Holistic Vs Partial Point of View

Background Information for Learners

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.

People tend to apply an analytic perspective when looking at problems or situations.


For instance, doctors often focus on a specific set of symptoms to determine the cause of a
patient’s illness. Once a particular cause has been identified, the doctor then prescribes the
appropriate medicine and other treatments to address the illness. In the case of a person
who experiences a stomach ache, a doctor may prescribe the appropriate medicine that will
address the physical cause of the problem.

A holistic perspective however requires the doctor to look at the “big picture” and
view the patient’s illness as an aspect of his or her lifestyle and personal circumstances.
When using this perspective, a doctor may be able to identify other underlying causes of the
illness. The doctor can interview the patient and get an idea of his or her habits and lifestyle
may lead to discovery that fatigue and stress may be the factors that cause the illness.
Knowing this the doctor can advise the patient to make changes in his or her habits to
reduce stress and eventually improve his or her well-being.

Holistic perspective suggests that we can only understand the parts when we view
them in relation to the whole while partial perspective suggests that we only understand one
component part of the whole.

A before deciding to scold the student.

Holism comes from the Greek word "holos" which literally means all, entire, totality.
Holism is a school of thought that maintains the interdependence of factors to another
agencies of causalities. Holistic perspective is a kind of system that aims to determine
and explain the whole or totality of a given system by examining the behaviors and
activities of certain component parts while in philosophy, a point of view is defined as a
way or a method how one sees or perceives the reality or a phenomenon.

A partial point of view is a perspective that looks at reality based on a single or partial
component of a system whereas the holistic perspective tries to broaden the
understanding of reality by taking considerations of other possible causal agents or factors
be it biological, theological or any other factors that may contribute in understanding a
certain phenomenon. Holism is widely used in research as one of the many research
methods. Often, holism is used in anthropology wherein an anthropologist can begin to see
interrelationship or correlation of different components of a culture.
For example, when one researcher conducts an inquiry on the reason why Filipinos
celebrate fiesta based on the religious aspect of it, the point of view is partial since it only
considered one causal factor and did not include other possible factors like sociological,
political and historical.

LEARNING ACTVITY SHEET

Value of Doing Philosophy

Background Information

Philosophy is generally defined as love of wisdom or the knowledge of things in general by


their ultimate causes, so for as reason attain to such knowledge. It is a comprehensive and
critical study and analysis of experience. Whether it is consciously, deliberately and
rationally adopted on conviction or consciously or unconsciously followed in life through
faith or persuasion, every man constructs for himself a fundamental philosophy as the basis
of life, a theory of the relation to the world and the individual, and this shapes his whole
attitude to life. Study and Learn
Doing Philosophy can be applied in day-to-day activities and life perspectives, because it
involves evaluative process. Doing philosophy allows a person to make better decisions and
act accordingly to situations with the help of various philosophical skills.
Philosophy as a body of knowledge provides methodologies and insights on how societal
questions, such as moral dilemmas of euthanasia or same-sex marriage, can be answered.
The process of doing philosophy should NOT be mistaken for the Filipino activity of
PAMIMILOSOPO or pedantry where a person displays useless knowledge or minute
observance of small details.
Four reasons why philosophy is as relevant as ever.
1. Philosophy is the foundation of critical thinking.
➢ It brings the important questions to the table and work towards an answer. It encourages
us to think critically about the world. It is the foundation of all knowledge and when
utilized properly can provide us with huge benefits.
2. Science cannot answer every question.
➢ Science helps us live longer, whereas philosophy helps us live better. It is striving
towards figuring out what is true and worthwhile, and what it means to live a meaningful
and worthwhile life.

2. Philosophy has meaning in the business world.


➢ It explains that anyone who wants to succeed in a challenging, leading position in
business, public administration, politics, or the wider society needs a crucial set of skills.
Examples: check the consistency and soundness of policy paper, decide which
problems are crucial and identify issues that are still misunderstood.
2. Ancient philosophers continue to influence humanity.
➢ Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle laid the foundations of Western culture, and
their ideas and insights still dictate essential features of our world from what we eat to
what we see on the internet. Confucius on the other hand had influenced China’s
modern government.

1. Noypi by “Hoy Pinoy ako! Buo We Filipinos are known to be resilient.
BAMBOO aking loob, May agimat Even in times of strong calamity and in

2. Sound of “No one dared disturbed In this time of pandemic, the world is
Silence by the sound of silence” completely in silence. Streets are empty,
SIMON & people are confined at home and traveling
GARFUNKEL becomes the last thing in our minds. We
listen to silent screams of our front liners
and to all the victims of COVID-19. In a
split of a second the world adapts to the
new normal and no one dared to question
it for this is what we need. We need to
shut our world from the busy lifestyle that
we used to have. We refrain from
complaining and instead comply, for us to
heal as one.

3. Vincent by “They would not listen; We are living in a permissive society


DON they’re not listening still. where everyone can post and share how
MCLEAN Perhaps they never will” they are feeling but it leads us also to a
point where insensitivity to others prevails
instead of kind words. People bash and
trolls threat one another. Endless harsh
comments are thrown in different social
media platforms. We failed to listen to one
another. We failed to empathize, and we
just want to be heard without realizing that
we too need to listen.

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

A Philosophical Reflection

Background Information
Have you realized of what you want in life? Have you ever found yourself
wondering about the things you experienced or where your life is headed? As we grow
older, our questions are influenced by our experiences and circumstances and we call
that philosophical reflection that we define it as the process by which a person
undergoes a reflective state or evaluates his or her experiences first before making any
related action. The use of philosophical reflection is important as it enables thought to
be investigated using a deeper, holistic perspective. In effect, actions are directed
towards greater sources of wisdom and truth.
A big part of living is spent pondering many questions, and our lives become
more meaningful because we search for answers to these innumerable questions. This
is the essence of philosophy-the search for answers to life’s questions. Human
Activities Emanated from Deliberate Reflection
1. Learning from your previous mistakes and not repeating them again.
2. Evaluating and knowing the best choice from a set of options.
3. Gaining a holistic point of view first before making any conclusion.
4. Gather more information before arriving into a final judgment.
5. Eliminate all negative choices before deciding something.

• I believe that each of us has responsibility in making our lives better by working hard
and exerting efforts however there are circumstances which are beyond human
control like if you apply for a job there will always be an applicant who is always a top
priority. Yes, we cannot help blaming the system of our government, but we must not
fail to realize that this should not stop us from striving hard to make our lives better.

Possible answer for Activity No. 4


• I choose family and friends because they are my support system and confidant.
• I prefer good books because it will give you positive outlook in life.
• I need cash to keep me well-balanced so that I will not worry about our needs.
Possible answer for Activity No. 5
• We tend to be less happy in this time of technology because our society has set
standards to everything, the way we post pictures, wear outfit of the day, food should
be pleasing and the like. We cannot deny the fact that not all of us can cope with
those standard and it makes us feel unsatisfied every time we say “sana all”.
• The pandemic we are facing is life threatening yet it has taught us one thing and that
is to value life more than anything else.
• I believe that guns both protect and kill people. The simple analogy for this is that
when a police officer uses his pistol to a criminal. The act committed is killing yet a
form of saving victims.

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Opinion from Truth

Background Information
Today, we encounter a lot of information from various sources such as the
media and our interactions with friends, family, and members of the community.
Most of them is helpful, but some may mislead or may even be utterly false. How
can we distinguish opinion from truth?
Most of the time there are statements presented to you in readings or perhaps
in speaking engagements. You are asked to listen that based on facts and opinions.
Reading materials or speeches tend to have interwoven statements as either fact or
opinion wherein your critical skill is called to sort which is true from those set of beliefs
or ideas.
However, there are philosophical grounds to which fact and opinion should be
critically analyzed. Take for example John Corvino’s Three Distinction of opinion and
truth:
1.Belief and Reality Distinction
Reality is unarguably seen and felt by the human senses. Whereas, belief is a
by-product or a manifestation of any reality.

For example: Your reality right now is your being a student enrolled in a certain
curriculum. There can be several beliefs system that can thrive out from that reality:
Finishing academic year with either outstanding grades or just passing remarks.
Graduating with honors or graduating simply as an ordinary graduate.

2. Subjective and Objective Distinction


Perspective is what makes fact as possibly an opinion or opinion as potentially a
fact. This can vary according to one’s experience and position making judgment as
either subjective or objective. What makes your viewpoint subjective is when you rely
so much on your perception as dictated by your mind. And when something appears to
you objectively that means there are reasons outside of the mind that make the thing
true.

Practice personal hygiene protocol at all times.


Note:

A. Descriptive and Normative Distinction (shuttlestock.com)


How any experience is labelled depends on their representations from the
world. There is such a thing we call Descriptive statements which simply
narrates what happens, while there are the Normative statements which
evaluate the events according to the perspective of people, a certain culture
and law.
For example, in a certain class the teacher observes cheating to be
rampant which is basically a wrong doing (Descriptive), but, with the group of
students doing the act they might reason out that the act is for their greater
good(Normative).

Fact Opinion
A fact is a statement that can be proven An opinion expresses someone’s

about something or someone
Statements that can be verified. Statements that express a writer’s

A fact generally refers to something that An opinion refers to a personal belief. It
is true and can be verified as such. relates to how someone feels about
something. Others may agree or
disagree with an opinion, but they
cannot prove or disprove it. This is
what defines it as opinion.
Facts speak for their own truth. Opinion may use descriptive language
to appeal to your emotions and sway
your thinking.
Questions to Identify Facts: Words to Identify Opinions:
1. Can the statement be proven or 1. Biased Words (bad, worse,
demonstrated to be true? worst, good, better, best, worthwhile,
2. Can the statement be observed worthless, etc.)

in the found essay about Global warming (please refer to references)

Global Warming is a term almost everyone is familiar with. But its


meaning is still not clear to most of us. So, Global warming refers to the
gradual rise in the overall temperature of the atmosphere of the Earth. There
are various activities taking place which have been increasing the
temperature gradually. Global warming is melting our ice glaciers rapidly. This
is extremely harmful to the earth as well as humans. It is quite challenging to
control global warming; however, it is not unmanageable. The first step in
solving any problem is identifying the cause of the problem. Therefore, we
need to first understand the causes of global warming that will help us
proceed further in solving it. In this essay on Global Warming, we will see the
causes and solutions of Global Warming.

INTRODUCTION TO THE
PHILOSOPHY OF HUMAN PERSON
Name of Learner: ____________________________Grade Level: _______
Section: ____________________________________Date: ____________

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Methods of Philosophy
Background Information for Learners
Philosophy brings the human person to a level of thinking and/or
expression that develops wisdom and further learning. When you failed, for the
first time, you then realized what made you fail; and so, the next time you are
faced with a similar situation, you already know better how to approach it in order
to succeed. And when you reach that stage of philosophy, you are building up on
wisdom. Wisdom is the application of knowledge. There are four different
methods of philosophizing namely, logic, existentialism, analytic tradition, and
phenomenology.

1. Logic in simple words, is the art and science of correct thinking.


“The study of truths based completely on the meanings of the terms they
contain.”
⚫ The foundation of a logical argument is its proposition, or statement.
⚫ The proposition is either accurate (true) or not accurate (false).
⚫ Premises are the propositions used to build the argument.
⚫ The argument is then built on premises.
⚫ Then an inference is made from the premises.
⚫ Finally, a conclusion is drawn.

1. Existentialism is a philosophical view that assert the individuality of


any human person making him free to make choices of what he is and what
he can become. This means that you students are unique and would most
likely have a future that is true to your own person and not what is being
dictated by your parent nor your friends. At what Jean-Paul Sartre says,
“Freedom is the identity of man.”
Existentialism teaches one enjoy freedom but with due responsibility on
what is wrong and is right. Through this method, you can discover more sets
of truth without any limitations. As a man who has freedom you must put to
mind that you are accountable of your choices and decision in life.

2. Analytic Philosophy states that, “assumption of truth only becomes true


after it shall have gone through validation, experimentation or any scientific
approach for that matter.
Note: Practice personal hygiene protocol at all times.
31
In school setting for example, there are questions teachers ask that may elicit
different responses, but there is only one definite correct answer and this answer is
usually supported by a concept or a theory which is a product of scientific process.
Analytic Philosophy teaches you that it’s not how you see things and how you
perceive them, but how they are processed through rigorous and valid methods.
Hence, exact truth is seen in the lens of due scientific process. In life, you must
remember that truth is accompanied with process.

3. Phenomenology brings varied perceptions over a thing to a common


end that certain things no matter how different the perspective of people
towards it due to their experiences would receive justification to its being.

For example, in this image you may look at it as half full, some
look at it as half empty. This thing may appear in different perspectives. In
applying phenomenology, one must go back to its original meaning or “thing-
init-self” (according to Encyclopedia) that is simply a glass of water.
Things may appear to you in different ways. Yet, what is important is to
see its essence. This phenomenological way brings you to the essence of
anything. Hence, also see the importance of the things that you encounter for
there is always essential meaning why things exist.
For you to make use of logic a tool in understanding complex proposition
presented in statements or texts, you may use two types of reasoning:
A. Deductive Reasoning
There are usually complex thoughts we encounter, and it takes a hard time to
understand what is expressed in it. But with the help of deductive reasoning
we can chunk the entire thought into smaller units to arrive at a simpler
presentation.
Examples
Premises: All Teachers are smart people. Some smart people are studious.
Conclusion: Some smart people are teachers.
Premises: All students are kind. Pedro is a student.
Conclusion: Pedro is kind.
B. Inductive Logic
Inductive reasoning - there are presentations of statements or ideas wherein
its specific details come first before generalizations are being laid. In this case,
use bottom up approach in trying to understand the concept. "bottom up,"
meaning that it takes specific information and makes a broad generalization
that is considered probable, allowing for the fact that the conclusion may not
be accurate.
Note: Practice personal hygiene protocol at all times.
32
Examples
Premises: Peru is a drunkard. Lucky is one of the brothers of Peru.
Conclusion: In this case, you could use inductive reasoning to offer an opinion
that it was probably Lucky, and his other brothers are also drunkard.
Explanation: The probability of your assumption may not necessarily be true
for lucky and his other brothers might have different priority in terms of
drinking liquor.
Premises: Going to public places increases high possibility to acquire COVID19.
Rose goes to the market every day.
Conclusion: Therefore, Rose is COVID-19 infected.
Explanation: The probability of your assumption may not necessarily be true for
Rose might follow the proper protocol.
Logic allows you to think accordingly about anything, making your reasoning correct,
and removing any possible bias that influence your judgement. Through this method of
philosophizing you will be critically capable of weighing what is probable and what is
true. When applied to life, this will allow good consequences and benefits.

Varied answers

Possible answer
Hunger is a prevalent situation in the Philippines at this present time.
This is the effect of lockdowns, wherein works have become limited; so,
resources as well, became scarce to most families. As a result, the
socioeconomic development of the country eventually slowed down.
However, if I were to look at our situation, in a philosophical perspective,
there are still ways and means by which we could ease hunger among our
communities; thus, there are valuable learnings and wisdom one can take
from this pressing issue of the country.

At first, I will look at opportunities to which joblessness can be


transformed into productive labor at home or anywhere near my community.
Let’s say for example, the local government units have started distributing
seeds among households to maintain backyard gardens. This is practically a
viable means in which I can ease myself and my family from hunger. There is
always a way out if we look at situations using our heads and hands working
together us one. To get depressed won’t help in any way. It will worsen the
situation.

Second, I should check on how far my creativity can bring me. With the
new normal state of life, there have been a lot of opportunities where I can
atleast think of a way in which I can craft something for sale. Face masks
have become one of the basic necessities in today’s new normal. I can learn
how to sew and make some for commercialization. I need not buy cloth
anyway since there have been unused clothes of good conditions I can make
use of. I just need to make them look marketable. That, when it brings profit,
would give us money to buy food in return.

Third, the social media, especially Facebook, has also become a


marketplace for online sellers, whatever the products they are selling. I can
cook snacks or any food, at low capital cost to which I could sell at an
affordable price. I can also get some wholesale items and sell them on a retail
price.

There are indeed many ways to dress a chicken; same as there are many
ways to get out of hunger. It’s just a matter of finding the silver lining from
the situation. If a gastronomic Filipino feels hungry, that it the start to which
philosophy must work at all cost Prepared by:

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET Truth from Opinions

Background Information

There is a classic joke or conversation in an unknown logic class of an


atheist teacher. Atheist is a person who rejects or does not believe in God.
Teacher: Juan, do you believe in God?
Juan: Yes Sir.
Teacher: Juan, have you seen God?
Juan: Not yet Sir?
Teacher: Juan, to see, is to believe. If you have not seen God, therefore,
there is no God. (nobody is speaking in class then after a while)
Juan: May I ask you Sir?
Teacher: Yes Juan.
Juan: Have you seen your brain Sir? Teacher:
No?
Juan: Classmates, let’s go home, our teacher do not have brain.
If you laugh, maybe you find it as a joke. But if you try to answer the
questions “is Juan right in his judgment about his teacher?” than you may find
another emotional response. Studying the arguments may bring twist to the
story from a joke to conversation that carries lesson depending in your method
of philosophizing.
Remember, methods of philosophy differ from the methods of
philosophizing. Methods of philosophy is a systematic way that helps in
learning the process of doing philosophy while methods of philosophizing is to
think or express of oneself in a philosophical manner. As human, discerning
truth and opinion helps us see things more purposeful in our daily life.
This Learning Activity Sheet will guide you in evaluating truth from opinion
in the different situation using the different methods of philosophizing that will
enable you to:
a) apply the Socratic Method of Philosophizing.
b) evaluate fallacies in the arguments.
c) determine biases; and
d) evaluate opinion.

The Philippines’ Pandemic Response: A Tragedy of Errors


By Michael Beltran
May 12, 2020

The Duterte administration’s COVID-19 response marries incompetence with


militarism.

The Philippine government has been boasting that as early as March 16, they
had the gumption to implement a lockdown in major cities and provinces in response
to the unfolding COVID-19 pandemic. However, Manila’s overall response to the
pandemic has been fraught with incompetence and rife with terror. …

The whole world is looking forward to a return to some semblance of normalcy.


But what makes the Philippine government one of the worst examples of handling the
pandemic is its incompetence married with militarism threaded throughout its
responses. The backlash facing Filipinos now and after the quarantine is quite a
distressing picture. It is a bleak one marred by a totalitarian streak and the people’s
increased realization that the state is more intent on filling jails and the pockets of
Chinese businesses than starving stomachs.
Michael Beltran is a freelance journalist from the Philippines.

Background Information

“No One is Perfect except God” is one of the old ideas that we often hear from
different people committing mistakes. The idea is perfect on his way and right if and
only if you accept. However, looking at the concept by asking, “does it help me
transcend?” or “will it lead to mediocrity of performance?”. People look things
differently, however knowing our limits make us understand what we are capable of,
exploring our possibilities makes us more rational, and transcendence will bring us
anywhere, and going beyond our physical being that may bring more color to our life.

In this, activity you will be guided to recognize how human body imposes limits
and possibilities for transcendence and able to:
a) define limitations, possibilities, and transcendence.
b) differentiate Human Person from animals;
c) relate human traits towards transcendence; and

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET The Human Person as an Embodied


Spirit

Background Information for Learners


“There are no limitations to the mind except those we acknowledge.” as cited by
Napoleon Hill.
We, the human persons, are the highest form of animals created by God with
intellect and free will. But our knowledge, abilities, skills, talents, and capabilities have
its own limitations because we are only humans. In the succeeding activities, we are
going to evaluate our limitations for us to be aware of it and know what to do and not to
do.
Transcendent means beyond the limits of possible experience. In Kantianism, it is
beyond human knowledge (Wikipedia). According to Mike Colagrossi, transcendence
refers to the very highest and most inclusive or holistic levels of human consciousness,
behaving and relating, as ends rather than means, to oneself, to significant others, to
human beings in general, to other species, to nature, and to the cosmos.”

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
By Saul McLeod, updated March 20, 2020
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a motivational theory in psychology comprising a
five-tier model of human needs, often depicted as hierarchical levels within a pyramid.
Needs lower down in the hierarchy must be satisfied before individuals can attend
to needs higher up. From the bottom of the hierarchy upwards, the needs are
physiological, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization.
