Programme


Students will be involved in a co-constructed learning pathway oriented towards social justice in education.
Starting from outlining the epistemological foundations of Pedagogy (the specific object of study and intervention and the pathway to becoming a practical and theoretical knowledge that thinks and envisages education as a "Pedagogical Science" and "Borderline Science"), the educational and training potential of the performing arts, in particular theatre, will be discussed.
From the perspective of a critical and committed pedagogy, the themes of the pedagogy of the oppressed and the theatre of the oppressed will be explored in depth, including through practical and workshop experiences;
the complex, ecological and decolonial perspective and, specifically, the relations between colonisation-decolonisation and new migratory phenomena will be taken into account; the educational dimensions in the contexts of marginality and exclusion will be discussed; cultural deprivation, migratory trauma and educational poverty will be reflected upon; methodological hypotheses for effective communication in education will be co-constructed.
