This new Sourcebook provides information on how to teach values for learning and working together in a globalized world. It is designed for educators and trainers of technical and vocational education and training (TVET). Its emphasis is on the integrated development of the whole person within the context of lifelong learning and TVET, in preparation for life and the world of work. The body of the book comprises 35 modules following the steps of a holistic teaching /learning cycle in each of the core and related values which can be integrated within a TVET education and training context to empower technical and vocational educators to adapt the process to their own training packages, units, lessons and resource materials. Chapter Two, "An Approach to Teaching and Learning Values," offers a way for the integration of values into the TVET curriculum. In this manner, the practical application of values becomes a living reality. The valuing process is an integral part of the holistic and integrated approach to vocational education and training. For each of the 35 modules in the Sourcebook there are lesson plans for educators, students and trainers to use. The modules relate to each of the core and related values for "Learning to Do." These have been contributed by educators from throughout the Asia Pacific region. The learning activities described in the modules follow the valuing process which may be adapted to the different learning styles and needs. They also provide learning experiences that will help the learners internalize the core values and translate them into action. Appendices present: (1) Universal Declaration of Human Rights; and (2) Bonn Declaration. A list of suggested further reading is also included. (Contains 27 footnotes.) [This Sourcebook was developed by UNESCO-APNIEVE (Asia-Pacific Network for International Education and Values Education) in partnership with the UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training.]
