Anthropological keys to personalized education and the homo gaudens as a model of man

Estanislao Martín Rincón.

DOI:

Personalized Education is not a method of education or teaching, but a way of understanding education regarding the personal condition of man. Personalized Education in Spain has been built on a well defined image of man -that of the Christian philosophy- and follows a model of man that Victor García Hoz defines as homo gaudens, the man of joy. This image of man defines man as a corporeal-spiritual creature placed in the world as a person to be happy. The basic characteristics that distinguish the homo gaudens are: universality, reality vocation and optimism.

 

Key words: Happiness, Homo Gaudens, Joy, Personalized education, Victor García Hoz,

The revista española de pedagogía is present in the leading Spanish and international databases, such as Journal Citation Reports (JCR), Scopus, JSTOR, etc. In fact, it was the first Spanish journal to appear in JCR, where 95 per cent of the journals in the Education and Educational Research category are only available in English. Consequently, since 2017, the revista española de pedagogía has also made all of its articles and book reviews available online in English.

All of the articles published in the journal since it was founded in 1943 are available on this website. Articles can be downloaded for free apart from ones from the previous year.
