Ultimately all decisions, choices, responses, ... are value judgements. These judgements are about the quality (of life) and in most instances the life
under consideration is our own.
Most great teachers have pointed out the close association between the
quality of our own lives and the extent to which we contribute to the quality
of the lives of others.
As teachers it is our role to our students add quality to their lives through
their learning.
We are not always conscious of the basis of each choice or response that
we, or others, make. Glasser's Control Theory provides an explanation that
challenges Pavlov's stimulus-response theory.
We judge the quality (of things, experiences, our life...) by how well
they match the contents of our own 'personal quality world'.
Learning that contributes to our confidence that
we can achieve our personal 'quality world' will be experienced as 'delightful'.
