Network of Cooperative Schools of Heraklion
Aims
The dissemination and adoption of an educational practice, which is based on the basic principles of Critical Pedagogy and applies the techniques of the French educator Freinnet. According to these principles the learning process should be transformed into a relationship oriented towards the equal possibility of expression for all participants. In the context of such a view, the student learns to act independently, to approach knowledge inquisitively, to act collaboratively, and to think critically, while the values of justice, democracy, and solidarity are promoted in the educational process.
Freinnet Pedagogy
Celestin Freinnet was a distinguished French educator and educational reformer. His pedagogy is applied to this day, mainly through the Modern School. In Greece, since 2012, a pedagogical group has been formed under the name "SKASIARCHIO - Experimental Explorations for a School of the Community". Its purpose is the exchange of opinions, ideas, and proposals in a school community where the techniques of Celestin Frenet, criticism, and institutional pedagogy find their place.
