The Whole Child Approach
This principle focuses on addressing the emotional, social, ethical, and academic needs of students as an interconnected system, rather than in isolation. Traditional methods often prioritize academic achievement above other aspects of development.
Connection to Nature and the Universe
This aspect involves nurturing a sense of belonging to the wider environment and universe, fostering respect and care for nature, which is often not a focus in standard education practices, more concerned with human-centered knowledge.
Experiential Learning
Holistic education emphasizes learning through experience, reflection, and application to promote deeper understanding, compared to the traditional rote memorization or passive reception of facts.
Multiple Intelligences
Holistic education recognizes and nurtures various types of intelligences, such as musical, logical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal, versus traditional methods that usually prioritize linguistic and logical-mathematical intelligences.
Community and Collaborative Learning
This principle emphasizes the importance of learning within a community and through collaboration, teaching students to work together and learn from each other. Traditional education tends to focus on individual achievement and competition.
