Pedagogy and technology: the transformative impact of digital tools in education

Abstract

This bibliographic review addressed the transformative impact of digital tools on education, focusing on the interplay between pedagogy and technology. The central problem was to understand how technology reshapes education, both in pedagogical practices and in the development of 21st-century skills. The main objective was to explore the nature and extent of this impact, considering opportunities and challenges for students and teachers. The methodology adopted was a literature review, allowing a critical and comprehensive analysis of relevant publications. The results showed that digital technologies offer significant opportunities to innovate in education, but also present challenges such as unequal access, the need for teacher training, and the adaptation of methodologies. Successful experiences highlighted how effective integration of technology can promote critical skills and educational inclusion. It was concluded that technology is a transformative element in education, capable of improving the quality and effectiveness of teaching. However, overcoming existing barriers is essential to maximize its potential. The research underlined the continuous need for innovation and investigation in educational technology.
