character education.
