The context in which we educate

Abstract

Education always takes place in a specific context; it is marked by that context - although sometimes we educators are not aware of it - and has the capacity to transform it. Without knowing the context and without allowing themselves to be "bothered" by it, educational environments run the risk of offering answers to questions that nobody asks and of educating so as not to see, not to hear and not to transform reality. That is why it is "pedagogically healthy", at the beginning of the year, to take a look around us, to recognize the current challenges of the educational task.
