INTRODUCTION AND ORIENTATION
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
Subject Description: This course makes
senior high school students aware of the developmental
stage that they are in, for them to better understand
themselves and the significant people around them as they
make important career decisions as adolescents. The
course consists of modules, each of which addresses a key
concern in personal development. Using the experiential
learning approach, each module invites students to
explore specific themes in their development. Personal
reflections, sharing and lectures help reveal and articulate
relevant concepts, theories, and tools in different areas in
psychology.

upon themselves, understand who
they are, accept what they discover
about themselves, and learn (or

WHAT IS SELF?
• Ideal self – what you aspire to be
• Actual self – actually see; born to have; built
on self-knowledge
• Self-knowledge – derived from social
interactions that provide insight into how
others react to you
• Self-image – is the actual self because we
have no way of truly knowing how others view
us
TAKE NOTE:
There is negotiation that exists
between the two selves which is
complex because there are numerous
exchanges between the ideal and
actual self.
What do you think will happen if
there is no alignment or
incongruence in your ideal and
actual self?

knowledge that will lead to higher
