This research article attempts to identify the existing conceptions about the Didactics of Philosophy considered like a Disciplinary Didactics with an object of study in the syllabi of high-quality and accredited universities in the year 2018, in Colombia. To do that, a qualitative approach with a documentary analysis was undertaken in this article, only considering two sections in said syllabi: objectives and rationale sections. Results suggest there is a trend towards viewing the Didactics of Philosophy as a methodological element closely linked to a traditional view of didactics ignoring other important elements such as learning and critical thinking considered in contemporary perspectives. In the end, this paper leads to conclude that Didactics of Philosophy should have a greater concern for the integration of those processes to its epistemology in order to focus not only on what to teach but also on how to learn.

Keywords : didactics; didactics of philosophy; teaching strategies; learning; critical thinking.
