Jose Abelardo Núñez Murúa

Born in Santiago in 1840, within a family of educators. His father was José María Núñez. Joseph was orphaned at age 14, studied at the National Institute and then at the School of Law, University of Chile, where he became a lawyer in 1865. Although practiced law and was about politics, his vocation early bent toward educational problems.
In 1879 the Minister of Public Instruction tasked to travel to the United States and Europe to study their educational systems. Of the countries I visit, the educational system that mostly impressed him was the German, mainly due to the precision of its operation.

"The first impression produced by a German school is the admiration of the dominant discipline within. You do not hear the slightest noise, less mess, all proceeds with perfect order. Teachers and students seem equally convinced that such a place no space or time for anything else other than study, and all since passed the threshold of the school observed a composure and seriousness as if they were in the church ... and what more worthy of mention is that this discipline, this order, not something forced in any way, nor the result of rigor, or the angry faces of the teachers who as effective disciplinary agents, have the stick or glove to his students, but rather are the children themselves who seem to profess an affection and respect for the school such that it can not think of disturbing the peace or disturb the correctness of the teacher. "

What more impact to Núñez was the discipline of German education, and his arguments in favor of this resolution were decisive in which educational model import. The less visible side great reception that took the proposal Núñez, relates to the sense given at the time to primary education by the ruling elite. Primary education was understood as a system of care and control of the lower classes, who constituted the mass of customers of public education. Note that the central concern was the primary Núñez tax. A new reform

Since starting this new phase began arriving the first teachers, mostly Germans, who introduced new materials in the training of regular teachers as psychology, critical pedagogy, teaching methodology, and other art-focused teaching.
In 1888 he was appointed Inspector General of Primary Education, and promoted the creation of primary schools across the country, and colleges of Copiapo, La Serena, Chillan, Victoria Valdivia, to expand education across the nation. For the training of teachers, traveled back to Europe to promote the recruitment of teachers exclusively Germans and Austrians were convinced that some of the best educational system. No field
he was banned as an innovator education, being in addition to above, founder of the Pedagogical Museum
This distinguished educator, active member of the Board of Education until the end of his days, died in Santiago
