Abstract/Notes: This chapter focuses upon that interface between lifelong learning and older persons living with dementia (PLWD). Reviewing the area of fourth age learning – that is, learning initiatives for older persons living with physical and/or cognitive health challenges – it argues that late-life learning requires a distinctive geragogical perspective that is separate from pedagogical and andragogical principles for children and adults, respectively. This is especially warranted for PLWD who often cannot speak, not in control of their thoughts or body, and in different “irrational” relations to objects around them, and hence, necessitate a theoretical and methodological perspective that makes it possible for facilitators to validate and explore the significance of silence by focusing closely on space and visuals. While learning interventions for PLWD are marked by eclectic curricula – that range from information and communication technology, participatory arts, vocational skills to Montessori-based programming – most are limited by an excessive preoccupation with enabling the participants to restore their old “self” while overlooking how they can engage in creative activities introduced naturally through conversation and/or reminiscence. The post-humanist approach offers much potential for the planning, implementation, and interpreting of lifelong learning in dementia settings as it allows arts-based, visual, sensory, movement, and sonic practices to produce beneficial outcomes for post-verbal participants such as PLWD. Moreover, it acknowledges that successful learning initiatives in dementia care settings are premised on the facilitator’s capacity to skillfully connect with the participants and introduce activities at a pace that suited their abilities and interests.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter discusses requirements for implementing Maria Montessori's concept of education in terms of the design of the environment, didactics, and the teacher’s role. It begins with the Casa dei Bambini, her first school in Italy. The chapter continues with a discussion of Montessori school design and architects who found inspiration through Montessori pedagogy. A common thread through the chapter is the concept of freedom and its prerequisites, children’s work with the didactic material and the materials’ relation to embodiment and variation theory.

Abstract/Notes: This article constitutes a summarized narrative of the historical-educational context in the development of teaching-learning strategies with the use of computational technology. We selected some thinkers and traced a timeline, which began, in Part 1, with Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Avicenna, René Descartes, Francis Bacon, John Locke, David Hume and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. In this second part we describe the theories that were directly influenced by the thinkers described above. We begin with Immanuel Kant, exponent of the late modern age. In contemporary education, we started Maria Montessori and her Golden Material; going to Jean Piaget, the great name of constructivism; Lev Vygotsky, founder of social-interactionism; and Paulo Freire with liberating education. And finally, the theories of Seymour Papert, a pioneer in the study of information and communication technology as a teaching tool. / Este artigo constitui uma narrativa resumida do contexto histórico-educacional no desenvolvimento de estratégias de ensino-aprendizagem com o uso de tecnologia computacional.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter explores various calls for alternative visions for education, especially those calling more specifically for equivalents of education of the heart. While education of the heart has been one of the primary goals within various educational systems, especially within the global south, there have been several synergetic concepts like Learning To Live Together, Social Emotional Learning, Global Citizenship Education, Emotional Intelligence, and peace education that have emerged across the world. Drawing on practitioners’ vision, the chapter emphasises the role of education for harmony (within oneself and in the wider world) for building a commitment to the wellbeing of oneself, others, and the world at large, with the hope that this will inevitably shape an intrinsically and naturally just, peaceful, and harmonious society.
