On education, learning and training: bring windows where just walls exist

Turning a century is always troublesome for common and well-established systems. Like in other historical contexts, several questions arise to challenge our values on the way the world is working. What are the real effects that the evolving education system will bring to the society and the political global balance that we knew? What will be the new forms, institutional models and power relations that will have success in bringing education to people? What will be predominant form of interaction in society: personal, collective, in groups of common interest or in a combination of some of these situations? and will they be emergent ones or completely new? There is no easy (or even just one) possible answer to these questions, however one important factor is the role of technology in breaking the traditional time/space continuum and its natural impact in society in general. The present paper gives an initial contribution to discuss these topics.
