Abstract (2. Language): 
The education focuses in the development of moral values that they guarantee social cohesion, as well as the definition of tools that they make an adequate participation in the society and in the improvement of the coexistence. In this sense, the education of character, like a theory within the moral formation’s field, it promotes the teaching and the learning of some determined moral values in order that the student body behave morally in the distinct situations of life, most of all in the first levels of evolutionary development of the person. From this theory, the moral is understood like self-regulation and auto-construction of virtuoso habits, defending a new idea among knowledge and moral action. The moral educator cannot be a Socratic interrogator, as it proposes the theory of the development of the moral judgment, but a defense counsel and transmitting of determined contents morals, that they are organized through didactic units.
