Abstract

PRETTO, Nelson de Luca. Education Challenges in the digital era: educaciones. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2011, vol.24, n.1, pp.95-118. ISSN 0871-9187.

The paper initially presents an overview of scientific and technological development, the global mainstream media system and the coexistence of some languages, which are intensively articulated from and by the great presence of digital technologies. An analysis is made of the set up process of digital networks and collaborative processes and Brazilian public policies for the digital culture, in particular the use of collaborative networks emphasising open/free software and collective production. From this the paper discusses the importance of the relationship between education and culture. We develop the idea of the intense use of horizontal and collaborative networks in educational processes which empower teachers and students to produce culture and knowledge. Finally, we reflect more closely on thinking of education from a plural perspective, i.e. educations.
