Students in the postmodern era
VALUES
The importance of intuition: intuition gains in importance, because rational thought has lost its authority as a means for dealing with ideas. Modernists tend to suppress intuition and feelings, according to postmodernists, even though they are just as legitimate and perhaps even more important than rational, conceptual (or "linear") thought
The importance of emotions: Affirmation of emotions follows along with the importance they place on self-esteem. They believe that any time children's emotions are challenged (even hate or selfish jealousy) the child is being disabled by having the teacher's reality imposed on her
Striving for diversity-- guarding, unchanged, the existing values, tastes and way of life of each subculture in our society.
The importance of creativity: Creativity is clearly allied to the postmodern emphases on the construction of knowledge and diversity. Stimulating and affirming creativity in students is important in constructing knowledge and values, particularly, if diverse viewpoints are to be encouraged
Equality--In postmodern ideology, equality means equal in terms of power relationships
