ABSTRACT:
The aim is to contribute for the humanization of the teachers and scientists in training, as well as of science itself, by investigating perspectives of correspondence between some aspects of Carl R. Rogers’ significant learning theory and Paul K. Feyerabend’s epistemology. From the convergences between the educational and the epistemological framework, we can verify the potential correlation between (i) learning to learn from the subject in the learning process with the understanding of scientific knowledge in constant development; and (ii) methodological pluralism with the use of diversified practices for both the educational and scientific spheres. Suggestions for implementing the interlocutions between the aforementioned theoretical contributions are also presented; showing that the discussions are feasible under factual conditions of universities.
