Technologies, information technology and education. Visalberghi and the current debate

Starting mainly from the texts in the archive of the journal Scuola e Citta and from the book Programmazione tecnologica e processi di comunicazione, the article presents Aldo Visalberghi's thoughts and ideas on the use of technology in education. According to the pedagogist, this use must be oriented in different directions, such as collaboration or individualisation, which demonstrate the relevance of Visalberghi's thought. The danger of the market as the only guidance is then analyzed. In conclusion, is discussed the transformation that nowadays the world of education must necessarily undergo.
