The biological knowledge searched and developed in recent years,should serve as a strategy of achieve equality, more democratic environments an it much better preservation and quality of life. However, paradoxically, as a process of cultural evolution, we observe a distance between the ways to comprehend reality and the strategies of action to search for it. The theories of the greatest experts in the field of Education agree with two aspects: a dangerous vision of fragmented and traditional knowledge and the necessity of educating to construct new intellectual strategies and projected thoughts that allow deeps relationships and articulations among disciplines, methods and models, with more sensitivity and human compromise. Esta comunicación intenta argumentar respecto a la evolución cultural producida en Ia poblacion humana, a partir de analizar algunas revoluciones del siglo XX: las tecnologIas de Ia información, los procesos de comprensidn científica, Ia organización del saber y Ia distrihución social del conocimiento, en dialogo con la Biologla. El sistema educativo ya no es la única ni la principal fuente de información y apropiación del saber cientIfico, lo que obliga a las instituciones formativas a replantearse Ia relación entre producción-información-alfabetización. El conocimiento Blológico desarrollado a la actualidad, debería servir como estrategia para lograr una mayor equidad, ambientes rnás democratizados, mejor prevención y calidad de vida; sin embargo, paradójicamente como proceso de evolución cultural, asistimos a una brecha cada vez más profunda generada entre los modos de comprender Ia realidad y las estrategias de acción para abordarla. Los aportes teóricos de grandes maestros al campo de la Educación acuerdan en sos criticas en dos aspectos: una peligrosa visión compartimentada del conocimiento tradicional y Ia necesidad de educar para construir nuevas estrategias intelectuales y de análisis simbólico-proyectivo, que permita relaciones más profundas y articulaciones entre disciplinas, métodos, prácticas, modelos, con una mayor sensihilidad y compromiso humano.
