50 years without Célestin Freinet, 500 years backwards for school practices
Abstract
This essay was written in tribute to Célestin Freinet. In this year of 2016, the school education mourns the golden anniversary of his passing. As legacy, he left his books, important followers of the Modern School Movement, but, mainly, he has left inspiration for teachers to think and rethink their practice and the contingencies of the profession. The purpose of this essay tribute is to share two important legacies of Célestin Freinet: his books and the inspiration for teaching.
