PIERRE FAURE AND METHODOLOGY OF TEACHING


MY PERSONAL VOCATION TO EDUCATION, THE REASON THE SPIRITUALITY OF ST IGNATIUS OF LOYOLA " Father Pierre Faure
Born in 1904 in Pessac (Gironde), France, May 11, Pierre Faure. He studied high school at the Colegio de San José de Tivoli (Bordeaux), obtaining a bachelor's degree in Latin and mathematics sciences. Later obtained a degree in general chemistry.

In 1940 he organized courses and educational sessions for teacher training. At that time contact Lubienska Lenval Madame Helene, who works with him on these courses and work for long. Madame Helene was precisely Lenval Lubieska who helped in the upgrading of a number of pedagogical works first published by Editions Spes, rather scientific work with application of language teaching for children, allowing the simultaneous learning of reading, writing and spelling, actively and personally.
In 1945 he founded the magazine "Education", which is Director until 1972 and in 1946 organized a group of teachers to open a school closed during the war. Always in collaboration with Mme. Lubienska, organizes a training course of 20 days. Later Educational Studies Center finally moved to an office of the school Saunt Louis David. From this date the educational sessions are multiplied throughout France and abroad. The originality of these courses (15-20 days a month) was to be used, since its inception, the practical sessions with the children to continue their development and realize (in the educational plan) instruments work necessary for the student to take personal work and to exchange the fruits of it with their peers. In 1949 he founded a second normal school for teachers in Neuilly, associated with the first: "Centre de Formation Pádegogique" of Neuilly, which continues active today.

They all try to promote a pedagogy that aims at the total education of children and adolescents today, in a humanistic and spiritual perspective, personality and community.
"Pierre Faure studies the signs of the times and, like any good teacher, criticizes the existing school, were asked about their mission and try to recreate it. Male eclectic, includes ideas and experiences to meet the challenge of our time. His line of work focuses on the pattern of active education, reviews the new school, rejects extremism and try to avoid the imbalances that usually produce educational reforms. His approach is essentially realistic, if not pragmatic. In the suggestions for innovation carefully assess all aspects of school life. It is so important to him continuity and universality of education in education structures such as space, time devoted to personal work, the pupil teacher, materials, extracurricular activities, etc. Nothing is insignificant in a task where the decisive factors are multiple and interdependent
