Communication Disorders and Learning Difficulties

The speed at which information has to be processed calls into question the model on which we have been basing our learning for years, shifting towards the idea that it makes less and less sense to know a lot, and that it makes more sense and is more useful to know how to do things”

In this first part of the 21st century, we are witnessing breath-taking changes that are causing a profound cultural and social transformation. Driven by the technological revolution, which makes these changes much faster than in previous crises and revolutions. Our brains are also undergoing changes as they have to process information more quickly. This revolution is leading human beings to question the forms of relationships, values, institutions, economy... and new paradigms are emerging that will establish new ways for new times.  In the field of learning, we are witnessing many of these changes.
