The revista española de pedagogía (Spanish Journal of Pedagogy or rep) is one of the oldest journals in the world dealing with pedagogical research. During the several decades it has been published, the revista española de pedagogía has always maintained the highest standards of quality and it has gained international awards.
The logo of the journal is a wheel, a symbol that wants to evoke several ideas: creativity and forward motion, the wisdom eye that enters into the knowledge of reality, the sun that radiates knowledge and makes ideas shine more clearly, as well as the globe, the sign of an education that is interested in the society where it belongs. This symbol, together with some other figures, is represented in the famous picture painted by Raphael entitled “the School of Athens”, in recognition of one of the most important moments of Pedagogy.

A general review on didactic strategies that help to the development of
procedures comprised in the didactic dimension called 'how to do 'is
herein discussed. The different phases included in this dimension, from
a simple application to the metacognition, are analyzed as well.
Additionally, several data are furnished to the terminological
confusion that embraces this dimension and that has grouped or widely
separated the most significant authors nowadays. Concepts, such as
capacity, cleverness, handiness, strategy or methodology are often
intermingled in an unjustified way, and thus, the intention to clarify
their main similarities and differences is also done.
Those aspects that favour or difficult teaching and learning of
procedures and the phases by which they go by are also discussed. The
importance of its evaluation and those variables that we cannot
forgotten, from that moment when a procedure is got into until to
achieve its automatism are furthermore specially mentioned, taking into
account the incidence of personal aspects of teachers and,
specifically, of students. Finally, several proposals are offered in
order to classify the procedures differentiating three wide groups
called as methodological contents, cognitive skills and psychomotor
abilities. From each of them, the basic characteristics as well as the
most interesting strategies are presented, analysing all that proposals
made by the most relevant authors in this subject, from Kirby (1984) up
to Monereo (1998). Núria Rajadell Puiggròs Key words: Didactic methods, learning strategies, teaching strategies, teaching skills. |
