Whole person education means raising the consciousness of both teachers and students by enabling them to learn from each other. It is an approach that focuses on building character and integrity rather than just transmitting knowledge or teaching skills.

There are many things to be revised and enhanced if I want to integrate Whole Person Education to all subjects I teach... When I want to bring a powerful message and make a significant impact to my fellows and environment, I have to grasp and experience what I want to share before I share it to others.

Whole Person Education has changed the way I prepare my syllabus or teaching module. I design a lecture strategically so students will be able to understand the knowledge better. Adding service learning as one topic has also changed the students; their involvement in learning in community as well as government projects has increased their passions and understanding.

Whole person education is not about pedagogy, structures or activities to cater to the students’ holistic needs or developmental domains. It is an environment that the institution must create to develop the students internally.

Whole Person Education is an absolute necessity as it will enable educators to help their students answer why they are learning certain learning materials. Faculty and staff must get to know their students better and help them understand the meaning or purpose of their lives.

We need to develop our learners in three important areas: Head (cognitive domain), Heart (affective domain), and Hand (psychomotor domain). We are responsible for teaching our students to think rather than to merely memorize.

Institutionalizing Whole Person Education through an Integrated Formation Program includes ensuring the competence or expertise in the major curricula, the formation of character through discipline-based and service-learning initiatives, and a pedagogical system that is rooted in the institution’s identity and mission.

Student-centered and reflective pedagogy closely relate to cura personalis (personal care/cure). One aspect of Whole Person Education is development of self in the presence of others.

Sometimes when designing the syllabi, lesson plans and assignments, we forget to help students relate what they have learned to their life and the real-world experience. Whole Person Education encourages them to think how they can apply what they have learned to their life as citizens to serve the society better.

The purpose of higher education is to educate students to apply what they have learned to create a better future. Whole Person Education is not only a goal, and it should be integrated in our mindsets and life.

The purpose of higher education is to create empathic, engaged and reflexive human beings. To achieve this, teachers need to model these qualities in everything they do—to be engaged, empathic and reflexive teachers and researchers.

It is not uncommon to focus on the intellectual aspect of Whole Person Education, by tending to bombard students with reading materials and quizzes. But we need to engage students not only intellectually, but also emotionally and socially. Reflections help show spiritual and social growth.

All students come to our classes as whole persons. We need to care for them wholly, not just in their academic performance but to educate them to achieve their highest potential in academic, personal, and spiritual development.

Higher education is to prepare students to be good world citizens who are able to solve problems in the real world. This means teaching students not just intellectually, but also relating the course materials to their daily life.

Education is not only transferring knowledge to the students, but transforming their knowledge, skills, value, and attitudes. Learning is a process of personal transformation which is purposed, planned, and prepared by the students and the teacher.
