The transformation of the Czech Education Paradigm after the Velvet Revolution - Turning to Child Centred Education and Its Importance for the Existential Themes of the Child
Original language description
The chapter reflects a new Czech pedagogical paradigm called „the child centred education“, „personally developing education“ or „pedagogy of turnabout“ which influenced the Czech educational system after the Velvet Revolution after 1989. The text presents major changes in pedagogy and in thinking of Czech experts who opened the space for difficult, overreaching topics in children’s education. One of them is the care for the soul and guidance to transcendence, which is emphasized by the “turnabout“ education for the Czech education system. This concept highlights existential questions and themes that have been taboo for a long time with regard to the ideologisation of the school system and educational indoctrination. These themes are e.g. freedom, the meaning of life, the value of life, conscience, faith, God, the infinity/finiteness of a human and death. The focus of the text is on the topic of death in relation to children and school education.
