Educational system is always seen as a paradigm for attaining economic soundness and organizational effectiveness. That’s why; many developing nations put a great emphasis on its educational process as a step towards their prospective development (Alzaroo & Hunt, 2003). Egypt is one of the developing countries that have tried to use education as a mechanism for accelerating its potential to reach the level of developed country (Mahrous & kortam, 2012).However, Egypt is currently facing a serious problem that affects the whole educational process; the majority of its teachers are leaving governmental schools in search for better work opportunities in the private sector and gulf countries.

On one hand, spirituality may be defined as a consistent trial to find an ultimate being (Heschel, 1955). Roof (2015) defines it as “the personal relationship or experience with god or the divine that informs an individual’s existence and shapes their meaning, purpose, and mission in daily life. It does not need to encompass religion nor does it by nature exclude religion”. On the other hand, Ashmos and Duchon (2000) define workplace spirituality as “the recognition that employees have an inner life that nourishes and is nourished by meaningful work that takes place in the context of community”. It could be also defined as” a framework of organizational values evidenced in the culture that promote employees’ experience of transcendence through the work process, facilitating their sense of being connected to others in a way that provides feelings of completeness and joy “(Jurkiewicz & Giacalone, …show more content…
According to the study of (Meyer & Allen, 1991) organizational commitment encompasses three approaches: affective, normative and continuance. Allen and Meyer(2000) mention that affective refers to the emotional attachment to the organization, while normative commitment describes the psychological contract of values and obligations towards an organization ,whereas continuance commitment points out the costs associated with leaving the organization.
Sreejesh and Tavleen (2011) state that “affective commitment develops when the employees become involved in and/or derive their identity from an association with the organization. Normative commitment develops when employees internalize the organizational norms through socialization; receive benefits that induce them to feel the need to reciprocate and/or to accept the terms of a psychological contract. Continuance commitment develops when the employee perceive that there are no alternatives other than to remain in the current
An important theme in the novel Fifth Business by Robertson Davies is materialism vs spiritualism. As defined by Dictionary.com, “Materialism the preoccupation with or emphasis on material objects, comforts, and considerations, with a disinterest in or rejection of spiritual, intellectual, or cultural values” (“The Definition of Materialism”1). Spiritualism can also be defined by Dictionary.com as, “The belief or doctrine that the spirits of the dead, surviving after themortal life, can and do communicate with the living, especially througha person (a medium) particularly susceptible to their influence” (“The Definition of Spiritualism”2). This theme is portraying the two different ways that Dunny and Boy have chosen to deal with the guilt
The Spiritual model is getting a sense of how people’s spiritual and religious beliefs, values, and practices might be related to their presenting problem and can also provide direction to clients in constructing solutions for their lives. Spirituality is individual, subjective and can be expressed in different ways. Some people choose to express their spirituality through religion or religious practice, while others may not. Spirituality can also be described as the search for answers to life’s big questions, why is this happening to me?

I make a very good team member to work with and always try to do the best of my abilities in any group I am a part of. Commitment to me is defined as being one hundred percent devoted. Commitment involves being punctual, determined, and being a leader. I would be committed to the Spanish Honor Society by being responsible, organized, and having respect for others.
To address this situation, I propose that teachers should get paid the amount of $70,000 per year. I believe that paying teachers this amount will provide students with a better education. Although this solution doesn’t guarantee that students will get the best education possible, it still provides students with the opportunity to have a better education and better teachers. Teachers will also benefit from this pay increase as they will have a better income. This solution will effectively improve both the teachers' livelihood and students'
In many countries living in extremely poor conditions, not only is basic health an issue but also the lack of education. Although it is a necessity, “more than 72 million children of primary education age are not in school and 759 million adults are illiterate” (Rights to Education 1). The deprivation of education should be taken serious if a change is wanted. People need to become aware of how important education is and the benefit that it has.
“Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life” (Buddha). Throughout different time periods religion has impacted the society in which people live. Religion has and continues to dictate the rules citizens have to follow in all areas, especially social, educational, and political. Religion influences morals, values, and people’s identities. Many people turn to religion for not just spiritual answers, but for guidance and help in everyday life.
Ferguson, D. (2010). Exploring the spirituality of the world religions. London: Continuum. The book reveals the spirituality of world religions with the description of values and practices, which give a deep understanding of the cultural context of every nationality.
Education is interconnected with every single strand of the economy, laws, jobs, research… I believe that education is not only one of the most important factors in a development of a country but instead, it has a greater significance than other factors. First and Foremost, Education is the foundation of our society. It gives us the power of knowledge and the power of assisting others. Nelson Mandela once said: “Education is the most powerful weapons which you can use to change the world – The Former
Religious discrimination in workplace entails an employer treating a person specifically a candidate or staff unfairly because of his or her religious beliefs. The Title VII and law protects people who have wholeheartedly held religious, ethical or moral beliefs (Eeoc.gov.). Religious discrimination can also mean treating someone differently because that person is affiliated with an individual of a distinct religion. Religious discrimination in employment, has not vanished.
2. Religion 2.1. Definition of Religion Religion is a set of beliefs, morals, and values that people practice to guide their lives in a spiritual manner. Religion entails traditions, customs and cultures that influences people to live a life of morality and can be shared among communities and societies. It is a linkage to our inner beings and through the belief of God to dedicate our lives in helping others and in the pursuit of self happiness.
More and more countries are emerging on the economic as well as the educational level. As Nelson MANDELA said “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”. Many countries have understood that fact. Mostly African countries start realizing that their economy depend on young, educated young. IN SENEGAL, education began one of the most domain to invest in.
The term “spiritual formation” can mean diverse things to different people. For me as a Christian, spiritual formation is the process by which God forms a person into His image. The goal of formation, as expressed by Ashbrook (2009), is “a Love Relationship with God…to live fully and freely in His love, and to respond by loving Him as well” (p. 26). Many experiences, both positive and negative, shape an individual’s relationship with God. The journey of formation will be distinctive, and often enigmatic except in hindsight, for each individual.
The human development index proves that countries where children with few years of education are overall less developed. South Korea’s recent transformations shows how important a strong education system truly is. Thirty years ago it was a low income country with 78% of it’s population illiterate because only 40% of children were able to attend secondary school. After the country decided to invest money in their education system, all children had to opportunity to attend secondary school, thus their economy skyrocketed.
