Abstract
Viktor E. Frankl's intuizione about the will to meaning as a basic motivational tendency in human existence contain some important educational implications. If developed in their consequences, these ideas could lead to a revolutionary pedagogical paradigm. Especially Frankl's statement that education should switch from "transmitting knowledge" to "refining conscience" represents the pivot of an educational curriculum in which the person and his/her intentional relationship to the world is placed in the center and the search for meaning is the key principle of learning and the source of any educational experience.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
