ABSTRACT

Digitality: changes and mutations in everyday life



Omar Chanona Burguete


Digitality is a cultural construction that derives from the sum of information and technical findings that allowed the digitalization of knowledge, processes, productions that fully cover our daily lives and our way of life. The planetary realities have changed not only because of the incorporation of technologies, its devices or equipment, but also by all the languages intrinsic to their implementation, which constitutes a new parallel reality, a new form of civilization that operates with its own codes and requirements. Knowing this languages, the new human practices, the innovations associated and, and the phenomena of acceptance and rejection related to its presence are fundamental for comprehending and taking advantage of this new dimension of reality in which all the references of time and space have been transformed. Education is no stranger to such processes and the understanding of these will sum to the imagination of solutions and answers needed to virtuously assimilate a culture of digitality.
