PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES OF EDUKASYON SA PAGPAPAKATAO/ VALUES EDUCATION/ GOOD MANNERS AND RIGHT CONDUCT

The Learning Area Standard

 The teaching of EsP has cognitive, behavioral (psychomotor) and affective dimensions. It begins with the
student’s understanding of the concept of responsibility to himself/herself, his/her family,
fellowmen, country, world and God (pag unawa sa mga konsepto sa kanyang pananagutan) which lead to
decision-making and responsible action (nakakapagpasaya at nakakakilos ng mapanagutan).
 Effective EsP touches the minds the hearts and the hands of the students not just their minds. Effective
EsP makes the student realize that responsibility has a horizontal and vertical dimension. He/she has to
reach out to his/her fellowmen.

Guiding Principles in the Teaching of Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (EsP)

1. Values are both taught and caught. The EsP teacher must teach the cognitive aspect of virtue intentionally and must live to.
2. Values cannot be separated from understanding although values and attitudes relate to the affective dimension.
3. At young age, a child may not yet be capable of understanding his/her true personhood but can be taught to lead a virtuous life that early for
him to develop good character. The book of Proverbs states, “Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old he will not depart
from it.” (Proverbs 22:6)
4. Values education is about developing virtues, good habits, and dispositions which had students to responsible and mature adulthood.

Effective value education must promote the development of virtue. Virtues are developed through learning and through practice. As
Aristotle taught, a person can improve his or her character by practicing self-discipline, while a good can be corrupted by repeated self-
indulgence.

The virtuous person is the ethical person. Margaret Thatcher said:

“Watch your thoughts for they become words. Watch your words for they become actions. Watch your actions for they become habits.
Watch your habits for they become character. Watch your character for it becomes your destiny.”
 5. Values Education is concerned with relationships, personhood is rooted in relationships. We develop our
personhood in relationship with others. One’s development is inseparably related to others. No one attains
his/her personhood without others
6. An effective values education takes place in an atmosphere of respect, tolerance and genuine
understanding. The EsP teacher shares and offers his/her value system with the students or students also
share their value systems in class without imposing them on others.

Some might argue that when you kno w better, you do better. This may not apply to the individual that is not quite sure about good manners
and conduct. An excellent starting point is understanding how to show gratitude and appreciation, as well as taking into consideration the opinions
and views of others.
Good manners convey respect to those you interact with, and also commands respect from those you interact with. Right conduct is living in a
moral and ethical way in the absolute sense rather than by the standards of any particular time or society.
