Summary/Abstract: The Italian Pedagogical Association (Associazione Pedagogica Italiana), founded in Florence in 1950, is still active throughout the country, thanks to the coordinated effort of the numerous local sections. The distinctive feature of the Italian Pedagogical Association is to bring together school teachers of all levels and university professors in order to improve and renovate the school and any other educational institution, as well as to enhance studies and researches in the field of Pedagogy and education. The section of Padua has distinguished itself since its founding by the organization of conferences and refresher courses for teachers of elementary schools. A significant amount of documentation relating to the activity of this section is currently preserved at the Museum of Education (Museo dellEducazione) University of Padua.
