DIDACTICS, FROM CURRICULUM TO LEARNING STRATEGIES
The main issue we have analyzed in this paper is about the actual content of Didactics and its relationship with the concept of Curriculum, more related to the Anglo-Saxon tradition. We have shown how important both Didactics and Curriculum are in the teaching and learning process.
First we have presented the Nordic approach with the participation of several English and American authors. Later on we have analyzed more than 25 studies of General Didactics published in Spanish from 1985 to 1998. This section is focused on the descriptors of Didactics, Curriculum, Methods and Strategies. From our analysis we have concluded how even all of them take care about Curriculum only a few part gives importance to methodology and learning strategies.
In the last part we have included some suggestions about the most important contents for teaching in the 21st century based on Spanish and international researches (UNESCO, OCDE, European Community). As a conclusion, we would like to emphasize the idea of how Curriculum and Didactics must take care about the educational contents and also the learning strategies.
Key words: Didactics, curriculum, teaching, learning, learning strategies, contents of education.

LEARNING-CENTERED TEACHING STRATEGIES.
This article stresses the need of moving teaching strategies from curricular contents to one more learning-based approach. One of the main challenges teachers have to assume in the current conditions of schooling is just to become supporters of the student's processes of learning.
Starting from the meaning of the learning-based teaching as a general referent for didactics, nine factors influencing the learning processes are analysed: personal abilities, practice, task perception of learners, expectations, attribution, attention, context conditions, choral learning and feed-back. The first belong to the cognitive level and the last three to the social context of learning processes. All of them offer important knowledge for teachers to be the central resource for improving learning.
Key words: Learning-centered teaching, learning processes, teaching, cognitive conditions for learning, social conditions for learning, didactics, learning strategies, teaching strategies, expectations, choral learning.

DIDACTIC STRATEGIES TO ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE
This article is about how to achieve knowledge using didactic strategies.  It is organized in two main issues of content. First preliminary views, where we can distinguish several types of knowledge and its acquisition process. In this part we have also added a brief conceptualization about didactic strategies. Later on, some didactic strategies to acquire knowledge are presented. They are organized taking in account who mainly plays the action (teacher, student and group).
Key words: Typology of knowledge, didactic strategies, magisterial work, individualized work, socialized work.

DIDACTICS STRATEGIES TO VALUES ACQUISITION.
Educating in values is always essential, but finding the strategies that are needed to acquire this education is nowadays fundamental. Humans with education should grow as a person: the more knowledge they acquire to become more person, the more educational values will be achieved. However, in the opposite way, all the knowledge that does not help them to grow as a person would become a contravalue.
It is important to acquire right habits and values. Growing can be only conceived as a capacity of constant adaptation to the changing world that we are living in, and, of course, in the evaluation of habits and values.
Key words: Learning strategies, moral values, contravalues, values education, habituation, learning to be.

DIDACTIC STRATEGIES TO DEVELOPMENT OF PROCEDURES
A general review on didactic strategies that help to the development of procedures comprised in the didactic dimension called 'how to do 'is herein discussed. The different phases included in this dimension, from a simple application to the metacognition, are analyzed as well.  Additionally, several data are furnished to the terminological confusion that embraces this dimension and that has grouped or widely separated the most significant authors nowadays. Concepts, such as capacity, cleverness, handiness, strategy or methodology are often intermingled in an unjustified way, and thus, the intention to clarify their main similarities and differences is also done.
Those aspects that favour or difficult teaching and learning of procedures and the phases by which they go by are also discussed. The importance of its evaluation and those variables that we cannot forgotten, from that moment when a procedure is got into until to achieve its automatism are furthermore specially mentioned, taking into account the incidence of personal aspects of teachers and, specifically, of students.
Finally, several proposals are offered in order to classify the procedures differentiating three wide groups called as methodological contents, cognitive skills and psychomotor abilities. From each of them, the basic characteristics as well as the most interesting strategies are presented, analysing all that proposals made by the most relevant authors in this subject, from Kirby (1984) up to Monereo (1998).
Key words: Didactic methods, learning strategies, teaching strategies, teaching skills.
