How to help build a well-ordered mind

In this article, we have addressed the organization of thoughts, understanding it as a factor that is also associated to mental health. Thus, we have discussed possible contribuitions of the educational process to the construction of what we can understand as a mental organization that AIDS the understanding and the logical reasoning. We have observed, thus, the teaching function and its help to the logical organization of the learning necessary to life, to cohabitation, and to the social relations. We have observed, also, that the attitudes are expressions of an autonomous, coherent and structured thought, that has been formed during the human development, receiving signifying contribuitions of education. The article has adopted the methodology of an essay, building arguments with theoretical consistent bases that sustain its approaches, with attention to the analyses of the cognitive abilities and of the processes of assimilation, indution and metacognition.
