1. Promoting a reflection on the sense and motivations of the educational practice, through an inquiry on the importance of emotions and the practices of emotional sharing for the human formation and the development of a person.
2. Adequate knowledge of the texts; critical assessment; to know how to communicate their knowledge in a clear, coherent and well-supported way; sufficient mastering of the examined philosophical terminology.

The students attending the course, according to their experiences and interests, will be asked to assess critically some of the scheduled texts, in order to write a short, well-reasoned summary on some sections of them.
