Answer:
Explanation:
The prime concern of education is to evolve the good, the true and the divine in man so as to establish a moral life in the world. It should essentially make a man pious, perfect and truthful. The welfare of humanity lies neither in scientific or technological advancements nor in acquisition of material comforts. The main function of education is to enrich the character. What we need today more than anything else is moral leadership founded on courage, intellectual integrity and a sense of values.
Since education is a powerful instrument of social change and human progress, it is also a powerful tool to cultivate values in an individual. Therefore all the educational institutes have greater responsibility to impart learning and cultivation of values through education.
For inculcating values many educationists have suggested different ideas such as
• Provision of value based curriculum
• Designing special orientation program
for teachers
• Value based foundation courses
• Publication of literature based on values
• Necessity to develop code of conduct for teachers and students
• Inculcation of philosophical view towards life among teachers and students.
Further to cultivate values among the new generations we are to design a curriculum from out of our accumulated cultural heritage.
