TY - JOUR ID - 38321 AU - Práger, Libor - Řeřicha, Václav PY - 2019 TI - The Loneliness of the Teacher in Digital Environment: Changing Education in Contemporary School JF - Hradec Králové Journal of Anglophone Studies VL - 2019 IS - 1 SP - 129-139 EP - 129-139 SN - 23363347 KW - Loneliness KW - teacher KW - digital environment KW - change KW - education KW - school N2 - The recent transition from the literacy environment based on alphabetic technology to the digital environment is viewed with emotions by the generation used to linear printed text. In education, textbooks and conventional curriculum have become outdated. The digital environment has made traditional classrooms controlled by a teacher obsolete. The attitude of some educators unwilling to accept the fact of the transition – who still treat the Internet as a kind of circulating library – makes them offer a futile defence of traditional linear-text format against hypertext. Teachers complain that students prefer feelings to thoughts and the literacy ideal of Homo universal has been replaced by Snapchat dysmorphia. Soon bearable technology and virtual reality will replace the physical classroom and the literacy teacher’s environment, as well as the now ubiquitous screens. The web and social media have become the monopoly of a few large industrial companies developing profit-generating algorithms. This article deals with the recent numerous books on the effects of the digital environment, ranging from apocalyptic visions to resigned acceptance. However, their authors are respected experts in social media, artificial intelligence and digital technologies and considering their views on education in the digital environment seems worthwhile.
