Summary/Abstract: Science is undoubtedly the search for the truth. As Karl Popper maintains, The classical concept of science as the true, certain and satisfactorily proved knowledge is still alive today. […] However, it has become outdated years ago along with the Einstein revolution (K. Popper, 1997, p. 55). When practicing science, man should reject the dogmatic criterion of truth, as only then the search is worth of total attention. Everyone must, as A. Einstein used to say, find the proper way (K. Popper, 1997, p. 58).What route of intellectual journey am I to choose, then? It is the route of a pedagogue inspired by quantum physics. Why? Well, because I can see a striking relationship and community of thought. In education, like in quantum physics, an unusual, fabulous game is being played for our abilities, potentialities of cognition. The educational space, like the physical one, is not only given, but continuously assigned, not only uncovered, but continuously discovered, as if constantly on its way.
