La corporeità nelle professioni educative. Indagare i significati sottesi ai gesti professionali

[Autom. eng. transl.] Educational work unfolds in a continuous circularity between theory and practice, where the person of the educator, in his entirety, plays a central role. Despite this, the pedagogical discipline, in the face of a broad in-depth study dedicated to knowledge and words, has little explored corporeity. Neglecting the messages conveyed through the body means not considering fundamental elements of the educational process. The contribution aims to present a methodological approach to the study of professional gestures, which allows educators to start a training course of reflexivity on corporeity and action to find useful elements for renewing practice.
