Abstract

In contemporary attitudes of new digital technology role in education there is a domination of technological determinism, in other words – the belief that new technologies of education and learning are able to solve all main problems of the education in the contemporary world such as poverty, limited access to the education, huge inequalities. Actually we are facing the challenge to add some human dimension into such beliefs and humanize the technology in order to understand more complex nature of the digital education and implement more sustainable policies contributing to the protection of diversity, public good character of the education, its cultural role etc.
