Abstract: (495 Views) |
To explore the experiences of teachers and principals with the concept of social responsibility, 18 of them were carefully selected and interviewed. The analysis of the responses yielded 6 main themes and 33 extensions thereof which included constructive interaction with students’ environment, constructive interaction with colleagues, maintenance of appearance and behavior, lack of awareness and indifference within the school community, acting within the confounds of rules and regulation, and getting involved in students’ personal issues. The results show that teachers while improving their own behavior, can serve as models for students’ development and actualization. Nevertheless, acting within the confounds of organizational regulations is not all that social responsibility is about, rather its true meaning is going beyond the line of duty. |
