In addition, on the basis of respect and understanding, peer group should be made as an important medium for students' self-taught and also an effective platform for moral education through the development of group culture and cultivation of group core people, etc. Colleges and universities have always laid great emphasis on the moral education towards college students. To make moral education effective, educators should first gain their psychological acknowledgment and raise emotional resonance to satisfy their inner needs, and the peer groups, prevalent in colleges and universities, are able to provide psychological satisfaction and acknowledgment since interpersonal code of conduct, value, moral identity are more easily accepted among peer groups in colleges and universities, where the students' values and behavioral patterns are consistent with the group and it will play a significant role in their moral development.
