MEJIA-JIMENEZ, Marco Raúl. Change of era and its impact on education. Prax. Saber [online]. 2023, vol.14, n.38, pp.148-165.  Epub 25-Nov-2023. ISSN 2216-0159.  https://doi.org/10.19053/22160159.v14.n38.2023.16659.

The modern world is heading towards what could be considered its fourth industrial revolution, driven by technological advancements and artificial intelligence. This ongoing revolution, led by international organizations and global technology corporations, brings about a global standardization of education, as well as the expansion of the knowledge society, cognitive capitalism, and immaterial production. Amid these transformations stands the recent social syndemic that has spread worldwide, further exacerbating its effects through the social crisis that has been brewing since the dismantling of the welfare state and the rise of neoliberalism. Additionally, the transformation of control mechanisms has resulted in a renewed power dynamic. Therefore, creating new resistance movements that are capable of addressing modern social problems. These present times pose a challenge for 21st-century schools and teacher training. Thus, it is crucial to start thinking about education as a conduit for innovation and transformation by strengthening the connection between practice, thought, and resistance. This can be achieved through approaches such as popular education. By building on its historical and political foundation, popular education develops proposals that emphasize diversity, critical thinking, and the holistic development of individuals.
