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.
