ANGELUCI, ALAN CÉSAR BELO  and  CACAVALLO, MARCELLO. BLENDED LEARNING, TECHNOLOGIES AND THE NEW COGNITIVE ECOLOGY: A LITERATURE REVIEW. Rev. Comunic [online]. 2017, vol.24, n.2, pp.229-246. ISSN 2238-121X.  https://doi.org/10.15600/2238-121X/comunicacoes.v24n2p229-246.

This article revisits concepts and authors that deal with contemporary transformations promoted by ICT and new media convergence prospects in education. Observing the contemporary communication processes by authors of cyberculture, seeks to indicate concepts that point to new trends in education that are emerging, including the hybrid school. New communication technologies associated with innovative educational practices have allowed the development of digital platforms widely used by teaching institutions for courses in various educational levels. They allow interaction between teacher, student and content mediated tools and processes that have transformed the traditional teaching and learning practices. In addition, the innovations arising from this new contemporary scenario have developed and improved multiple intelligences, resulting into a new cognitive ecology that shapes the human and artificial intelligences. This requires an educational system that is committed to the learning environment of the 21st century – characterized by multiplicity of places (be they virtual and physical), ideas, people and professional profiles that are more interdisciplinary, plural, and adapted to technologies.

Keywords : COMMUNICATION; CYBERCULTURE; TECHNOLOGY; EDUCATION; BLENDED LEARNING.
