| Sumario: | This paper discusses the cultural evolution caused by the technological knowledge revolution at the XXcentury, that has given origin to anothcr type of organization and distribution of scientific knowledge inScience and Biology, for the entirely human society. Nowadays. the educational system is neither theunique nor the main source of information and leaming science. Therefore, educational institutions mustrevise the relationship among production-inforination-alphahetizatjcn so that the principles (values) ofhumility, rationality and reasonability. 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. |
