For Research

1) Which Filipino values pose obstacles to your value formation? How do they block your
value formation?
Answer: I have three which pose obstacles to my value formation such as “utang na
loob. Pakikisama and closeness of the family these three values have both positive and
negative effects towards our values. First, the “utang na loob it’s nice to give value of
the efforts of others for you but sometimes these utang na loob can make a cause for
corruption. For an instance, a student ask a favor of politician and the politician
granteed the favor the student then the student became successful. Let’s make it a
reality in which a politician used to help with expectation those who are in need will
help him in the future. Second the pakikisama it nice to have a good relationship to
everybody but sometimes these pakikisama tended the cause of violating rules and
regulations. And lastly sometimes due to the closeness of the family member the
standards of certain things are being left behind let say some body is applying for a
job one of his relatives happens to be the biggest boss in the company even he is not
qualified he will still be acquired because “kamag yon ni boss or he has a backer”. As a
future teacher I would like to change these values so that the so could corruption will be
discourage and excellence, competence and efficiency will be executed by globally
competitive Filipino citizen.
2) It is observed that beginning teachers somewhat lack emotional stability. What are
some of its causes? What should you do to counteract it?
Answer: Yes because people used to balance their lives and most of the time we need
to consider not only ourselves but the sake of others.
