Values Education?

Value comes from the latin word

valere
- which means to have a vigor, a
power to do a specific thing in
order to realize a certain urgent or
demand for something important

Values refers to interest,

pleasure, likes, preference, duties,
moral obligations, desires, wants,
goals, needs, and many other
kinds of selective orientations
which serve as criteria for action
(Rokeach, 1979)

 A thing has valued when it is

perceived as good and desirable.
Food, money, and housing have a
value because they are perceived
as good and the desire to acquire
them influences attitudes and
behavior.

 Not only material goods but also

ideals and concepts are valuable,
such as truth, honesty, and
justice.
Values are the bases of judging
what attitudes and behavior are
correct and desirable and what
are not.

school curriculum is the process
by which values are formed in the
learner under the guidance of the
teacher and as he interacts with
