Abstract

This paper is based on a reflection on how we should conceive education for the 21st century, in which it is stated that education should be approached from a holistic perspective of learning, since the social and cultural changes that have occurred in recent times, it demands that we modify the vision of education in the last century. The pedagogues then speak of an integral educational action to encompass the totality of being, where the individual (cognitive-affective) needs of the students prevail. The development of the approach emphasizes how to apply the concept of holism in the teaching-learning process, in the role of the student, in the role of the teacher and in the contents. Finally, the importance of the commitment that we must acquire as educators to respond to the demands that our society demands in relation to education is highlighted.
