Value statements are being developed in schools which are used in their policies and their code of ethics. Many of these values reflect a broader value of restorative justice, which includes respect, truthfulness, dependability, self-control, self-discipline, acceptance, responsibility and accountability.
I believe that values are taught and learned at an early age. If the teaching is successful, as it was in my case, the student should hold true to the values that he or she was raised with. Everybody is raised with different values, whether the difference is religious, moral, or social, and they should all be respected by others. I will not change or alter my values because they are very important to both my family and me, and I firmly believe in them.
The need for ethics and morality in education is more important now than ever before. The emergence of the single and two working parent family have led to the rise of the "latch key" child: the child who basically raises himself due to the absence of parents. Ethics and morality are also necessary in our schools to create individuals who are compassionate towards one another and of the world surrounding them.
Creating a learning and safe environment where students can grow through a system the gives them the attention and healthy activities they need to expand their minds. I got a quote from John Gatto in his writing “We Need Less Schools, Not More” he states “education is about discovering the meaning and purpose of oneself” (54). Gatto is illustrating that a working education system should push students towards the path of what they enjoy and what they want to learn so they can understand their meaning and purpose when they graduate and walk off into the world. That is why I agree with Gatto on his view of helping students find out there purpose and meaning and adding on to that Gatto also incorporated the importance of making students unique as he also was quoted for saying “your education should make you unique” (56). The importance of being unique is because you bring a different aspect to the table when another people speak upon different ideas. You are able to see things others cannot. Incorporating a trait such as unique will take time but will only benefit us as a country that is why I installed it into my education
Effective character education programs need to include many main beliefs. It is said that “Character education promotes core ethical values as the basis of good character.” This means that some values which include caring, honesty, fairness, responsibility, and respect for self and others are all essential to building character education. The hope is that schools that implement character education programs look at these values as obligations for the student to uphold. The second thing that character education needs to have is thinking, emotion, and behavior.
Like involving in local activities and encouraging followers to volunteer for community service. Creating value for the community is one way for leaders to link the mission and goals of an organization with the broader purpose of the community (Northouse, 2013, p. 229).
The reasons we educate our children have changed over time. However, some of the core values remain the same. One of the most important purposes of schooling is the transmission of a culture from one generation to the next. It is important to pass on our culture, values, and beliefs to our children so we continue to have a cohesive population. Schooling offers opportunity to our children by teaching them valuable skills that allow them to be self-sufficient and lead successful lives. Schooling also serves to decrease the social ills those without an education suffer from. A final purpose of education is to create people who are active in civic life.
Values are meaningful to each and every person. They teach direction. They tend to shape a person as they grow into an adult. They also have a lot to do with a person’s attitudes. They give a small explanation for some for some of the attitudes that people have. Everyone is raised differently, with very different values. Values are things that most individuals develop as a young child. Most values are taught by family. One of the all-time important values to almost everyone is family. Almost because not everyone is fortunate to have a loving family, or any family at all for that matter. No one can replace my immediate family. No matter what my family goes through, they’ll always be there for me in the end. They provide guidance for when its
My core educational values define what I believe is necessary tools students need to be successful. Such values are provided by the community of people (educators, parents, business partners) who touch the students’ lives. I value knowledge because without awareness of specific content, students are not able to truly feel a part of society. I value development of skills in order for students to apply their knowledge. When skills are applied, students demonstrate their knowledge and ability to function in our current world. I value critical thinking in our students so they can extend their knowledge and skills to solve complex problems benefitting our present and future. I value citizenship and feel that education has a responsibility to model and nurture character qualities in our students. Educating students is raising them equipped with tools that will enable them to function as contributing participants in a productive society. Knowledge, skills, critical thinking, and citizenship are educational values at the core of developing a student ready for the world’s challenges.
Values will determine how you live and are affected by the world around us. They direct our daily life and help us to make choices in a situation when you are not sure what to do. They identify who we are and our beliefs and they molded our way of life. Everyone has his or her personal collection of values. Every person’s value differs from one other. These values are made up by way of one’s life experience, religious beliefs, heritage and family history. Values are the representation of a person’s moral guidelines.
Education plays a vital role in shaping tomorrows’ leaders. Not only can we become a better nation by acquiring the skills necessary to be productive members of a civilized society. Increase knowledge to actively achieve and meet challenges that can produce changes in which are productive for attaining business innovations, political and economic objectives.
Values, norms and culture are essential to society’s survival. Roles and standards give groups within a society structure and allow members to know what’s expected of them, socially. As a teacher, parent or leader of a group, you’re expected to teach the group to be conventional and conform to society. It is basic human nature to have the desire to pass on our own values, norms and culture to our kids and/or those we are in command of. We often resort to educating them based on values we’ve been taught by society.
Students need to be inspired to think critically. By this they comprehend what has been learned and be able to use it. I hope my students will be able to achieve their greatest potential that they can accomplish anything they set their minds to. We can give our children these building blocks thru education to use in decision making situations, moral value of their thoughts and actions. This will guide them to realize how their actions and decisions will affect themselves and others.
