Education and ludicity: a dialogue with the Waldorf Pedagogy

This article aims to relate the principles and foundations of Waldorf Pedagogy, an educational school of thought founded by Rudolf Steiner, epistemologically, methodologically and didactically guided to a multidimensional formation of students, with the concept of ludicity developed by Cipriano Luckesi, defined as the internal or subjective state of one who fully experiences or acts in a form of activity. Waldorf Pedagogy transcends the traditional instrumental and reductionist conception of the learning process to focus on the integration of thinking, feeling and doing in students' educational processes; it has thus proven itself to be a fitting model of playful education and furthermore a model for meeting the educational needs and challenges of contemporaneity.
