Understanding Kohlberg's Post-Conventional Level

- Internal Moral Autonomy: Students rely on their own conscience rather than blind obedience to authority.
- Principles of Justice: Actions are judged based on universal concepts of fairness and equality.
- Pedagogical Application: Teachers should foster dilemma discussions, a democratic classroom environment, and critical thinking to encourage the internalization of universal moral values.
