Abstract

In the last decades of the twentieth century and in the first years of the twenty-first century, electronic communication grew exceedingly worldwide. The greatest consequences of this factor were the insertion of various elements pertaining to the daily life of individuals. In other words, no matter how certain traditions prevail, what is universal and globalized has been able to break barriers in all frontiers, invading daily life, as well as the culture and aspects of a person’s daily life and the organization of society as a whole. Despite the fact that the use of technology is imperative in modern days and creates an obligation for people to “modernize” themselves, in the educational sphere much caution is required, even more than in other social spheres, once the simple adoption or usage of technology, such as educational software, doesn’t constitute a guaranty of quality education or even the ability to generate apprenticeship.
