May Pedagogics be classified as a science?

Resumen

In this article, we try to show that Pedagogy is not a science, but a meaningless language, an empty discourse. Four main arguments support this theory. The first one is the re- sistance of Pedagogy to use the scientific method, because if an educational system fails, either the facts are denied or the failure is put down to social circumstances, but the system is not questioned. The second argument is the increase of vocabulary, giving new names to things that already had a name, so as to hide the lack of ideas under a supposedly scientific jargon. The third argument is the use of an empty language (some texts will be reproduced where some mechanisms to empty language are displayed). The fourth argument is the increasing nonsense that is at odds with the common sense of any teacher.
