Abstract

ROBLES, Darwin Joaqui  and  ORTIZ GRANJA, Dorys Noemy. The education under the sign of complexity. Sophia [online]. 2020, n.29, pp.157-180. ISSN 1390-8626.  https://doi.org/10.17163/soph.n29.2020.05.

Complexity involves the adoption of a new vision of the world, of oneself and of the relationships between various levels involved. The basic problem is that there is a disarticulation between a discourse that declares complexity as an essential construct and a schematic and reductionist practice that generates an incoherent context for learning. It is about introducing a holistic understanding that aims to respond to the new challenges that life and the ecosystem pose at the present time. The objective is to consider some reflections on complexity and then approach education from this perspective using a descriptive and analytical methodology, from a reflective position, in dialogue between different positions and with contributions from various authors to try to make something that is simple complex in itself. To carry out the tour, some introductory ideas are raised on the subject; then complexity is defined from its semantic origin to characterize it in its most determining elements. Later, it goes on to describe its principles: dialogic, organizational recursion and hologram. In a next moment, education is presented and the elements that must be considered to become complex to end with the exposition of some challenges that people face if they want to propose and even more, develop an Education under the Sign of Complexity.

Keywords : Complexity; education; sign; dialogue; reflection; learning.
