Problematic world and the challenges of organizing educational experience in uncertain complex problems
Abstract
This paper aims to present the educational experience organization model according to the pedagogy of the problems of Michel Fabre (1948-), French philosopher, focusing on some questions raised on controversial social issues. Faced with challenges in a problematic world that questions the educational subjects regarding content, mode and time of teaching, and the learning relations, the Education responsibility is to provide the student and develop together with him two interdependent metaphorical tools that meet the compass and cartographic organization of the experience. The compass represents the cognitive and methodological functionality that structures formally the raising question process. The cartographic support is the material and cultural substratum of this process, allowing the location, orientation, and discrimination of the educational itinerary boundaries to be crossed by the student with the teacher’s help. In raising questions on controversial social issue, the association of ethical, scientific, political, economic, and cultural multiple coordinates with the rational and stable knowledge taught and reproduced in school changes the set of conditions and data mobilized to constructing or solving the problem. The treatment of these complex issues faces reductionist obstacles against the ones that propose a respectful methodological educational strategy from the plurality of argued and divergent positions. In a democratic school ethos and averse to normative injunctions, neither receptive to relativisms that prevent a dialogic opening about the experience founded on intersubjectivity, educating for raising questions in life in society involves regulatory and prudential dimensioning of the facts and values immersed in it. This exercise, to be carried out together by the education professionals, provides different possibilities of paths and choices to the student leading to ethical self-constitution, which is indeclinable in this problematic world.
