TOWARDS A HOLISTIC FUTURE: A CONCEPTUAL BLUEPRINT FOR VALUE-ORIENTED LIFE SKILLS EDUCATION

Abstract

This conceptual paper addressed a critical gap in today's life skills education, which is often disconnected, overly practical, and silent on values. To meet complex modern problems, researcher tried to critically scrutinize the new approaches Value-Oriented Life Skills Education (VOLSE). Researcher present a new three-part plan, built on basic human values, that changes standard life skills into value-based abilities like ethical thinking and the courage to do what's right. This connection is brought to life through teaching methods that stress real experience and personal reflection. The model offers a clear structure for designing lessons, training teachers, and evaluating students, stating that building skill must be permanently joined to building character. This is essential for the complete development of a person and for moving towards a kinder and more ethical world.
