How can we avoid a dualistic approach? How can we establish bridges between reason and emotion, personal and social development? Are cooperative learning in the classroom and a multi - minded school policy strong pillars to build the bridge over trouble water? Once the conceptual background is established, we’ll present an enquiry conducted with a group of BA students who have been asked what are their ideas regarding work, character, interpersonal relations, values and mindsets. This will help us to recommend a number of pedagogical ideas to encourage students' active citizenship in a global world.engeducación para la ciudadaníaaprendizaje democráticodesarrollo personal y socialciudadanía activaaulaCitizenship Educationdemocratic Learningpersonal and social developmentactive citizenshipclassroomjournal article
