ROLE OF EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN INCULCATING VALUES
VALUE CONCERNS AT SCHOOLS STAGE
One of the major debates around value education is what values should be inculcated among students.
As desired value education does not take place in isolation. It must be set in the context of the world in which we live. From an individual perspective, the core values which define basic human nature, needs to be nurtured and developed. Being honest, telling truth, expressing love, being loyal etc. are some of the core values which needs to be developed in every human being. These values develop peace and goodness in the society. These values are of binding nature and cut across regional, religious, social, cultural spectrum. These are considered to be eternal and timeless values which need to be inculcated in humans. They strive for harmony and peaceful living in the society.
Value development cannot take place in isolation; it has to develop within context of the society. Not only local values, but one needs to be educated about the global values, since both are overlapping and interact with each other in this shrinking globalised world.
VALUE INCULCATING TECHNIQUES THROUGH EDUCATION
Values can be educated through various ways, some of which are
1. Values learnt from the lives of great leaders- lives of great people from India and around the world provide insight into what values one need to develop. Lives of leaders like Gandhi ,Nehru, Sardar Patel, S.C.Bose and other great freedom

C.S. Lewis once said that “Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching.” While reading Calvin Coolidge’s Senate Speech, it was this quote that lingered in my mind most prominently. Integrity is a major value that is discussed throughout Coolidge’s speech and a value that is becoming increasingly relevant as the world continues to grow, technology increases, and society becomes more corrupt. Integrity, in itself is a very important quality that a public servant must possess, in order to be an effective leader and in order to navigate through the trials and difficulties of modern day society.
Calvin Coolidge specifically discusses these values when he talks about “Doing the day’s work.”
In the book “Hidden Worldview,” by Wilkens and Sanford, we begin to step into the bigger picture of our core beliefs and values. The inner circle is story, “the central narrative of our life.” Following this is identity, “how we see ourselves and present ourselves to others.” Next is the convictions, “those beliefs that make up how reality works for us(Wilkens and Sanford).” Flowing out of that is values or ethics, “what we believe we should do and what we take to be our highest priorities.”
CHM1 Task 2
A. Personal Values
Here are my four top personal core values.
1. One of my personal core values is honesty. Being honest is personally meaningful to me because I believe that it is important for others to know that I am trustworthy and truthful so that they can feel secure that I will act in an ethical way. By being honest I gain trust, which matters to me.
Organisational values can be described as a “belief that a specific mode of conduct is preferable to an opposite or contrary mode of conduct” (Rokeach, 1973). Some organisations describe them as their ‘guiding beacons’ whilst others describe them as part of their philosophy. As Diageo explains
‘Our values are not just words on a page – they are in our DNA. They underpin everything we do and are reflected in the day-to-day behaviour of the company.’ –
One of the hardest fought for attributes of a brand is knowing that customers consider that the brand has value. We learned in our lesson that perceived value is a key attribute towards selling a brand. Writing a value proposition and keeping it current could help these business leaders to determine and clarify the unique characteristics their business will need to identify to better market their brand. In this paper, I desire to convey what a value proposition is and how it can help leaders chart a successful course through changing times.
Treat every situation and person as an individual. My traits allow me to be accountable, responsible, independent, compassionate, respectful, honest and stay healthy are key values and principles that make up my
Core values of a person are characteristics that define that person. Everyone should know obviously what are our core values and why they have it. The values of a person are shaped throughout his life and suffer external influences from family, friends, instructors and the society in which that individual grow. As Gandhi once stated: “Your beliefs become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny.”
My five most important personal core values are honesty, integrity, fairness, compassion and loyalty.
Core values and the principles that stem from them, must be poised within the framework and intricacy of the human experience Values are strong beliefs about how the world should, how people should typically behave and the inclination
At the beginning of this course I honestly thought that my personal values and ethics all came from the same source, which was the religion I grew up following. With this course I was able to see and reflect that it is a habit that was formed and that it has become a routine that I have put myself through. I have been living a life where I was told and expect to believe what my values were I never had the change to explore it myself. The feeling that if I was able to explore myself and my values and be more open to things other then just the values that my church taught me I would have been a very successful woman now. I truly believe that it would affect different aspects of my adult life.
The two important values that I have learnt are the independence and the respect. I learnt these two values since my childhood. One of the values is the independence. Independence means that you can support yourself without owning or depending on yourself concerned with livelihood or studying. You can make decision of your life without being controlled by the others.
Confucianism has many influences on education of Vietnam and Singapore
Originated from China, Confucianism, an ethical and philosophical system developed from the teachings of Chinese philosopher Confucius, is considered as one of the largest religions in Asia, concerned with the principles of good conduct, practical wisdom, and proper social relationship. Among Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries, Vietnam and Singapore are profoundly affected by Confucian ideas in many aspects of life such as economy, policy, society and especially in education. Although both Vietnam and Singapore’s education have been influenced by Confucianism, there are similarities and differences between two countries in terms of origin, moral education
Values are principles that people hold important to them in life. As I gotten older my values have changed based on my experience, knowledge, and goals. Since I am in college and the field of social work forced me to open my eyes to different things and ideas I would 've never thought of. Five values that are important to me while I am on this journey of becoming a social worker is my education, positive energy, not judging people based on their past, a reflect and meditate on my life, and be a generous to other.
