THE FOUNDATIONS OF EDUCATION AND ITS CURRENT IMPACT: INNOVATION IN SEARCH OF PROGRESS
As is well mentioned, education is a fundamental part of the development potential of a country, a better educated population tends to innovate and generate opportunities for themselves and others. Education is not completely linear, factors such as socialization are decisive for meaningful learning in each individual.
Te phenomenology consists of understanding the same phenomenon from different perspectives, for that reason we can observe different behaviors of students in a classroom.
We know that there are multiple factors that influence the acquisition of knowledge, education does not follow a single line, the social and cultural context are of great importance.
It is interesting to think about the future of the new generations, for example children born in the pandemic, or children who started their school life normally but who had to modify their routine due to the pandemic and social isolation.
Will these children learn and assimilate knowledge just like their parents or grandparents did? Even their personalities can be affected.
As we know, great characters in history such as Albert Einstein or even Walt Disney were not considered outstanding students, not even good students, but they became historical icons.
For this and more reasons, he considers that pedagogy should be flexible with the students.
I attached a link that mentions a little more about the life of the great physicist Albert Einstein.

All current school reform efforts aim to improve teaching and learning. But there are huge differences in how they go about it. Some reforms, for example, attempt to improve all schools in a district, statei
or countryii at the same time.
Other reformsiii attempt to influence the overall approach to teaching and learning within a school, but do so one school at a time. Still others, focused on innovative curricula (in science and mathematics, for example), typically address one part of a school’s program and aim for widespread implementation, while innovative approaches to instruction, such as cooperative learning, hope to change teachers’ practices one teacher at a time.
As different as these approaches to school reform are, however, they all depend for their success on the motivations and capacities of local leadership. The chance of any reform improving student learning is remote unless district and school leaders agree with its purposes and appreciate what is required to make it work.
