When the facts change ... The future of pedagogy between continuity, departure, and contemplation

Celebration Speech at Doctor Honoris Causa

Summary/Abstract: The future is the most fundamental focus of pedagogic thinking; although, it is also its blind spot. Generally, the debate is oriented on the betterment of man over time; whether as an advance in the personality development and competencies of individuals or, as the more generic project we call: civilization. The latter has been defined by the degree to which reason has been properly used throughout history. How much personality development seems to be necessary and attainable can make sense only in the context of the use of reason. The form of expression is also measured by the self-distancing achieved through the development of the necessary skills to rationally analyze the world and justify the appropriate actions.
