The Status of Educational Science
in Italy |
|
| |
|
|
|
This contribution first
discusses the definition of educational science, which in Italy
expresses two manifestations: on one hand, in the sense of human
science (psychology, sociology, psychoanalysis, etc.) provided
that they explicitly apply to educational phenomenon; on the
other hand, in the sense of the specific branches of general
pedagogy (historical pedagogy, didactics, specialized pedagogy,
experimental pedagogy, adult pedagogy, etc.). On this basis,
the development of educational science after the Second World
War is examined, particularly those factors that formed their
orientation: first, the social needs established outside of
school, and second, the emergence of a real interest in the
training of the teachers. Especially interesting is the striving
for autonomy of the field of didactics, which demands its own
epistemological status and its own research methods. |
