Competências - Um caminho educativo para novos desafios

Abstract

The present article, based on the analysis of post-modern reality issues, aims to put in perspective an educational path that may constitute a valid project to successfully manage the new challenges presented by our global world. That educational path is based on the competences model, whose anthropological conception, promotes individuals capable of dealing with the post-modernity challenges. In the last part, an articulation between competences and the needs brought about by the new social order is made, functioning as a conclusion, which is preceded by a justification path, in which the concepts of competence and post-modernity are presented.
