Mainstreaming Whole-Person Approach in SPUP’s Transformative Education
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 07
Abstract
The whole-person approach in transformative education sets a paradigm in integrating facets of human existence in the teaching-learning process. It advances personal growth, consciousness, and societal change through a holistic learning experience. This research paper delves into ascertaining the whole-person approach along the transformative education of St. Paul University Philippines (SPUP). It explores the practices, relates the experiences, and describes the opportunities espoused by the University in fostering transformative learning outcomes. Using the qualitative research design, particularly focus group discussion, the study brings to light various perspectives that illustrate SPUP’s whole-person approach relevant to its mission towards transformative learning. The findings from this study highlight SPUP’s endeavours in cultivating a positive convergence of the dimensions of human life, namely: physical, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing; social engagement; intellectual, moral and ethical, career development; cultural competence; environmental sustainability; and personal agency and resilience, in the University’s educational process to advance transformative learning.
