SER, TECNOLOGÍA Y EDUCACIÓN: Ilusiones y Esperanzas

Abstract:

To speak about the philosophy of the technology applied to the education is a challenge and an urgency for the contemporary world; for what the article presents a boarding to the subject matter that Aristotle gathers the original meaning of the word -téchne- - in narrow relation with her -epistéme- as part of to know in wide sense; from to make go out of the secret thing and since they it make, up to like one be able 59 indeed -alétheia- Heidegger, one know that it looks for the virtue for a suitable government – Platon. The technology is approached in his origin, we look for his relation with the science, questioning his incident and dependence of the capitalist system of consumption. From here there appear some illusions raised by the system as the illusion of which the science and the technology would solve all our problems. Or illusion that the indefinite production of new technological products does not have limits; where there are demonstrated the incongruities and the disappointments that appear when we look at the horizon of the being of the technology and of the company, focused on the human thing. From these elements the search of the meaning develops of educating, of education from his roots up to the different conceptions that have taken in the history. One raises of equal way some illusions of the education as the illusion of which it teaches one and learns other one, or the illusion of which the education liberates, the illusion of which the education would make us equal. Finally it is approached to the education and the technology, from his relation in the search of to know, of to discover the truth -alétheia- demonstrating the illusion of which to possess major technology, it would improve the educational process, to propose a series of questions, which help us to change the look of the illusions to realities, to end up by saying that we should stimulate the use of the educational technologies in the classroom, but without having unfounded hopes that they will solve the educational problem; we should tend the humanization of the education and of the use of the science and the technology; to transform the exercise of the politics; returning to discover the person as an end in yes same.
