This open access book reviews the effects of the twenty-first century
scientific-technological and social developments on the educational
theory. The first part handles the subject, focusing on technology and
educational philosophy. In the second part, the implications of new
human and social conceptions towards the education paradigms are
examined. In the chapters of the last part of the book, more practical
dimensions of education are discussed. Transforming school designs,
school management, learning-teaching approaches and teacher competencies
are discussed in the context of broader social, cultural and
technological changes.
