Abstract

In recent decades there has been an irruption of digital technology in important areas of society. Numerous studies seem to prove that the continued use of technological devices has produced various transformations in the cognitive capacities of the human being, which directly affect the educational process. The objective of this article is to draw some conclusions, from the scientific evidence, about the pedagogical changes necessary to accept this increasingly evident reality in the educational field. To this aim, the work is structured in three sections that jointly generate a reflective unit. Firstly, an approach is made from theory to the problematic concept of technology. Secondly, examples of studies that show the impact of technology on cognitive abilities that directly affect education are presented (attention, concentration, memory, reflection, cognitive flexibility, autonomy and planning). Thirdly, the relationships that technology has in cognitive processes are explored, and from there in personal formation itself, using the classic criteria of R. S. Peters. Pedagogy, as a normative science, must help the human being to make judgments that allow reflection on the best possible use of technological means and not uncritically validate their use. These contributions are framed within two principles of action. On the one hand, the need to reduce the negative technological impact that comes from the continued use of digital devices. On the other hand, taking advantage of the possibilities that this technology also offers.
