The components of a critical curriculum in philosophy, ethics, and religion, are considered, on the basis of a reflective approach to didactics and the curriculum. The results allowed to unveil three trends in curriculum designs: historicist, standardized and problematic, which guide the educational practices in Humanisms. Likewise, significant pedagogical experiences such as philosophical dissertation, public speaking meetings, the philosophy intercollegiate forum, the use of information and communication technologies applied to the ethical and religious education, are highlighted, all of which are associated with various didactic approaches.
