HOLISTIC VS PARTIAL POINT OF VIEW

The Heuristic theory of holistic perspective is about seeing and understanding not only
what is out there in the material world. We are also be aware in what is happening
inside ourselves and others - in our minds and bodies and how this relates to all around
us.

> complete/well-rounded/all/entire perspective or understanding

partial perspective suggests that we only understand one

component part of the whole.

HOLISTIC POINT OF VIEW PARTIAL POINT OF VIEW

Looks at all aspects of the given
problem or situation.
→ All aspects are given importance
when making conclusions.
→ All aspects are tied in together to
form a general overview of the
problem or situation.
Example:
A teacher listened first to both stories of
her two arguing students before making
any conclusion about the issue.
→ Looks only at a limited number of
aspects of the given problem or
situation.
→ Conclusions are made based on
considering some, but not all, sides of
the problem or situation.
Example:
A teacher scolded Student A after
Student
B accused him of stealing her pencil.
However, the teacher only listened to the
story of student B, and not Student A
before deciding to scold the student.

> Holism comes from the Greek word "holos" which literally means all, entire, totality.
> A partial point of view is a perspective that looks at reality based on a single or
partial component of a system

Student 1 :I sincerely hope that DepEd reinstates face-to-face education. At school, I'd
want to meet up with my classmates and teachers. I'd like to join them for lunch. I'd like
to create new and exciting memories with them.

Student 2 I hope so, too, but because to the epidemic, DepEd is unable to begin face-
to-face sessions. Yes, there are some rules or processes to follow in order to avoid
becoming infected, but you never know when one of us may become unwell.
