VALUE EDUCATION IN PRESENT SCENARIO

Abstract

Values are virtues and ideals on which actions and beliefs are based. They are guiding principles that shape our outlook, attitudes, and conduct. Values are described as the socially defined desires and goals that are internalized through the process of conditioning, learning & socialization. Epistemological crisis and identity crisis are the two main crises of value which create the major problems like suicide, murder, robbery, insurgency, caste and class conflict, etc. Scientific discoveries have given rise to materialistic accomplishments, but the problems of inequality, conflicts, poverty, apathy, and anxiety are on the rise. The function of education should be to enable individuals, to operate at their fullest potential. They must be equipped with the sense of opportunity to use their wits, skills, and passions to the fullest. Education provides the means for strengthening and enabling our native mental powers. The most important task is not to give education to the children, but enable them to apply the knowledge. It is also important to educate them to end up with confrontations in cultures, ideas and principles of various social groups that may cause dissolutions
