TEACHER AS A PERSON IN A SOCIETY  OBJECTIVES: 1. Manifesta caring attitude respect, integrity, and dignity in teaching. 2. Explain the difference between vocation and mission. 3. Discuss moral and ethical principle and values formation.  MORALITY AND THE FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLE Presented by: Jehkchel Diego Brozo Jr.  WHAT IS FOUNDATIONAL MORAL PRINCIPLE? The word principle came from the Latin word, “princeps” which means “a source or beginning.” A principle is, that on which something is based, founded, originated or initiated. A foundational moral principle is, therefore, the universal norm upon which all other principles on the rightness or wrongness of an action are based. It is the source of morality.  WHERE IS THIS FOUNDATIONAL MORAL PRINCIPLE? It is contained in the natural law. Many moralists, authors, and philosophers may have referred to this foundation moral principle in different terms. May be acceptable to believers and non- believers alike to refer to it as natural law.  WHAT IS THE NATURAL LAW? It is the law written in the hearts of men (Romans 2:15). For theists, it is “man's share in the Eternal Law of God…” (Panizo, 1964)  St. Thomas defines it as “the light of natural reason, whereby we discern what is good and what is evil… an imprint on us of the divine light…” (Panizo, 1964)  It is the law that says: “Do good and avoid evil.”  THIS IS THE FOUNDATIONAL MORAL PRINCIPLE All men and women, regardless of race and belief, have a sense of this foundational moral principle. It is ingrained in man's nature. It is built into the design of human nature, and woven into the fabric of the normal human mind. Our act is moral when it is in accordance with our human nature. Our act is immoral when it is contrary to our human nature. Our intellect and free will, make us different from and above the beast. We are inclined to do what we recognize is good, and avoid that which we recognize is evil.  PAZINO Panizo, 1964 “Writings, customs, and monuments of the past, present generations point out to this conclusion that all people on earth, no matter how savage and illiterate, have recognized a supreme law of divine origin commanding good and forbidding evil. The natural law that says “do good and avoid evil” comes in different versions" Kung Fu Tsu - "Do not do to others what you do not like others to do to you" " Do to others what you want them to do to you"- Golden Rule of Christianity. “Act in such a way that your maxim can be the maxim for all.” - Immanuel Kant  RELIGIOUS VIEWS ON MORALITY. Christian’s Perspective: “Do to others what you want them to do to you.” “Love God with all your heart, with all your mind, with all your strength” “Love your neighbor as you love yourself.” This golden rule is made more explicit through the Ten Commandment and the Eight Beatitudes. Islamic Perspective Based on the Islamic Quran >The Islamic Quran forbids lying, stealing, adultery and murder. It also teaches honor for parents, kindness to slaves, protection for the orphaned and the widowed and charity to the poor. It teaches the virtues of faith in God, patience, kindness, honesty, industry, honor, courage and generosity. It condemns mistrust, impatience and cruelty. Buddhists’ Perspective -"Hatred does not cease by hatred, hatred ceases only by love". The Buddhists state this through the eight-fold path. For them, they do good when they strive to know the truth and resolve to resist evil, say nothing to hurt others, respect life, morality and property. Muslims’ Perspective- The Five Pillars of Islam Muslims abide by the Five Pillars of Islam Prayer Self-Purification by Fasting Almsgiving Pilgrimage to Mecca for those who can afford.  LEARNERS AS A PERSON OF GOOD MORAL CHARACTER Presented by: Mary Rose Besmonte Jemely Berido John Jerard Beuno. Jehkchel Diego Brozo Jr.  WHAT IS GOOD MORAL CHARACTER? >Good moral character refers to a person's behavior that aligns with the ethical standards of their community and shows a lack of deceit or immoral actions. >Good moral character embodies several important traits and values that guide their actions and decisions. Here are a few key attributes: Integrity- They are honest in their academic pursuits and interactions with others, taking responsibility for their actions and admitting mistakes. Respect- They show consideration for the feelings and rights of others, valuing diverse perspectives and nurturing a positive learning environment.  Empathy-They strive to understand and relate to the experiences of others, demonstrating compassion and support towards peers and teachers. Perseverance- They face challenges with determination and resilience, understanding that setbacks are opportunities for growth Civic Responsibility-They actively engage in their community, understanding their role in society and Open-Mindedness- They are willing to consider alternative viewpoints and learn from others, promoting a culture of inclusivity and collaboration. This individual seeks knowledge not just for personal gain but to contribute positively to their community. They demonstrate accountability for their actions, show resilience in the face of challenges, and encourage collaboration and inclusivity among peers. By prioritizing ethical decision-making and understanding diverse perspectives, they serve as role models, inspiring others to strive for personal growth and ethical conduct.  VALUE FORMATION Presented by: John Jerard Bueno  1.COGNITIVE, AFFECTIVE, AND PSYCHOMOTOR DIMENSIONS: Cognitive: Helps learners understand values through reasoning and knowledge. Affective: Involves emotions and attitudes that shape empathy and internalization of values. Psychomotor: Focuses on practicing values through actions and habits.  2. TRAINING THE INTELLECT AND WILL: Training the Intellect: Encourages critical thinking to comprehend moral values and navigate ethical dilemmas. Training the Will: Develops self-discipline and commitment to act according to one's moral convictions, even in tough situations.  3. MAX SCHELER’S HIERARCHY OF VALUES: Values are arranged in ascending levels of importance: Sensory Values: Linked to physical pleasure and comfort. Vital Values: Concerned with health and well-being. Spiritual Values: Focus on higher values such as truth, justice, and beauty. Religious Values: Represent the highest values, such as holiness, often tied to one’s relationship with the divine.  VALUES HIERARCHY: Values are prioritized differently based on individual, social, cultural, and universal perspectives. Educators help learners form their own hierarchy, encouraging personal reflection and moral reasoning to balance personal and societal needs.  TEACHING AS A VOCATION, MISSION AND PROFESSION Presented by: jemely Berido  TEACHING AS A VOCATION: >Vocation comes from the Latin word "VOCARE" which means to call. >It requires response. If teaching is your vocation then it means: -You said YES to your call to teach! -You commit yourself in the total transformation of the learner. -You consider teaching as a lifetime commitment thus aim through the years towards quality teaching. "VOCATION IS A CALL TO DO SOMETHING LIKE TO TEACH... WHATEVER IS OUR CALLING.... THE CALL IS ALWAYS TO SERVE"  TEACHING AS A MISSION: >The word mission is derived from the Latin word "misio" which means "to send". >The Webster's Dictionary defines "mission" as "task assigned". If teaching is your mission then it means: a. It is the "task" entrusted to you in this world. b. It is your assigned task thus you've got to prepare for it! c. It calls for a continuing professional education. "ONCE A TEACHER, FOREVER A STUDENT"  TEACHING AS YOUR PROFESSION The word "professional" means long & arduous years of preparation, a striving for excellence, a dedication to public interest and commitment to moral & ethical values.  If you consider teaching as a profession then: -You must be willing to go through a long period of preparation. -You must be willing to go through continuing education (continuous development of potentials) -You must strive for excellence -You commit yourself to moral, ethical and religious values & dedicate yourself to service. "THE END GOAL OF A PROFESSION IS A SERVICE AND AS WE HAVE HEARD MANY TIMES "WE CANNOT GIVE WHAT WE DO NOT HAVE". WE CAN GIVE MORE IF WE HAVE MORE."  UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS Presented by: Mary Rose Besmonte  HUMAN RIGHTS >Human rights are a set of principles concerned with equality and fairness. >Including the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more.
