Abstract

Throughout this text the image of Europe transmitted to the pupils of the Serrat Bonastre Secondary School through projector slides is presented. With the background of intuitive pedagogy, projector slides were used to present different images on the basis of which to form a concept of what Europe was, its territory, and its culture. Thereby inviting pupils, through the projections, to come to know distant and not so distant realities, in order to draw them into European culture, through art, nature, urban landscapes, and the main monuments that adorn the cities. This enabled the learners to make mental journeys that led them to know other realities, albeit culturally, geographically, and socially close ones. The following lines are devoted to an analysis of the construction of this European imagery.

Keywords: European education, intuitive pedagogy, history of education, active learning, visual learning.
