Editorial. El concepto de educación. carácter, sentido pedagógico, significado y orientación formativa temporal. hacia la construcción de ámbitos de educación

Abstract

The aim of this work is to establish the need to go beyond the nominal definition of the conceptof education and justify the existence of distinctive traits of the real definition of the term ‘education’ in the character and the sense inherent in meaning. The development of this work can be summarised in the following theses: • The nominal definition is necessary, but it is not enough. • The real definition demands to attend to traits of character and sense related to the object ‘education’ and to the educational act. • The concept of education integrates into the temporary formative orientation in each territory from the curricular architecture. Ultimately, it comes to form criteria about the meaning of “education” and the importance of Pedagogy in order to construct fields of education. Knowledge of education makes it possible the creation of fields of education with cultural areas, by transforming information into knowledge and knowledge into education.
