Education from Biopedagogy: The Charm of Learning for Life

Abstract

The challenges of modernity demand changes in thinking and acting. From the Complexity paradigm emerges a passion for a new way of learning through joy, tenderness, love, connection with the environment, and otherness, so that the acquired knowledge endures and enchants the existence of those who have enjoyed constructing knowledge and flavors in their journeys to cultivate themselves. Biopedagogy becomes the bridge between knowledge and the pleasure of perpetual learning. It connects us with internal formation, our endogenesis, and weaves us into the environment that we must embrace as part of the opportunity to survive and the pleasure of learning for life, it seeks to foster a genuine love for learning and an understanding of how our history, feelings, and actions reveal us as complex, holistic, and unique beings. This article aims to provoke reflection on the importance of envisioning the educational approach with the intention of transcending life through the joy of learning. It advocates for a pedagogy based on joy and is directed towards planetary citizenship, addressing anyone who serves as a mediator, facilitator, learner, or reader who wishes to fall in love with their construction process and perpetuate it in their journey. This writing establishes a connection between learning and life, emphasizing that one learns while living and lives while learning.
