Study Notes
Introduction to Value Education
- All human beings aspire for a happy, fulfilling life, and education plays a crucial role in facilitating this by developing clarity on aspirations and competence to actualize them.
- The purpose of value education is to understand what is truly valuable for human beings, which is essential for a fulfilling life.
The Need for Value Education
- The current education system is largely skill-biased, focusing on science and technology without a base of values, leading to crises at the individual, societal, and environmental levels.
- Value education is a crucial missing link in the present education system, necessary to understand human aspirations and discover what is truly valuable in life.
Understanding Human Aspirations
- Human aspirations can be understood by exploring two questions: "What is my aspiration?" and "How to fulfill my aspiration?"
- The value domain focuses on understanding what is truly valuable for human beings, which is essential for a fulfilling life.
- The skill domain focuses on learning the skills necessary to actualize aspirations.
Happiness and Harmony
- Happiness is a state of harmony within oneself, while unhappiness is a state of contradiction.
- When we are in harmony within, we are in a state of happiness, and when we are in a state of contradiction, we are in a state of unhappiness.
The Process of Self-Exploration
- The process of self-exploration involves discovering one's natural acceptance, becoming aware of "what I am," and making efforts to ensure harmony and happiness within.
- This process has two parts: verifying proposals on one's own right and experiential validation through living according to the proposal.
- The priority is values, then skills, and the process involves checking if this results in a fulfilling life.
Guidelines for Value Education
- For any input to qualify for value education, the content must be universally applicable, rational, and appeal to reasoning.
- Values should not change according to sect, creed, nationality, gender, etc.
Fulfillment of Human Aspirations
- The basic problem is that people assume happiness and prosperity will automatically come with the accumulation of physical facilities.
- However, continuity of happiness and prosperity requires more than just physical facilities; it also requires fulfillment in relationships.
- Education has a significant role to play in this transformation.
Process of Value Education
- Human values can be understood through an appropriate process of self-discovery, as they are potentially present in every human being.
- The process of value education involves self-exploration, not giving sermons or telling dos and don'ts.
- The process involves verifying proposals on one's own right and encouraging students to decide on their own values.
