كتاب رائع للمفكر الكبير إدغار موران حول الأعمدة الرئيسيّة التي يجب أن ينبنيَ عليها أيّ مشروع تربوي في القرن ٢١. يتطرّق هذا الكُتيّب بأسلوب جميل و أخّاذ للتّحدِّيات الإنسانية التي يجب التّركيز عليها في تربية الجيل الجديد و الوسائل التربويّة و العلميّة التي ينبغي الإعتماد عليها مثل الرّجوع إلى تاريخ البشريّة لفهم الحاظر و استنباط العبر للمستقبل، و التركيز على اللايقينيات في سائر العلوم الوضعية لتجنّب التطرّف المعرفي، واستحضار مفهوم الُمرَكَّب في فهم الظّواهر الإنسانية، و أخيراً التشجيع على تعليمٍ...more
This is basically like applying his book "Method" to the process of learning or education. Like Gregory Bateson and others, Morin is pointing to a revolutionary change to our educational systems. Even taken at a micro level, the way in which we learn as individuals is our own to change. I dont' have to have it offered in a course for me to learn it and I write my own degree. This is they way I have lived my life. This book touches on a few key concepts. It is amazingly short, less than 100 pages...more
This is a compelling small book published by UNESCO. It contains 7 crucial essays in philosophy of education, ranging from discussion about paradigm to the discussion of of ethics. "Complexity" is the sacred word the author keeps turning to many times.
I regard reading this book as passport to enter the 21st century multicultural, multidiscipline & multicentric world. Read this book if you want to raise your awareness of the zeitgesit of our century.
