PENA-RODRIGUEZ, Faustino. Educational Orientation in Colombia: A Line of Work with Scientific Pretensions. Pedagogía y Saberes [online]. 2019, n.51, pp.75-87. ISSN 0121-2494.

The educational orientation was not consolidated in Colombia as an educational work line because it tried to do it linked to scientific aspects, without having the theoretical and practical foundation to carry it out and without it being the foundational idea. This reflection article proposes that educational guidance is a line of work or action that derives its knowledge from fields such as psychology, education, psychopedagogy and sociology; areas that, historically, have had great difficulties to consolidate, with the exception of sociology. The article focuses on arguing in the first place, that education is a more comprehensive concept than guiding and it would not be necessary to refer to the action of guiding, when educating exists. Second, that the constitution of some of the fields that have provided, through history, knowledge to educational orientation, shows the theoretical vagueness of both the former and the latter and, above all, that the pretensions of scientific orientation have done more harm than good.
