We often talk about education in a superficial way, leaving aside a more in-depth reflection on the essential processes for a child's development. Identifying these stages is essential to thinking about education and its role in society in a more in-depth way.
Here at LIT, the topic was debated in an online event with the presence of our CEO and creator, professor José Cláudio Securato , PhD, consultant in innovation and educational management Paulo de Camargo , and José Ernesto Bologna , psychologist, writer and consultant for companies and schools in innovation.
The three faces of education
Before considering the three aspects of education, Professor Bologna emphasizes that it is also necessary to identify the agents, that is, those who are involved in this process . Thus, for him, it is possible to recognize: family, school, company, church, State and, in recent years, NGOs as the main responsible for the education of young people.
In a more traditional view, in the development of colombia whatsapp data children, the family had the role of socializing, the school of culturalizing and the church of moralizing. This way of seeing education lasted for a long time, but Bologna says that today there is another approach that seeks to understand what preparation for life really is. Thus, he highlights the three faces of education as:
Schooling: refers to the teachings and cultural studies necessary to adapt to life in society;
Educational: concern with values and socio-emotional development;
Existential: where all the questions of human existence come in, such as the paradox between reason and death.
For him, this approach must be taken into account at the moment we are in: "Today we are living in an important moment in relationships. With contemporary events there has been a loss of character in roles. In a very deconstructed world, the good part is that it is possible to build a lot of things. Build a new society."
Furthermore, Paulo also highlights that education is a subject that is rarely discussed in society and there is a lack of communication to understand what schools, families, students and society expect from each other. "We have a very poor idea of what families think of schools," he explains. For this reason, he advocates advancing discussions about education by involving everyone involved in the process.
