This study aims at analyzing how high school teachers learned about moral values in general, and more particularly about justice during their school lives, and how they teach this specific value nowadays. Our proposal was to look for changes in the teaching practices and, if so, analyze such differences. Participants were twenty (20) high school teachers of private schools in Vitória (ES). We performed individual interviews according to the clinical method proposed by Piaget (1926/s.d; 1932/1994). This research has two main subjects: moral values in general, and justice. Results showed that respect was the most spontaneously named moral value, and that family was the main social context regarding moral education. Moreover, most of the answers on how they learned about moral values and justice at school were related to imposition actions. Nowadays these teachers still use imposition to teach about justice, but it is related to conversations. In short, teachers teach about justice as they ve been taught: with imposition methods. Therefore, the present work contributes to the Psychology of Morality by analyzing data from the ones directly involved in teaching practices the teachers thus offering important subsidies for interventions in their pedagogical practices as well as in their formation betterment.
