Heroism refers to outstanding acts that display courage. It is possible only in
rare circumstances and it requires a high level of moral character or
competence. Countless acts of heroism went unnoticed or unrecorded. In most
cases, local history is taken for granted. This study was conducted to determine
the influence of Filipino heroism on the value concepts of Grade 10 high
school students in Ozamiz City National High School. Descriptive research
design was used in this study. One-hundred respondents coming from four
different curricula in the said school were included in this study. Modified
questionnaire was used to obtain the data. The findings revealed that Filipino
heroism has high influence on Grade 10 high school students’ concept on
nationalism while the acts of heroism exemplified by Filipino heroes have
moderate influence on students’ value concepts of discipline, obedience,
determination, and bravery. The perceptions of students on the influence of
Filipino heroism on value concepts do not significantly vary when they are
grouped by profile. This study may provide insights to academic institutions
in promoting value concept of Filipino heroism.
