Abstract
The approach to contemporary digital media technologies has two general orientations - 'techno-optimistic' and 'techno-pessimistic'. The author takes a middle position and tries to bring together the arguments of the humanistic philosophy of education and media theory. New media influence our perception of reality and ability to articulate that perception, and thereby shape the reality itself. The educational system includes new media through the 'media education' and its application as educational technology. The main postulates of this article are: (1) digital media technologies are not the purpose, but a tool in the educational process, (2) those tools influence changing of the educational process characteristics and (3) the specific purpose of humanistic education process is not lost despite those changes.
