Enfoque del pensamiento del Sur frente a la teoría del Norte: conciencia y criticidad sobre la educación en la primera infancia

Abstract

The present critical analysis has the purpose of opening spaces for reflection on our educational reality and its influence on initial education, considering the notion of complex thinking. It represents the starting point to understand the over-influence of northern thinking in our curricular realities, which understands educational practice from a theoretical perspective far removed from practice. It is necessary to teach and prepare a generation that will live in a fast-paced world, respecting the variety of elements and social and cultural conditions that give meaning to the educational task where initial education chooses to follow humanistic guidelines, that is concerned with the full realization of the children in their early childhood, to form their critical conscience, to arouse their dissatisfaction with what is established and that leads them to be themselves, in communion with others and with the world.
