Abstract: A study examined teacher attitudes toward a new children's rights curriculum. Surveys of 31 eighth-grade Nova Scotia teachers and their 906 students found that the more teachers used the curriculum, the higher they rated it and the more they supported children's rights. Student support for adult rights reflected their teachers' support for children's rights. (Contains 29 references.) (TD)
