Learning Activity 4.4<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our values are shaped by how we see ourselves and the world around us \u2013 our worldview. We all have a worldview, as inarticulate as we might express it (Wolters, 2005, loc. 63). Our worldview has to do with our convictions (Wolters, 2005, loc. 51). As a result, each person values are an extension of who they are and what they believe to be true. This is also why it is very difficult for many to dialogue about and discuss value differences. How do I sit and work side by side with someone that has a different worldview and consequently different values?<\/p>\n

Below are my values (in bold) and four coworkers\u2019 values (in parentheses).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n

I would say that by looking at the results, one could say that there are more commonalities than differences between us all. We seem to all agree that students\u2019 individual development and competing with others are of low importance for us all.<\/p>\n

We might not all be quite as sure of how important it is for the school to prepare students for their career. At Gutenberg, we want our school to help students acquire skills which will help them find a job. Although there are other skills that have a higher priority, it is important for the school to be relevant and prepare students for their future jobs. The school is in the process of building three shops for professional training \u2013 mechanical, air-conditioning, and cooking.<\/p>\n

There are two values that were quite in opposite rankings, developing intellectual potential and developing students\u2019 emotional stability. For two people these were most important and for others, they were ranked as next to least important. For some, the school is there to prepare students academically while for others is has a more social and cooperative role.<\/p>\n

Yet, overall, I appreciate the commonalities I see in the results and knowing that at least we know what we do not want for our school.<\/p>\n
