Book Description
In this study of the main conceptual and normative issues to which the education of the adult gives rise, the author demonstrates that these issues can be understood and resolved only by coming to grips with some of the central and most contentious questions in epistemology, philosophy of mind, ethics, and social philosophy. A salient feature of the book is its searching examination of the different types of value judgement by which all educational discourse is permeated. The analysis of the nature and justification of educational judgements forms the basis of an overall philosophy of adult education which should provide a much needed axiological framework for the guidance of practitioners in this growing area of educational concern.

Values Education on Human Sexuality
Author: Robert Z. Cortes
Publisher: Global Creative Publishing House
ISBN: 9719650095
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
SPECIAL QUESTIONS (FOR GRADE 11, THE AGE OF DEEPENING) The book series is all about education in human sexuality, based on the nourishment and cultivation of the natural gift of a person’s character. The series is based on the premise that SEXUALITY EDUCATION is, basically, CHARACTER EDUCATION, which in turn is founded on human dignity and encompasses formation in moral standards and human conduct; hence, covering the key elements of “life and love, and everything in between”. Comprising an introductory volume for parents and teachers; a volume for classroom use of teachers; a volume for parents; and eight volumes for Grades 5 to 12, respectively, this current volume is specifically addressed to Grade 6 pupils, about 17 to 18 year olds in their late adolescence. It talks about SPECIAL QUESTIONS: on issues concerning life; sex; marriage; and human identity. Since men and women have been gifted with intellect and will, one becomes highly capable of using well or abusing these powers for the good or damage of self and fellowmen. It is thus extremely important that students at this age have a deep appreciation of the issues confronting the modern world, especially in the realm of sexuality and the channels of its development. The book series is characterized by sound, perennial concepts and by teaching and learning tools geared towards the age group being addressed.
