Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce this upcoming Special Issue looking at “Critical Pedagogy and Literacy for Rethinking the Pandemic Environment”, in which numerous experts from different educational institutions globally will address issues of fundamental interest for both the educational and critical–social evolution of today's cultural context distorted by unpredictable events. These studies may include not only changes in educational paradigms, but also paths of critical reflection, and research that uses different language codes specific to literacies to rethink the concrete goal of learning. This Special Issue offers the possibility, starting from the reflections that have emerged in international contexts, such as the PsyEdu 2020 congress in Bergamo, which make up the debate on the perspectives regarding the complexity of critical pedagogy and the related themes of literacy for the rereading of environments in the light of recent and non-recent changes. Moreover, we invite contributions that can offer concrete feedback, research paths oriented to the solution of educational problems, and epistemological reflections based on the criteria of the complexity of the criticality of contemporary literacy pedagogy, capable of also involving transversally the different educational institutions, from childhood to university.
These reasons lead us to keeping the research path broad, above all preserving the possibility of establishing solicitation of interaction between different educational parts, considering the fundamental possibility of understanding, destructuring, and interpreting meanings for the freedom of each human being.
Topics:
Development of university teaching: new practices;
Teaching: methods and research;
Adult education and lifelong learning;
Non-formal education;
Several proposals for continuing education;
Educational reforms. Crisis of education.
