Contribution of Emilio Uzcátegui to Educational, Thought and Practice In THE CONTRIBUTION OF EMILIO UZCATEGUI TO EDUCATIONAL THOUGHT AND PRACTICE IN ECUADOR AND LATIN AMERICA By ANNETTE KESTELL PIZER A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1973 Copyright by Annette Kestell Pizer 1973 . ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A number of people contributed greatly to this study. The writer expresses gratitude to Drs. Richard R. Renner and Vynce Hines, her doc- toral cochairmen, and their fellow committee members, Drs. Robert D. Myrick, G. Alexander Moore, and Arthur Newman. To her friends, Julia Mora of Bogota, Colombia, and the Mark Kinneys and Florence Chan Conseco of Mexico City, the writer expresses appreciation, along with other patient friends in Phoenix, Arizona, in- cluding Norma Gordoa, Maria Rosales, and Moya Esterling, who assisted in verifying and editing the English translations from Spanish. Dr. and Mrs. Emilio Uzcategui and Dr. Francisco Terdn of Quito were unfailingly generous, gracious, and kind. During the writer's July, 1971, visit, they contributed a wealth of pertinent background information and materials. Finally, the writer wishes to express appreciation to Roberta Solt for her assistance and cooperation in the final preparation of the manuscript iii PREFACE Following World War 11^ improved communications and expanded tra- vel opportunities marked the closing of an ethnocentric North American orientation. In the United States a growing awareness of sociocultural diversities among peoples triggered a series of generally positive changes. In the past several decades, a perceptible concern has arisen for students whose cultural backgrounds have deprived them of the prelimi- nary experiences necessary for success in typical U.S. educational in- stitutions. Many specialists, including social scientists and educa- tional theorists, have achieved considerable insight through isolating and defining problem areas. Many solutions have been tried. But too often their timely contributions are limited to laboratory schools, for application has been restricted by the absence of efforts to link theory with continuous practical application. Now, educators are learning to face the grim realization that ethnocentr icity, social class, and racial distinctions must be surmounted in order to facilitate sound decisions about educating students. Those with an interdisci- plinary orientation to the social dimensions of education can make an invaluable contribution to this need area. Growing popular concern for achieving world peace through interna- tional cooperation has indeed influenced reassessment of U.S. educa- tion patterns at all levels. The value of rewarding social relation- Iv ships in personal, national, and international realms has taken on prominence equal to curricular and instructional methodology. Interna- tional and comparative education specialization, offering opportunities . to employ interdisciplinary approaches, has revitalized the education field. Renner explains, The common thread which seems to tie the various facets of international education together, however loosely, is the quest for fundamental meanings in a world charac- terized by diversity. It is the familiar process of seeking answers to questions of intrinsic importance to all men. Whether a more widely based pursuit of mean- ing in a philosophical vein is sufficient to prevent war is problematical. Yet, where does the search for methods of creating a world political community begin if not in the minds of men? The educator, though he may lack satisfactory answers, is responsible for mak- ing the quest as meaningful to his learners as possible. [1961, p. 7] Education certainly is a channel through which international under- standing and world .peace may be negotiated. Here is this study's under- lying premise. The irrevocable degree to which technology has developed sophisticated weapons of catastrophic destructive potential suggests that current cohesive practices facilitating international awareness must be reinforced and expanded. Solutions, furthermore, can no longer exclude cooperation by the total population masses involved. Humanity, at whatever stage of in- dustrialization, must achieve closer educational equanimity to preserve an environment necessary to sustain a satisfactory life style. To achieve this goal for Latin Americans, Emilio Uzcategui of Ecuador has devoted his career. V TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOI^EDGMENTS ill PREFACE iv ABSTRACT ix CHAPTER I.

Renner Major Department: Foundations of Education The study assumed that a contribution could be made to the com- parative and international education field by examining the life and contributions of Emilio Uzc^tegui Garcia, Ecuadorian educator and statesman, whose career has afforded him the opportunity to initiate many Latin American educational reforms. The researcher utilized a social sciences and humanities inter- disciplinary orientation to gather the data and to interpret and describe the findings. Interviews with Dr. Usccitegui were conducted in the summer of 1971, and a review of his writings, covering a span of 40 years, was integrated into the approach. An overview of the land and cultural heritage of Ecuador, from the Uzcitegui perspective, included the pre-sixteenth-century era through the present. A focus was also carried through this time period with regard to Ecuadorian educational evolution. A biographical sketch highlighting aspects of Uzc^tegui's child- hood, education, and career was given in one chapter. Two other chap- ix . ters presented his educational thought and methodology including his "active-school" concept encompassing " progresista " attitudes which re- flect a synthesis of progressive educational methods adapted for Latin America and Ecuador. A concluding chapter covered salient points of the Uzc^tegui perspective on Ecuadorian educational reform and included such problems as literacy, educational professionalism, curriculum stan dards, the educational environment, professional obligations, and the scientific, reflective, philosophic, and instructional orientations appearing in Uzc^tegui's endeavors, in addition to his views on secular and compulsory education matters in relation to human rights and educa- t ion X CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY Introduction Emilio Uzcdtegui Garcia was born May II, 1899, in Quito, Ecuador, where he lived with his mother and two older brothers until his depar- ture for advanced studies in Santiago, Chile, at age 14. Since his return to Ecuador from Chile in 1925, he has occupied numerous dis- tinguished positions including several UNESCO assignments in Latin T America. After completing his Bolivian UNESCO mission in 1965, he and his wife, Maruja, who is from Guayaquil, returned to Quito. They have one daughter. Uzcategui continues to teach courses in education at the Universidad Central in Quito. In addition' he practices law, par- ticipates in educational legislation activities, and holds the honorary position of Bolivian Consul to Ecuador. A resolute commitment to his writing projects consumes most of his leisure time. His most recent book, Histor ia de la educacion en Hispanoamer ica , will be published soon [ 1973]. Uzcategui 's prominence as an educator-statesman has generated in- terest in his writings and educational contributions. The evolution of his liberal thought is remarkable when viewed within the conserva- tive cultural context of his birth. His aristocratic family represented Sierra elite regionalism which disdained the anticlerical, liberal,

  • La Ilustración En La Real Audiencia De Quito
    ACADEMIA NACIONAL DE HISTORIA LA ILUSTRACIÓN EN LA REAL AUDIENCIA DE QUITO Discurso de incorporación del Dr. David Vela Lombeida como Académico Correspondiente Quito, 03 de mayo de 2017 LA ILUSTRACIÓN Surgió en Europa y fue un movimiento en parte político y también cultural, que en esencia promulgaba una reforma radical en la estructura ideológica del antiguo régimen. Se fundamentaba en los avances y éxitos de la nueva ciencia y hacía uso de la razón como el motor del progreso; sus ideólogos buscaban incrementar el bienestar del mayor número posible de personas. La Ilustración, con su programa ideológico, cultural y político, se extendió por Europa y América colonial. Los ilustrados se opusieron frontalmente a la superstición y al fanatismo. Por una parte, no todos sus miembros provenían de los mismos estamentos sociales. Por otra, no todos ellos se oponían a las mismas formas de pensamiento, ya fueran propias de la cultura popular o de las prácticas y creencias religiosas. El pensamiento ilustrado no siempre combatió la religión y la autoridad. Tampoco la libertad de comercio que defendían muchos de sus correligionarios benefició al conjunto de la población, sino a minorías provenientes de la burguesía y la nobleza. Voltaire, una de las figuras más relevantes, al tiempo que defendía la tolerancia religiosa, negaba la investigación de muchos naturalistas porque parecían contradecir la necesidad de un Ser Supremo. Como otros muchos filósofos e ilustrados, el poeta de Francia, como le conocían sus contemporáneos, parecía preferir el sistema newtoniano al cartesiano, porque este último, a su juicio, conducía a la irreligión y al ateísmo.1 Sin embargo a pesar de las diferencias y contradicciones, el movimiento ilustrado mantuvo una cierta unidad en sus propuestas.

  • View the Enlightenment As a Catalyst for Beneficial Change in the Region
    UNA REVOLUCION, NI MAS NI MENOS: THE ROLE OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE SUPREME JUNTAS IN QUITO, 1765-1822 Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Beau James Brammer, B.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2010 Master’s Examination Committee: Kenneth Andrien, Adviser Stephanie Smith Alan Gallay Copyright by Beau James Brammer 2010 Abstract This thesis examines the role the European Enlightenment played in the political sphere during the late colonial era in the Audiencia of Quito. Until the eighteenth century, Creole elites controlled the local economic and governmental sectors. With the ascension of the Bourbon dynasty in 1700, however, these elites of Iberian descent began to lose their power as new European ideas, emerging from the Enlightenment, led to a process of consolidating and centralizing power into the hands of Peninsular Spanish officials. Known as the Bourbon Reforms, these measures led to Creole disillusionment, as they began losing power at the local level. Beginning in the 1770s and 1780s, however, Enlightenment ideas of “nationalism” and “rationality” arrived in the Andean capital, making their way to the disgruntled Creoles. As the situation deteriorated, elites began to incorporate these new concepts into their rhetoric, presenting a possible response to the Reforms. When Napoleon invaded Spain in 1808, the Creoles expelled the Spanish government in Quito, creating an autonomous movement, the Junta of 1809, using these Enlightenment principles as their justification. I argue, however, that while these ‘modern’ principles gave the Creoles an outlet for their grievances, it is their inability to find a common ground on how their government should interpret these new ideas which ultimately lead to the Junta’s failure.

DP teacher Introduction The country of Ecuador boasts one of the largest populations of Diploma Programme (DP) participants in Latin America with 708 DP candidates in 2011. There are currently 51 IB-authorized schools in the country, including 50 offering the DP, six offering the PYP and six offering MYP (several schools offer combinations). Ecuador has shown an exceptionally high level of support for IB education: the Ministry of Education (MOE) undertook an initiative beginning in 2006 to support the development of a DP in each of the country’s 24 provinces. Subsequently, based on President Correa’s conviction that Ecuadorian secondary education could be vastly improved by following the DP model, it was decided to dramatically expand the number of state schools participating. Because of the high level of interest of the Ecuadorian government, as well as to advance its own knowledge of school development and school transformation, IB entered into a contract with the National Center for Education, Schools and Teaching (NCREST) at Teachers College, Columbia University to conduct research on the DP in Ecuador.

Afro-Ecuadorian Educational Movement: Racial Oppression, Its Origins and Oral Tradition by Ethan Johnson, Ph.D. [email protected] Associate Professor, Black Studies Department Portland State University Portland, Oregon Abstract In this paper, three objectives are presented, first, to describe the socio-historical context of Afro- Ecuadorians generally and specifically related to education. Here, it is demonstrated how colonial and nation building practices and processes have attempted to silence and make absent the contributions people of African descent have made to development of the nation. Second, the Afro-Ecuadorian social movement is considered within the local, regional and global socio- historical context, and it is argued that the Afro-Ecuadorian Etnoeducación is part of a continuous struggle for freedom and inclusion in the nation as full citizens.
