''The
issue of autodidactism, autonomous and self-organized learning is
becoming more prevalent, and we see that it goes beyond homeschooling,
unschooling and education without school, starting to be present in
university or job selection processes for different companies.
In
the National University of Colombia, supported by the Faculty of Human
Sciences, we have done in previous years different events around this
theme: International Congresses in the years: 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2014
and five semester courses on Education without School among the Years
2011 and 2014. We were also part of the organizing team of the
International Week of Alternative Education in 2015.
In
addition, with the EnFamilia Network, through the accompaniment we have
given to many families throughout the country in their process of
deschooling, we have experienced and verified the capacities of
children, youth and adults to learn in a self-organized way all types of
knowledge and skills of different fields and levels of difficulty.
At
the moment, we are also organizing a course at the National University
of Colombia, this time working as a team with the Faculty of
Engineering, in which we want to approach the processes of
self-organization of learning in the fields of science, technology and
engineering. We seek to show and analyze how, in a self-organized way
and without schooling, we can acquire knowledge of university level or
necessary in the professional and career world.
In
this course we want to show, analyze and discuss testimonies of people
who have lived and experienced this way of learning, contrasting them
with more theoretical investigations or foundations on the subject.
That's
why we write this message, to know if you have information about
self-organization of learning in the sciences, technology or engineering
that can share with us; could be books, research, articles, audiovisual
material, documented experiences, etc. All this will help us to show
how this phenomenon is current and growing not only in Colombia, but in
other places of the world.
We thank you in advance for your cooperation.''
