Abstract:
Social Pedagogy is a science that studies the ways of including both those who
deviate and those who are deviated from social participation legitimate environments.
In order that social inclusion takes place, these children and youths should play an
active role in specific learning and socializing processes that enable improvements in
their apprenticeship and socialization. Pedagogical intervention is a mediation in
learning activity and a way of conducting and purposing educational processes
through relationships. Those children and youths require a mediation of new values
in order that they can collectively take part in teaching environments made legitimate
by society. Those interventions intercede in single learning and socializing processes
by means of the mediation of practical, attitudinal content. Apprenticeship takes place
through one s interaction with others and the environment, with the society where
one lives. Group problem solving stimulates internal evolutionary traits that act when
a child interacts with others. The interaction among others is based on values that
guide our behavior. Those values describe the valuations that qualify acts, people,
feelings, behaviors and/or the moral valuations of our behavior. Faith is composed of
the values that have centralizing power in our lives; it is relational and seeks equity
among the people. In order that equity is met, common values shall be the location
where social educators will lay their hearts . Common values stand for the welfare of
the insertion group and direct one s attention towards favorable conditions so that
everyone can evolve. While every person is assured basic rights to social inclusion,
many are not able to benefit from that. Social Pedagogy is an alternative for
achieving social inclusion and the required educational justice.
