Educational Values within the Scope of the Technological Revolution

Summary/Abstract: In order to tackle the various challenges of nowadays society, it is necessarythat education be oriented not towards the nondiscriminatory and abusive disposal of pedagogicalideas of Modernity, but towards their transformation and adjustment to the particularities andfeatures that postmodern society calls for. Set within the scope of technological changes, society andthe educational system try to face the pressures within and outside the system and to face the need tochange. Democratic societies, based on respectand mutual support, humanism and social justice,require the development of educational policies that could lead to the building of a universal values’culture including: the truth, justice, love. There is a constant search in educational practice to findsolutions for the attribution and respect of values, of the rights belonging to all those who are beingeducated and to equal chances granted to each of them. This way, educating children becomes morethan a mere syntagm of Postmodernism, but rather a firm and clear requirement of our times,determined by the stringent needs of the present.
