Education is an art. Educational work, today, is considered a delicate task of accompaniment, a shared life project, inten- tionally proposed goals, and values assimilated by those who facilitate the educational experience itself: educators. Vitally linked to the educator is the student, the center of all educa- tional action in his own social context, in his personal dyna- mism, in his generational sensitivity, in his dreams, and in his aspirations. The educator and the student are key factors in the learning experience. Both are an essential element in the educational universe. Both are, metaphorically speaking, a binary star: two bodies with similar mass orbiting around a center of mass in elliptical orbits. In the absence, or loss of one of them, in the relationship or in their own individuality, the educational ex- perience itself is destroyed. Both must fluctuate in the role of each other, linked, but not assimilated. In this book, education is an art that touches the most sen- sitive fibers of the whole student: the heart. The heart is un- derstood as the center of decision-making, as the place where affections are clearly present, as the meeting point where will and reason converge, like the horizon in which educational love meets and intertwines with reason and openness to tran- scendence.
