Abstract

Educability refers to people's ability to learn and develop within an educational environment. This concept has

been approached from various perspectives, including biological, sociological, and psychoeducational

viewpoints. While the first two tend to focus on pathological aspects or social conditions, the psychoeducational

perspective emphasizes the importance of a contextual approach that considers both the individual and school

practices. From this standpoint, it is essential to redefine units of analysis, reassess the conception of

subjective development, and challenge the fallacy of the deficit category.
