Abstract

The medieval time is not out of the search for the education purpose. In this assay I analyze the medieval education philosophy aspects from Saint Augustine and Thomas Aquinas’ teaching contributions. Especially through the Scholasticism method the philosopher interrogates their time about the truth of education: May only God be called master because he teaches or it is also possible to attribute this task to men? In the thirteenth century text Aquino analyzes the process by which students learn giving us the element of the discovery as an individual learning moment.
