Teachers don’t feel always confident concerning Moral Education topics they teach to children in elementary school. Because of this we decided to know how and what future teachers in Brazilian education courses learn about Moral Education. According to the Brazilian educational law (9394/96) Moral Education must be taught as a Transverse Theme. There is not a special subject for this topic in school. Moral Education is called Ethics and must be learnt through all the school subjects. This research aimed to discover how it is taught and how these students understand Moral Education. Alasdair MacIntyre’s study about Virtue was the theoretical basis. Students were asked to talk about meaning of virtues and answered written and oral questions. They were asked to give concepts to Family, School and Country and to describe themselves in different situations. Rene Barbier’s “sensible listening” methodology was chosen and data were studied according to Laurence Bardin’s analyze. Results show that students are interested in Moral Education studies, though there are different problems concerning ethics learning.

Palabras clave : Moral Education/ Ethics; Transverse Theme; Teacher’s Training Course.
