FARINON, Mauricio João. Education and a question of method: a debate about techne and elenchus. ETD [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.1, pp.261-275. ISSN 1676-2592.  https://doi.org/10.20396/etd.v20i1.8649261.

This article investigates a methodological problem present in the educational context: a tension between instrumental-productive procedure fixation or a dialogical attitude in which occur the examination, constitution or reconstitution of epistemic, existential and ethic-moral aspects that are the basis of the human actions. It is text with theoretical basis in philosophic perspective with the objective of reflecting on the presence of the tekhne in education and the need to constitute the pedagogical elenchus. On the bases of the defended argument is the conception that the tekhne while productive knowledge is not sufficient to meet the ethic-formative challenge, being necessary a methodological approach with dialogue and self-examination characteristics. These criteria are elenchus’ own, the Socratic-Platonic dialogical method, which refers to communicative environment, condition to self-formation and impulse of life. The principal challenge in the constitution of the pedagogical elenchus are pointed by criteria of liberty, alterity, interdisciplinary and thought as mode of behavior.
