Riyad Sedki's New Book Explores Foundations of Human Development Through Education

The Moroccan intellectual scene is enriched by the release of Riyad Sedki's new book, "Questioning Education: Foundations and Premises for Building a Human." Published by Africa Al Sharq, this work delves into a fundamental question that has resonated throughout human history: how do we build a human being?

“

The question of education has always been raised throughout the ages, and despite its antiquity, as old as human existence, it remains a current topic that poses a set of theoretical and practical problems, with a broad question arising: How is a human being built?

Sedki's research confronts the persistent theoretical and practical dilemmas surrounding education. He argues that education is not merely a pedagogical process but a vital pathway for nurturing generations, strengthening societies, and advancing nations. The book meticulously examines the mechanisms and skills essential for successful educational endeavors, contrasting them with factors that lead to failure.

“

From this perspective, the need arose to write about education, as it is a path towards preparing generations, building societies, and advancing nations.

Drawing from lived educational experiences, the book critically assesses the flaws and deficiencies in both conceptualization and practice. Sedki seeks to bridge the gap between intellectual contemplation and practical application, providing parents and educators with actionable strategies to prepare individuals for life. This approach combines deep thought with real-world experience, making it a valuable resource.

“

The new book starts from the lived educational reality to monitor aspects of imbalance and deficiency at the level of thinking on the one hand, and at the level of practices and behaviors on the other hand.

Ultimately, "Questioning Education" presents a holistic vision of education as a societal project. It underscores the roles of the family, school, media, and various stakeholders in shaping individuals. Sedki posits that a well-rounded educational framework is crucial for building a strong state and fostering societal progress, a perspective deeply relevant to Morocco's own developmental aspirations.

The work presents an approach that combines thought and experience, exploring the most important fields that form the process of education and human development, including the family, school, media, and various stakeholders.
