CONTENT OF THE LESSON

MEANING OF VALUE

Value can be defined as the degree of quality or worth of a thing. Value can also be defined as the laid down rules or standards that guide an individual's interactions with people. Value influences our character and attitude towards other people. Value is the acceptable way of life by a group in a particular society.

Value also includes people’s beliefs, language, arts and ways of life. Culture is the total way of life of the people and this culture cannot be separated from the people. Since the culture of the people cannot be separated from the people, it is then not possible to remove the value, beliefs and customs of a group of people from their culture.

Types of value

  1. Discipline: it is the ability of an individual to control his or her own behaviours
  2. Honesty: It is the ability to be truthful and straightforward at all times.
  3. Selflessness: It is the ability to show more interest in the welfare of other people
  4. Courage: This is the ability to face difficulty, danger or pain without fear.
  5. Integrity: It is the ability to stand and stick to sound morals and principles at all times.
  6. Sincerity: it is the ability to be open-minded and to have a clear mind towards an issue
  7. Co-operation: Ability to work with other people to achieve a common goal.
  8. Fairness: It is the ability to be considerate and avoid cheating
