Per una comprensió històrica de les activitats aquàtiques: una mirada educativa

Abstract

An attentive observation of the educational aquatic activities show that these practices are based, basically, on constructs not deriving from the pedagogy but from the anthropology and/or the cultures established around water. Thus, the present article looks into the senses that are associated with these imaginaries that evolve from the relationship established between man and the aquatic media. In order to do that, the hermeneutic approach is used to understand what aquatic practices have been emerging through history, given that the principal idea uphold by this work is that the educational activity in the aquatic media has been shaped from the cultural imaginaries that have come up from the same aquatic practices preceding them.
