THE HEBEGOGIA:SCIENCE OF THE EDUCATION OF THE ADOLESCENTS

The education of the man is a process that is fulfilled throughout all the life. And the life constutuye a set of perfectly connected stages, where each one contributes, absolutely enriches and projects the necessary conditions for the progressive integration, that includes the profit of the total humanización.

And that total humanización is an infinitely collective process, of mutual relation between the people in the social conglomerate where each one is including. But also he is finite, already in the individual sense, because it is limited in two-way traffic: the initial, in the conception, and the end, in the death.

If we considered vital the process individual of each being, we obtained that this it is constituted of different stages, with different physical necessities, sicologicoconductua to them, of social relation, educative. In the case of these educative necessities they adapt, in each case, according to the stages of the development of the human beings, basically studied until now, childhood, adolescence - juventod, and adultez. That is to say, in a beginning of the study of the education like collective process of incorporation of the individual, one studied in base of “education” the boy, and the science of the education is born and it is developed directed to that period of the human development. It is as well as it is born the Pedagogía.Pero, like the scholastic period, the time of the individual occupied in his education is made long more and more getting to occupy his adolescence and adultez, the methods, techniques, instruments, etc.aplicados to the education of the children, in the beginnings of the education, are also applied indistitamente to the adolescents and to the adults, without differentiation.

Later, with the advance of the society, of sciences like psychology, sociology, and their diversification, theoreticians of the education reached the conclusion that the different stages through which passes the development of each human being, demanded different approaches in the handling from the educative process. This fué raised in the land to differentiate only between children and adults. Fué as well as reached the conclusion that everything what until the moment it became, to apply the Pedagogía, science of the education of the children indifferently to the adults, it did not fill the educative necessities of the adults, and is as well as it appears the Andragogía like science of the Education of the Adults.

But, we dare to raise, that approach is insufficient, inasmuch as the psychological conditions are not considered, social and of stage of development of the adolescents, not covered neither by the pedagogical approaches nor by the andragógicos. He is as well as I consider the necessity to construct a new approach, that leaves from the conditions of the adolescence for its education, that can happen the new Science in the land of Sciences of the Education, that comes to be the HEBEGOGIA, or Science of the Education of the Adolescents, that like the Pedagogía, and the Andragogía, will have its frame of specific work.

Perhaps, many of the problems that today appear in educative means of the adolescents, difficulties of adaptation, revolts without cause, weakness to resist the temptations of it drugs and the consumista masificación, have to do with a scholastic process without the adapted freedom the age, incorporation of the responsibility shared, development of the own interest towards autodidaxia, development of the respect and love to the work, valuation of the social fights and incorporation to them or revolt with cause.

Bond then, of my part, to give by initiate the creation of this new Science of the Educación.Y I hope to find a predecessor in raising it, and if there is, because I will be I will be first, after enough years of educative work with adolescents in different situations from the average student and no extrastudent.
