Principles of Humanistic Teaching

Humanistic, humanism and humanist are terms in psychology relating to an approach which studies the whole person, and the uniqueness of each individual.

Humanisma method of beliefs concerned

with the needs of people and not with the religious ideas

Approacha method of doing something or

dealing with the problem

Humanistic ApproachA method of doing something that

concerned with the needs of people

The self or the individual is important.

Focus on the development of child’s concept.

◦ Learning is not an end itself. It is the means to progress towards the pinnacle of self development, which Maslow called as “self actualization”

basic principles

of humanistic teaching

1) Students should be able to choose what they want to learn.

Humanistic teachers believe that students will be motivated to learn a subject if it's something they need and want to know.

2) The goal of education should be to foster students' desire to learn and teach them how to learn.

Students should be self-motivated in their studies and desire to learn on their own.

3) Humanistic educators believe that grades are irrelevant and that only self-evaluation is meaningful.

Grading encourages students to work for a grade and not for personal satisfaction. In addition, humanistic educators are opposed to objective tests because they test a student's ability to memorize and do not provide sufficient educational feedback to the teacher and student.

4) Humanistic educators believe that both feelings and knowledge are important to the learning process.

Unlike traditional educators, humanistic teachers do not separate the cognitive and affective domains.

5) Humanistic educators insist that schools need to provide students with a non threatening environment so that they will feel secure to learn.

Once students feel secure, learning becomes easier and more meaningful.
