Value Education


Core Value in Teachers
Introduction-
Value is a word which designates the things. In our social life we do many types of activities, good or bad, value enhances these qualities. A person who is physically, mentally or socially well is known as healthy person. The value helps us to be a healthy person in a society.
For the development of society personality of a child is most important. It is a fundamental infrastructure. Values are also a basic part to develop a character, as a saying “if we built a house every brick count, to build a character every thoughts count”. The developing child learns faster as our expectation. The 90% development of a mind took place in mother’s womb, the mother do and the child learns. If we enhance the quality of child we need to improvise the surrounding of a child. The child learns many things from father, mother, society but maximum from his teacher, so a teacher should have good core values which can be portrait into student’s life. If we talk about a teacher we expect that he should be 100% perfect in mathematics or in science or in which he belongs, but what about values in teachers, Is it 100%?, No. Actually we don’t expect this in them but we need to more conscious about the value education in teacher.
Value based education helps human being to conduct themselves in the more desirable directions, and to shape their life pattern by firming up their beliefs and by integrating facts, ideas, attitude and actions. This will also help them to clarify their aims in life as well as the process to achieve them.

Core value
 The inner most part is considered to be a core. The values are supposed to be in the core of teachers.
A teacher should implement the following points given about values so that students can easily accommodate the steps of their teacher –



Today it’s very important to apply the values to create a base of behavior. Everybody is acquainted of truth, celibacy, love, kindness, honesty, integrity, nonviolence, self-respect, contribution. But very few of all are implementing these in their life.

Child environment –
 The child’s environment is his family. The values which he can adopt from the environment are projected by his family member, father, mother, grandparents or by a teacher. Now days there is a trend of nuclear family so the child could not achieve the more values from their grandparents and parents. As they are very much busy in their basic needs. It’s a big responsibility of a school to provide a value based education where the role models are the teachers. Do the teachers have these values? Most probably not.
                                                                                                 
Handling Core Values –
 Handling Core Value is not an easy task. Teacher should learn values and first they have to adopt good values in themselves and if they can do so they will be the best teacher. A teacher should have integrity in themselves. They need not to have any bad values like chewing tobacco, smoking, using slangs in classrooms, etc. because the children are the good follower of their teacher. Let the child might say that you are his teacher.

Conclusion –
Every religion, legends and culture have only one thing common that is “Value”. Swami Vivekanand is well known by his values, Gandhi Ji said “Ahinsa parmodharma”, Ravindra Nath Tagore said “Satyamev Jayate”. Only the core values given by the teacher can make students a good citizen. First be a good and knowledgeable teacher.
