Abstract

Education is the tool to inculcate social values among students. Ethical development provides skills required for living in harmony with oneself and with others. The moral values give direction, determination, contentment, peace and bring joy to life. So, it becomes necessary that these should be inculcated among children from the very beginning. These can be easily inculcated through teaching- learning process of school subjects. In this study, Researchers have tried to find out how far the chemistry curriculum at higher secondary stage may help in imparting values among students. It has been revealed that the present chemistry syllabus has good potential of inculcating the social and moral values among students. The students and teachers have quoted values that can be inculcated during teaching-learning process through various topics of chemistry at higher secondary stage.
