HOLISTIC EDUCATION

 

     The COVID-19 pandemic has created problems for the world. There were many changes in people's lives and cause a lot of losses. In order to avoid the spread of the virus, almost all countries have had to shut down their economies and have taken stringent steps by enforcing the Enhanced Community Quarantine. The pandemic that is ravaging the globe is likely to cause educational opportunities to be most severely disrupted.

     The schooling of young learners has been impaired due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It interrupted the lives of students in numerous ways, not only in their grade level and course of study, but even to the degree they have reached in their programs. In the midst of this pandemic, the school administrators have manage to find a way to continue the learnings from students. But during the recession, no one was prepared to reorganize education on a wide scale and most governments had very little time to plan for a regime of the new normal learning. The institution must make the requisite adjustments to teach in various ways, all of which should offer the highest priority in reassuring students and parents. In order to get a better education, there are ways and preparations. School administrators should make sure that the appropriate student activity sheet is taken home by students. Collectively, systems for teachers to stay in contact for mutual help and simple feedback on learning modalities to students. Most of the students hope for is to be provocative and to make teachers and educational leaders recognize the severity of the educational risks posed by the pandemic at various levels of government, in the public or private sector, and to take responsibility for leading a process that is as effective and equitable as possible in addressing this adaptive challenge.

     The disruption caused by the pandemic would certainly be a phase of exploration for some children, of greater autonomy for their own learning, of more self-direction to experience fruitful collaborations with their teachers, guiding them through online education and with their parents.
