Good morning, everyone!

My groupmates talked about what is values education and the issues in values
formation of the Filipino students. What I will be taking about is the History of Values Education in the
Philippines. Ano nga po ba yung importance why do we study history? It is important to study history for
us to understand ano yung mga nangyari before or in the past that made things the way they are in the
present. Also, there are things na ginamit or ginawa before that became effective that we can use or
apply today for the betterment of education in our country.

 Pre-Spanish Era ay wala pa pong churches and schools. Yung education nila takes place
anywhere through their parents and it’s all about what they need during that time which is
survival; Interaction with one another revolve po sa pagiging magkadugo. marriage and
friendship.
Diplomatic skills- communication, cooperation, conflict resolution

 Spanish Era- tayo po ay na influence ng mga Spaniards with regards to religion. Inspread nila
yung Catholicism wherein until now ay ginagawa natin we give value to our religion.
Filipinos are submissive to Spaniards pinapahalagahan nila at sinusunod yung mga batas na
ipinapatupad. But there are also Filipinos who refuse to submit. Also, naging laganap during
Spanish Era ay yung tinatawag na colonial mentality which means feeling inferior or giving more
value to other country than our own. Before if marunong ka magsalita ng Spanish ay matalino ka
o mataas ka that’s why before Filipinos are eager to learn yung Spanish language.

 American Era- nagkaroon tayo kahit papaano ng freedom and independence. Filipinos started na
hindi dumepende lang sa authorities but naging independent at ability to make decisions on
your own. During this time ay inintroduce naman ni Pres. Manuel Quezon ang Code of Ethics for
Filipinos at nakapaloob dito ang good moral character, loyalty and citizenship which Filipinos
value during the American Era.

 Japanese Occupation- more on controlling sila kaya some Filipinos ay vinavalue ang pag submit
sa authority and others ay refusal na magpasakop sa Japanese.

 Post-Japanese & American Era- nagkaroon na ng moral reconstruction- character formation,

moral virtues

 Martial Law Period- Education Act of 1972vnagkaroon ng reorientation patungkol sa educational

system to advance ang ekonomiya ng bansa, magkaroon ng awareness sa mga nanyayari in our
country, and giving pride to our own culture and beliefs.

 Post-Martial Law- This is the time where Edsa Revolution I took place na nag inspire at nagbukas
ng kaisipan ng maraming Pilipino.
