La metamorfosis digital del material didáctico tras el paréntesis Gutenberg

This article is an essay that analyzes the changes or mutations that are taking place in the characteristics and functionalities of educational materials in the context of the digital society. It is based on the thesis that the hegemonic didactic material of the modern school (specifically textbooks) responded to the logic of printed culture characterized by packaging knowledge and a standardized and mass curriculum development model. In this S. XXI educational materials are affected by digital transformation whose mutation is described in terms of five dimensions or areas: artifactual or technological, pedagogical, teaching functionality, learning functionality, and production processes, distribution and consumption. It concludes by pointing out that the metamorphosis of the didactic material does not consist only in a change of the technological format, but it must be fundamentally of the cultural story and of the pedagogical functionality of the material.
