Educational Value of the Pedagogy of Accompaniment

Summary/Abstract: Pedagogical work supports the development of the pupil by helping to achieve well-being, harmony in relationships with oneself and the environment, and, consequently, one’s goals. However, this vision of human development in pedagogical practice may take various forms. The article presents the vision of pedagogical support which results from the perception of humankind and personal development in terms of accompaniment pedagogy, also known as Jesuit pedagogy. The subject of reflection is the spirituality that arises from the spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola. Its uniqueness lies in its theocentric and Christocentric perception of the world and humankind. In this spirituality, two principles deserve special attention – magis and cura personalis – which, both in practice and in scientific reflection, seem to lead to a synergistic effect. Referring to the message contained in these principles, the article presents the possibilities of using accom- paniment pedagogy in everyday educational interactions.
