The teaching of educational psychology and teacher training: notes on teaching and learning in the classroom in post-pandemic times

Abstract

This essay aims to analyze the challenges of teaching Educational Psychology in teacher training in post-pandemic times. Our research methodology is in the field of Philosophy of Education, in the sense of critically interpreting the training process of future teachers who are in degree courses. We start from the assumption that the displacement of the subject to act in the role of teacher is presented as a result of the relationships that are established in the transmission of critical knowledge in the classroom. This condition constitutes a re-signification of the school culture, in the sense of providing the experience lived in a relationship between equals. We can conclude that Educational Psychology in post-pandemic times should take on the task of re-elaborating teaching and learning the other in the school field as a way of building learning processes in which we can look and think about the world with respect to all kinds of life of our planet in order to avoid the ecological crisis and its devastating consequences.
