The "Whole Child Approach" theory is an educational philosophy that focuses on the holistic development of children, encompassing aspects such as physical health, safety, engagement in learning, emotional support, and cognitive and social challenges, rather than solely focusing on academic achievement. Authentic character-based assessment is the assessment of students' character development through observation and measurement of actual performance in learning activities relevant to everyday life.]]>
