Values Clarifi cation Teaching Method in Environmental Values Education

Abstract

The Values Clarification Approach to Teaching focuses on values education, helping people reduce value confusion and promoting the formation of unifi ed values through the process of evaluation. The value clarifi cation pedagogy believes that teachers cannot teach values directly to students, but can only help students form a value system that is appropriate for them through methods such as analysis and evaluation. Environmental values education, on the other hand, uses value analysis and value clarification to analyze and clarify one’s own values and value judgment patterns so that learners can develop the ability to think critically and make decisions to eff ectively solve environmental problems in society.
