Abstract. The theory of action and enactivism make possible to get back the attention on doing, on body and on thinking, beloved to the activist tradition. Especially, the lab didactics has its roots in New Education, which is at the bottom of pedagogical activism that sees a revolution in the educational relationship in the puerocentric paradigm, in which the child becomes the active protagonist of the educational process and not a simple adult action’s passive receiver. Towards, the didactic farm is redefining its role in the educational system to lead to the development of didactic laboratory in educational practice. The educational value of this pedagogical place can be traced back to three main ideas: the active pedagogy of learning by doing; direct contact with animals and plants in their natural environment: it allows visitors to acquire knowledge and skills that cannot be learned in urban context; the sensory stimulation of a rich environment that makes the child protagonist of their knowledge. With the Edufarm research project we wanted to build a laboratory course with didactic farm as setting and learning by doing as the whole project’s “red thread”.

Abstract

Abstract. The theory of action and enactivism make possible to get back the attention on doing, on body and on thinking, beloved to the activist tradition. Especially, the lab didactics has its roots in New Education, which is at the bottom of pedagogical activism that sees a revolution in the educational relationship in the puerocentric paradigm, in which the child becomes the active protagonist of the educational process and not a simple adult action’s passive receiver. Towards, the didactic farm is redefining its role in the educational system to lead to the development of didactic laboratory in educational practice. The educational value of this pedagogical place can be traced back to three main ideas: the active pedagogy of learning by doing; direct contact with animals and plants in their natural environment: it allows visitors to acquire knowledge and skills that cannot be learned in urban context; the sensory stimulation of a rich environment that makes the child protagonist of their knowledge. With the Edufarm research project we wanted to build a laboratory course with didactic farm as setting and learning by doing as the whole project’s “red thread”.
