Abstract

Theoretical pedagogical research acquires a special significance at the present time, when the scientific nature of pedagogy is debated in the universal sphere and there are not a few who drastically deny it. The present work is part of a broader study of the Pedagogy Project whose purpose is the construction of a conceptual framework that serves as a basis for the elaboration of a pedagogical theory and for the conception of the transformations that the innovative curricular model of school requires. The General Project begins with the historical outline of educational ideas and also addresses research on the scientific nature of pedagogy and the philosophical, sociological and psychological foundations of pedagogy. By inserting itself into this project, the subject here dealt with takes up some theoretical approaches already expressed in the rest, although at other times its reiteration has not been deemed necessary.
