Tradițional și modern în educația pentru valori culturale românești
Tradition and modernism with education for the Romanian cultural values

Summary/Abstract: Education on values is a pedagogic undertaking that aims at developing certain capabilities at an early age, to enable the achievement of values. To educate at an early age does not mean to offer children information when very young, but to gradually train them as soon as they are capable of understanding. Education on values involves setting up targets – the values to be assimilated – and focusing the educational efforts towards the achievement thereof. Traditionally, the types of values society wishes to inoculate the younger generation with have been divided into: material values and spiritual ones, on the one hand, and economic and cultural values and moral and aesthetic values. It is not important how they are classified theoretically, but how they are achieved implicitly. This is so much more difficult that education is facing a crucial moment in our country (and not only here). On the one hand, it is training a generation in a certain educational context, while on the other hand it has to “fight” against the already shaped beliefs of a generation whose education had a different ideal. Considering the traditional approaches on education on cultural values, playing seems to be the most frequent one.
