1 Highlight the differences between Human Values and Skills.
Values and skills go hand in hand. Both values and skills are required. There is an essential
complementarity between the two. The priority is values, then skills; i.e. first understanding ‘what to
Ans
do’ and then developing the skills for ‘how to do’. And of course, checking if this results into a
fulfilling life!
2 Outline the content of Value Education
The value of an entity is its participation in the larger order of which it is a part. The context is
always the larger order. Value has to do with the participation of a unit in the larger order. E.g. a
Ans
piece of chalk is a unit. The classroom is the larger order for this unit. The value of chalk is that it can
be used to write on the blackboard for the desired functioning of the classroom.
3 List any three implications of Value Education.
Correct Identification of Our Goals
Ans Development of a Holistic Perspective
Clarity of Programme to Live with Holistic Perspective
4 What is Self exploration?
Human Values can be understood by an appropriate process of self- discovery, because they are
potentially there in each and every human being. There is already a natural acceptance for values in a
Ans
human being. It is only that we have to discover them or become aware of them. Thus, the process for
Value Education has to be that of self-exploration, and not of giving sermons or telling dos & don’ts.
5 List out the two main parts of content of self exploration.

6 List out the characteristics of Natural Acceptance.
• It does not change with time
• It does not change with place
• It does not change with the individual
Ans
• It is uncorrupted by likes and dislikes or assumptions or beliefs
• It is innate, a part and parcel of our being; we don’t need to create it
• It is definite
7 Distinguishing between Acceptance and Natural Acceptance.
Natural acceptance has to do with something fundamental, something related to our purpose,
something related to our basic desires.
On the other hand, we have an acceptance for our likes and dislikes, assumptions, pre-conditionings,
Ans
beliefs, world-view, perspective, etc. but these may or may not be naturally acceptable to us.
Of course, all acceptances are not wrong. Passing them through our natural acceptance will validate
them and contribute to our self-confidence.
