Can we say that as the muse has learned to write now learning to navigate? That is, just as there was a step in ancient Greece from orality to writing, and then with the press, writing the text. Now we're in a great new revolution that is over the text to the virtual world of the Internet? Eric A.
Havelock said that with the advent of writing in Greece only meant a change in the media, but also the forms of Greek consciousness. This becomes a central theme: the passage of the texts to digital structure that gives the Internet.
Yesterday, the spoken word set the cultural system of the oral and the written word drew the cultural system write it, today's world of computers has begun to codify the cultural system of the electronalidad.
We are not facing a new technology, whose power is to accelerate processes, as previous information technologies, we have a technology capable of altering brain structure from their users, to their ways of interacting, social organization and their own epistemological and axiological universe.
We are better prepared to deal with stable situations and less prepared for unexpected situations.

move from a thought is based on the power of the texts found in the physical anchor to the new power of information in a virtual anchor, which in this case is the Internet. The power is in the accumulation of knowledge through books, but access to more information. Information provided as excessive finally the network of networks.
This knowledge is described by Baricco as a quick, superficial, based on experience and superficiality.
are clearly changes in society and reflected are closer than their means. Human and no mass.
The big cultural change that reveals the electronic speech is that children and young people are no longer mere consumers of foreign signs to become producers.
This change has an impact on the world political, social and economic. What seems very clear is that new generations will never accept third-party speeches without being involved in its construction.
Baricco gives examples of changes in areas as simple as football or wine. Spaces where superficiality and rounder is valued.
Being electronal:
Speech electronica (msn, face, twitter) is configured as an endless speech. Neither the beginning nor the end of the interventions of the speakers are marked. It is an ephemeral writing is writing of consumption.
Digital Migrant This digital migrant maintains the same levels of frustration that could have an ancient Greek in its attempt to shift from poetry to prose. As indicated Havelock, the rivalry between recitation and singing and writing, does not mean that there was a permanent coexistence between orality and write them down.
Many people today live with one foot in the textual world and the other in digital. Still collecting newspapers, CDs and books but in turn download music over the Internet, browse web pages and buy books through online stores. There continues to be an assessment of the physical and tangible but understood the advantages of virtuality.
Possibilities know that knowledge is stored not only in print but that information can be shared, constantly created and distributed through the network. The value is no longer material but in the virtual
Digital Natives (Barbaros)
A clear example of these effects is education. As described by Havelock general education concepts in ancient Greece had to adapt to orality. Had to be a link between adults and children to ensure learning from generation to generation. The offense of Socrates was asked to professionalize education. This affected the social and political control.
This change in education is repeated again with the massive and global literacy does not occur with the advent of Gutenberg's printing press, but with the industrial revolution. Situation in which education is determined based on repetition and obedience, as a tool for creation of consumers and in turn as a new possibility for social control.
again returns to education suffering a new rule change to this system of repetition and without arguments, to enter a new phase that is being defined. Where students have access to so much information that becomes nearly indigestible. Based more on education phone within this sea of \u200b\u200binformation rather than training for learning unknown knowledge.
teachers currently navigating dark waters, where students swim with your eyes wide open and ready to take a new wave. Learning in a digital age where we, the digital immigrants, trying to understand a world in which children (digital natives) are absolutely free.
is essential that journalists learn the extent of change. It is essential that the institutions responsible for training journalists not only identify the nature of the changes and their characteristics and consequences, but to develop new strategies to cope with the unprecedented. Bad we do face a new world with ossified categories in yesterday.
