The anthropological framework deals with the problem of man and the relationship between the anthropological and the pedagogical. In the epistemological framework, the nature of learning in the sciences and the characteristics of the scientific disciplines. Finally, in the theoretical framework, the conjugation of diverse elements linked to learning and some essential characteristics that the model being sought should have.
