Holcombe Case-Based Moral Reasoning Framework (HCBMR)

How can we teach ethics as a practical skill rather than abstract theory?

The Holcombe Case-Based Moral Reasoning Framework (HCBMR) is a pedagogical model that develops moral judgment through the systematic analysis of real-world dilemmas5. By focusing on fact-relevance filtering and value-conflict identification, HCBMR trains individuals how to think—not what to think—about complex ethical trade-offs6.
