Abstract
The purpose of the study is to assess the implementation of values education in K-12 schools based on teachers’ views.
Developed by the authors, a Questionnaire on Values Education Implementation with 33 items on a five-point Likert-type
scale was used to collect data from teachers, which was grouped into four components; aims, content, learning-instruction
process and evaluation process. As for ‘aim’, teachers believed that the aims of values education clear and understandable
and the aims are concurrent with the aims of other course curricula. As for content, most of the teachers indicated that the
values selected for the infusion were in line with our culture. As for learning process, teachers reported that the activities in
related to values were successive to one another, teachers were seen to be role models for achieving the aims values
education, principals should make a claim to values education for effective implementation. As for evaluation, teachers
believed that evaluation criteria set for values education were clear.
Keywords: Values education, teacher views.
