Origen y desarrollo de la pedagogía experimental

Abstract

In order to make his article more comprehensible the author presents the philosophies of education that predominated at the end of the last century and the evolutive development of the scientific mind in Pedagogy. To this end he makes a distinction between experimental Pedagogy and empirical Pedagogy. This distincion leads to blame the lack of scientific mind of several modern schools. Besides he clearly explains the debated problem on the relationships and differences among Psichology, Educational Psichology and experimental Pedagogy. After pointing out the development of the quantitative trend of mind he carefully studies the introduction and development of experimentation in school. The wook ends by studing the scientific research in Didactics as well in the methodological as in the pre-methodological one to which he wants to give a project value.
