An Investigation into Teacher Trainees’ Attitude towards Personal Values

Abstract

Teaching is the foundation of all professions, with educators playing a crucial role in shaping young minds and instilling values that go beyond academic knowledge. Central to teaching are four fundamental values—dignity, truthfulness, fairness and responsibility. These core values greatly influence teachers’ aspirations and behaviour. For aspiring educators, it is crucial to understand how teacher trainees perceive these personal values. This study seeks to explore these attitudes among teacher trainees.
