Learning Objectives
The course aims to affirm the need to place education for reason at the centre.
Through Bertin's perspective, the concept of pedagogy as a science, the articulated theoretical structure and the repercussions on the practical side of educational action will be investigated.
It will deal critically and problematically with the fundamental concepts of pedagogy: education, training and instruction, as their own areas of practice, which have taken on different meanings throughout history, intertwining, overlapping and distinguishing themselves within the language of pedagogy itself.
The analysis of the themes will be carried out by means of a pathway that will focus on the theoretical and historical foundations of the conceptual field of pedagogy, then moving on to explore and deepen some of its declinations referring to educational action and training in a reflexive sense.
The analysis will be conducted from the point of view of both theoretical foundations and possible methodological and operational dimensions.
In particular, the course aims to promote :
knowledge of the fundamental concepts of pedagogy (education, instruction, training)
the ability to reason according to the logic of general pedagogy, with regard to the concepts and themes addressed
knowledge of Bertin's thought with particular regard to the themes:
- Philosophy of education of a critical-transcendental character
- Conception of the Problematic nature of the educational experience
- Rationality characterising the pedagogical instance in a methodological rather than metaphysical sense
- Plurality of educational systems as a function of antinomian understanding
- Intellectual, ethical-social, affective education
