The teacher plays an important role to establish the moral climate in which student assimilates and acculturates to dominant moral value. The teacher’s appearance, leadership and teaching approach will influence the socialization of students in classroom.

A survey questionnaire was developed to investigate the relationship between teaching approach and positive moral atmosphere in a classroom.
