Description
Summary:Pedagogic epistemology, as an autonomous philosophical subject, studies the development of knowledge in general. As subject applied in the domain of education science it has as specific aim the study of pedagogical knowledge, the manner in which the fundamental concepts in the domain of educational theory, training theory, curriculum theory, are built. The main aim of epistemology is to think critically about pedagogy, the research from the domain of education, training and curriculum. The part of pedagogic epistemology – as critic and problematic thinking – is to give to pedagogy that gnosiologic and heuristic aspect which confers to its ontological, methodological and normative step status of science.
