CURRICULAR ACTIONS OF CHYRON: TIMELY ETHICS IN THE FORMATION OF TEACHERS OF PHILOSOPHY
Chiron’s Myth, curriculum acts, philosophical education, self-consciousness, timeless ethics.
This thesis brings the news of articulating the constructs “Curriculum Acts” and “Education on Act”, apprehended from the Ethnoconstitutive Theory of the Curriculum, with the philosophical content present in Chiron’s Myth ( the “wounded healer” from Greek mithology).

Also it is done methodically, integrating the educational experiences from the author (ethnoresearch), the exploratory research of the bibliographical type, qualitative approach, the essayistic writing style and on the basis of a hermeneutic that at the same time transfigurates metaphisically those constructs and apprehends the “know thyself” as the unique development expedient. Capable of making a aspiring philosophereducator have conciousness of the own True Self – discerning it from one’s own mental, emotional and instinctive phenomenologies – moreover toss this individual in the transformative adventure of philosophical self-education. It is a “curriculant and educational epiphany”, as Dr. Roberto Sidnei Macedo says irreverently, that proposes to the philosophy professor that this one’s acts of curriculum pass through, in the first place, its own conciousness. That means, that those be self-conciousness acts, educational acts that join purposes and practices regarding the self-knowledge, or self-sacredness perceptions and experiences cumulative and integrative to the conciousness. Which make possible a greater wideness of one’s self-conciousness and consequently, the conciousness as an educator
