Video Abstract

As a science of education, pedagogy contributes substantially to the design of new generations of humans through the training methodologies and processes that are interpreted and implemented within it.

The methodologies of traditional pedagogy were developed in a pre-digital era, so they could not take into account the transformations, risks and opportunities of information technologies, let alone AI.

Here, then, it is essential, in order to achieve the goal of Homo Extensus, to develop the new techno-methodologies, enabled by Artificial Intelligence and other digital solutions, such as virtual reality and augmented reality.

Adding to the goals of traditional pedagogy are other questions related to the ongoing digital transformation: “what kind of person needs to be trained for a society that pervasively uses Artificial Intelligence?”, “what skills need to be developed to critically and independently live the role of citizen and professional in the AI era?”
