Gestaltism is a psychological theory that emphasizes the organization of stimuli into wholes, rather than focusing on individual stimuli.
It is based on the idea that the mind organizes stimuli into patterns and structures, and that these patterns and structures are more important in determining our perception and understanding of the world than the individual stimuli themselves.
In education, the Gestalt approach is characterized by an emphasis on experiential learning and the development of problem-solving skills.

In education, the Gestalt approach is characterized by an emphasis on experiential learning and the development of problem-solving skills.
It is often used in hands-on, interactive learning environments, and emphasizes the importance of the learner's own experiences and insights in the learning process.
This theory was founded by a group of psychologists in the early 20th century, including Max Wertheimer, Wolfgang Köhler, Kurt Koffka, and Kurt Lewin.
