Because of globalization, technology and communication in society are changing dramatically. Globalization is also associated with a new dynamic of re-localization between global space and local space.
|
The school today can’t ignore what globalization is creating, how it will definitely modify values and the logic of space-time relationships in modern thought. We need to take a new approach to the process of understanding and create new ways to communicate.

INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF EMPIRICAL AESTHETICS, CHICAGO, 2010 ABSTRACT The purpose of these topics is to suggest that educators experiment with different interdisciplinary approaches and strategies while using interactive multimedia in art education and to help them develop an efficient hybrid way of teaching.
How is research started? What are the preliminary actions? How are these preliminary actions linked to research? What possible post-research orientations exist for students that bring together the arts, science, and technology? Educators should present a new vision of global culture. Teachers should engage with their own cultural heritage but should not retreat it as if it were unchanging and somehow pure. Educators should communicate and preserve basic knowledge about the traditional approaches to art, while strategically facilitating the hybrid approach, which is the combination of traditional and technological components, within the classroom on a daily basis. The direction of my research points toward a new vision of globalization.
In addition to the necessary hardware and software environment, for educators the most important requirement for teaching issues related to technology and art has to do with a deep understanding of the immense impact of technology in every aspect of contemporary culture, particularly with regard to fundamentally altered ways in which we communicate, circulate, perceive, and imagine. The challenge in teaching technology and art today is to enter deeply into the language of technology in its most popular forms, from music to the image matrix, while enhancing the artistic imagination in such a way as to stimulate critical reflection on the technological dynamo. In a complex world whose workings are increasingly technological, we must help our students understand technology on its own terms. No longer are technologies simply used to control our environment; they have become our environment. This basic fact presents a challenge which the liberal arts must address if they are to remain vital. Adapting to the demands of information technology also presents an important opportunity for the liberal arts. On the one hand, training within the liberal arts promotes competencies demanded by the high-tech world: critical thinking, careful reading, clear writing, effective communication, and problem solving.
