In this article we seek to understand the meaning of the term innovation and its relationship with Education and Technologies. The study was oriented towards surveying the opinions of teachers in an online survey, based on the survey methodology, distributed via WhatsApp. The valid responses of 19 public higher education teachers were analyzed and categorized. The methodological proposal was inspired by emerging qualitative approaches, such as grounded theory. Based on the analysis of the categories, we sought the thought of theorists who would deepen the aspects pointed out by the teachers. We prioritize updated publications on the meaning of innovation, innovation in education, the relationship of innovation with technologies and the future of innovation in education. This process led us to verify the different meanings that the term innovation has assumed in different periods up to the present moment, with its consequences, inequalities and inconstancy. In the end, we understand that Innovation is a social and human process of change for the creation of new realities, guided by the needs, availability and contexts of each period. Those emerging technologies can generate changes in education. Changes conditioned to the political action of inclusion and changes in all educational instances to overcome inequalities to train citizens who are aware and integrated into current and future social and economic contexts.

Keywords : innovation; technologies; education.
