Detailed Course Content

The course in General Pedagogy aims to provide an overall frame to the current identity of pedagogy, as a possible science of the educational process, in relation to today's epistemological debate and to the role that the scientific model assumes in legitimizing a configuration of pedagogy as "knowledge of the actual and "contemporary", as "knowledge of reason and heart," as " plural knowledge," as "projectual knowledge".

Within a knowledge with a constructivist identity, among the many entries, the program focuses on a systemic-relational turning point in order to: suggest, through the pedagogical itineraries of Bateson, Lipman, Novak, lines of research for a deconstruction and re-construction of the process of knowledge and the promotion of a responsible attitude towards oneself and others; promote a reflection on an educational practice that will make the people in education aware of the right to educate oneself to interdependence: interdependence between cultures, interdependence between personal stories, interdependent systems.
