Digital Artefact

Main concern: How the evolution of information technology -applied in education- will revolutionize the culture of our society, specially in countries where society -lack of schooling- is susceptible to loss their identity.

Which is the best way to strengthen important values for our society such as respect, fellowship or solidarity based on a more 'social-relevant' education?

About online education benefits:
One of the biggest benefits of online education is the flexibility in time management, e.g. if you have a part time job that doesn't allow you to study in traditional schedules you have the opportunity to access to online content anytime when you need it.
