Abstract
The focus of this study was a consideration of instructional activities as an appropriate alternative approach to values education in Primary and Secondary schools' social studies curriculum. This approach mainly advocated for the employment of the inquiry method, A strong belief was expressed in the value of this method as a more effective approach to the teaching of social studies. The concepts of value, inquiry method, and activity were examined, and attempts were made to establish their relevance to social studies education. It was against this background that choice of content for the activities developed in this study was made. A total of 16 different learning activities were developed with content specially prepared to draw the learners' attention to various values issues and conflicts. The 16 activities were grouped into sets of four units, each of which addresses itself to one of the four broad objectives which this proposed Teachers' Guide is meant to achieve.
