From a pedagogical rhetorical perspective, it is here argued

framework for this reasoning is discussed, as well as

historical changes in pedagogical focus. Finally, it is

concluded that the educative character of the teacher has a

share the teachers’ knowledge, skills and values. Therefore,

there is a need for a greater awareness of these aspects to be

developed among teachers. (Less)
