L’Indice Bibliografico Pedagogico (IBP) è uno strumento in fase di elaborazione presso l’Università di Pisa che raccoglie e classifica la produzione scientifica italiana - in particolare di didattica e pedagogia speciale degli ultimi dieci anni - articolandola in vari ambiti tematici e di ricerca. La loro definizione, con la relativa tassonomia, ha comportato riflessioni e approfondimenti sullo statuto epistemologico della disciplina. A tal riguardo alcuni autori (Frabboni e Pinto Minerva, 2000; Laeng, 2002; Portera, 2020) assegnano ancora un ruolo all’Antropologia pedagogica, intesa come conoscenza del soggetto umano e dei suoi processi di apprendimento, i quali, benché costituiscano fattori fondanti della differenziazione didattica (d’Alonzo, 2016), sembrano assorbiti dalle Neuroscienze, dalla Psicologia e da altre “Scienze dell’Educazione”. A questo punto, si può ancora parlare di “studio del soggetto umano” come parte costituente della Pedagogia e della Pedagogia speciale?

Abstract
The Pedagogical Bibliographic Index (PBI) is a tool being developed at the University of Pisa that collects and classifies Italian scientific production - in particular of didactics and special pedagogy in the last ten years - dividing it into various thematic and research areas. Their definition, with the relative taxonomy, has led to reflections and in-depth studies on the epistemological status of the discipline. In this regard, some authors (Frabboni and Pinto Minerva, 2000; Laeng, 2002; Portera, 2020) still assign a role to Pedagogical Anthropology, understood as knowledge of the human subject and his learning processes, which, although constituting founding factors of didactic differentiation (d’Alonzo, 2016), seem to be absorbed by Neuroscience, Psychology and other ‘Educational Sciences’. At this point, can one still speak of the ‘study of the human subject’ as a constituent part of Pedagogy and Special Education?I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
