Values Education Philosophy
The Values Education Philosophy of a person is endowed with spiritual, physical, moral, social, economic, and special political powers. These potentials are innate in the human being. Hence, Values Education helps the person develop or enhance these potentials and use them for self actualization and for the common good. The person’s fullness actualized in his/her being with others and in the pursuit of something beyond himself/herself in the common good.
Values Development
On this basis, values development may be two pronged: the development of the self in relation to oneself (intrarrelations and the development of the self in relations to others (interrelations). These are two separate dimensions, yet they are a whole aligned in the development of the human being.
Intrarelations and Interrelations
Development of both the intrarelations and interrelations directed toward the pursuit of the common good is God inspired. Thus, processes for all kinds of development, including values development, should be directive and in conformity with what is good and with the will of God.
