WHAT IS
EDUCATION?
 Education is the
process of
facilitating
learning, or the
acquisition of
knowledge, skills,
values, morals,
beliefs, and habits
.
 Value Education is the
education which enables to
understand ‘what is
WHAT IS VALUE valuable’ for human
happiness. It is all about
EDUCATION? enabling a transformation
in the human beings to
help them move from
Animal Consciousness to
Human Consciousness.
1.Value education means learning or studying
existing knowledge and cultural heritage. It means achievements for our
families, advancement in existing technology and transfers it to the next
generation.
2. Humanity has achieved a lot, the only way to preserve
it is to transfer the knowledge and technology we have by educating people
properly.
‘Value education’ is essential for building the character of future citizens,
teaching them
good values, helps them choose the right path, it gives moral value to
students.
3. Also helps students to follow their interest and find answers to the
extreme laws of the universe, it helps in preserving healthy life socially,
economically and mentally,
also helps in the cumulative ability of children by increasing their skills.
4.The civilized purpose of education is the physical and intelligent
development
of the child because through education we are living in a peaceful society.
Education has the responsibility to facilitate:
 Understanding „what to do" –What is valuable, as a
human being and
 Learning „how to do" –skills, technology

QUES. Are both required or we can do with just one of


them?
Both are important

What would be the priority between these two?


The Priority is:
 Understanding, “what to do"
 Learning, “how to do”

NEED FOR VALUE EDUCATION

 Correct identification of our aspirations: The subject which


enables us to understand ‘what is valuable’ for human happiness is
called ‘value education’ (VE). Thus, VE enables us to understand our
needs and visualize our goals correctly and also indicate the direction
for their fulfilment. It also helps to remove our confusions and
contradictions and bring harmony at all levels.
 Understanding universal human values to fulfill our aspirations
in continuity: Values form the basis for all our thoughts, behaviour's
and actions. Once we know what is valuable to us, these values
becomes the basis, the anchor for our actions. We also need to
understand the universality of various human values, because only
then we can have a definite and common program for value education.
Then only we can be assured of a happy and harmonious human
society.
 Complementarity of values and skills: To fulfill our aspirations both values
and skills are necessary. When we identify and set the right goals and produced in
right direction, this is known as value domain, the domain of wisdom, and when
we learn and practices to actualize this goal to develop the techniques to make
this happen in real life, in various dimensions of human endeavor (struggle). This
is known as domain of skills.
Hence, there is an essential complementarity between values and skills for
the success of any human endeavor. For example, I want to lead a healthy
life. Only wishing for good health will not help me keep my body fit and
healthy and without having understood the meaning of health, I will not
be able to choose things correctly to keep my body fit and healthy.

 Evaluation of our beliefs: Each one of us believes in certain things and we


base our values on these beliefs, be they false or true which may or may not be
true in reality. These believes come to us from what we read, see, hear, what our
parents tells us, our friends talk about, what the magazines talk of, what we see
from TV etc. Value Education helps us to evaluate our beliefs and assumed
values.
 Technology and human values: The present education system has become
largely skill-based. The prime emphasis is on science and technology. However,
science and technology can only help to provide the means to achieve what is
considered valuable. It is not within the scope of science and technology to
provide the competence of deciding what really is valuable. Value Education is a
crucial missing link in the present education system. Because of this deficiency,
BASIC GUIDELINES FOR VALUE EDUCATION
 Universal: It needs to be applicable to all the human beings irrespective of cast,
creed, nationalities, religion, etc., for all times and regions. EG. OXYGEN
 Rational: It has to appeal to human reasoning. It has to be amenable(OPEN AND
RESPONSIVE TO SUGGESTION) to reasoning and not based on dogmas(PRINCIPLE SET
BY AUTHORITY) or blind beliefs. (LOGICAL REASON) EG. 1+1=2 NOT 11.
 Natural and Verifiable: It has to be naturally acceptable to the human being who
goes through the course and when we live on the basis of such values it leads to our
happiness. It needs to be experientially verifiable, and not based on dogmas, beliefs
or assumptions. EG.COLD IN WINTER AND HOT IN SUMMERS is natural whereas, cold by
AC/Freezer etc. or hot by heater is not natural.
 All Encompassing: Value education is aimed at transforming our consciousness and
living. Hence, it needs to cover all the dimensions (thought, behaviour, work and
realization) and levels (individual, family, society, nature and existence) of human life
and profession.
 Leading to Harmony: The value education ultimately is targeted to promote harmony
within the individual, among human beings and with nature.
E.g. when you don’t get angry with yourself or you did not fight with your
parents/siblings then this is called harmonious relation.
SCOPE OF VALUE EDUCATION

It should include
It should include all the four levels
all dimensions of of human living
thought, namely –
behaviour, work individual, family,
and realization society and
nature.
PROCESS OF VALUE EDUCATION
E.g. onion and garlic not be eaten on regular basis (negative energy
food).
 Value education is required to correctly identify our
basic aspirations, understand the values that enable us
to fulfil our basic aspiration, ensure the
complementarity of values and skills, and to properly
evaluate our beliefs. It also facilitates the development
of appropriate technology and its right utilization for
human welfare.
 Any course content on value education needs to be
universal, rational, natural, verifiable, all- encompassing
SUMMARY 
and leading to harmony.
The value of any unit in this existence is its participation
in the larger order of which it is a part.
 The content of value education is expected to include all
dimensions of a human being and all levels of one’s
living.
 The process of value education adopted here is that of
self-exploration which includes two things: verification
at the level of natural acceptance and experiential
validation in living.
