It is a sunny, Sunday morning. You are 12 years old. The breeze invades peacefully through your 2<sup>nd<\/sup> floor bedroom window, playfully taking over the sun warming the bed. No school, no work, no problems. No fuzz. Nothing stands in the way of your easy-going, adventurous, pure-fun day. No enlightened screens to buzz, and numb your mind as soon as you open your eyes, no notifications to count desperately, no hungry-for-more followers. Keeping it simple. Some bread with peanut butter, blue jeans, a rockin\u2019 t-shirt, and you\u2019re off to find the gang. The old ways.<\/p>\n<p>Just before you exit your room, you see him, and he makes your day again. Dee Snider on the wall calling you to \u201cBe Cruel To Your School\u201d. You offer him your purest smile, and a promise that you\u2019ll always be. The smile\u2019s gone, as soon as the thought of Ms. Williams yelling at you <em>\u201cWhat a waste of oxygen you are!\u201d<\/em>, and asking you <em>\u201cHow can you have any pudding?!\u201d<\/em>, attacks your brain and, just for a few seconds, tries to mess with you. You might be <em>just a kid<\/em>, but you know damn well, not to let anyone grind you down. It is the day of the dog; your day. Everything\u2019s real, everything\u2019s possible, everything\u2019s beautiful. Live forever, strong as steel.

Truth be told, never was there such a thing; times come and go, and their very core is, more or less, the same. It is the ways that differ. Ways that can either harm, or offer valuable resources towards evolution.<\/p>\n<p>And let it be written, the ways have radically changed. 20 years ago, we would laugh and mock the person who would dare to give us a picture of today\u2019s society. Everything going through our all-knowing, infinite-wisdom screens, with us absorbing so much information, in such little time, that when we turn them off, we barely remember who we are. We fall in love through a screen, often swiping off many people in a matter of seconds, until we find <em>the right one<\/em>. We make friends online, thousands of them haven\u2019t we got all? New friends every day, all with such great lives, interests, moments. A friend in need, is a friend indeed of course, and our online friends shall be there for us, when we desperately need our dose of reassurance. Nothing wrong with that, is there? So many applications to communicate, with so many options, that people barely have to talk anymore. Ughhh. What a relief.<\/p>\n<p>We cook online, we listen to music online &#8211; well hell, all music is online nowadays &#8211; heroes rise and fall in a matter of days, satisfying the, desperate for drama, crowd. More.<\/p>\n<p>Hold you horses there partner. Do not get fooled, or overwhelmed, by such behaviors and phenomena. Technology is not the devil. It certainly can be, but it did not make an entrance waving its digital horns. Technology is a mean, a tool to open paths.

We come together with people that we never would otherwise, next-door or at the edge of the world, and music, movies, and books, so many exciting adventures, are in the palm of our hands in a matter of seconds, wherever we are, whenever we are. Communication has gotten much easier, faster, and cheaper. Thus, giving <strong>access<\/strong> to all.<\/p>\n<p>Um, right, so, if you have a yellow marker next to you, yes, the one you mark important stuff with, now is the time to use it. That is the keyword people, the gist of the whole thing, the one to be highlighted and referenced, again and again. <strong>Access<\/strong>. Because technology, no matter its negatives when used wrong, introduced the concept of free, universal, inclusive, access to all. And yes, it is true, that certain divides appear due to the very nature of technology, but even those, are fought through technological progress. There is nothing more inclusive, acceptive, and free, than a world made by all, for all.<\/p>\n<p>Flibbertigibbet is not a nickname we would particularly like to carry on our backs, so we\u2019ll straight away speak the words.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-823386c elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"823386c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e52847 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7e52847\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Five Points<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-355f8b9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"355f8b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Let us separate the main aspects of the Digital World, into 5 categories:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Communication<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Communication means life, new experiences, evolution.

A turn full of colors and light, where possibilities are infinite. Education has been presented with monstrous challenges during the last years. Situations that nobody expected, nobody was ready for. It felt like a shock, seeing schools, universities, and educational centers of any kind, closing down for long months, unable to face the fight. Apart from the challenges related to Covid however, education finds itself in a position where it redefines every single thing. Educational practices, learning and teaching methodologies, digital tools and platforms, distant and traditional ways, and many more. The digitalization of Education opens paths for great innovations, such as video-game based learning, Virtual Reality, and online educational programs, that apply both on educators and students alike.<\/p>\n<p>The possibilities are endless. Imagine school students at a remote school, not being able to travel abroad, being able to explore and wander among the biggest museums of the world, through a pair of VR goggles. Primary school students, learning about the concepts of health, exercise, hygiene, and a healthy diet, via educational video games, not being bored or bothered by ineffective traditional methods of teaching. Teachers and educators upgrading their educational skills and competences through on-line platforms, designed especially for them. There is no limit, no holding-back.
