Abstract
Digital screen is the main pattern of the digital revolution. Around the world schools and universities, changes printed pages in favour of digital screens, creating innovative platforms for learning and assessment methodologies, however many others keep the traditional approaches of teaching and printed textbooks. The new paradigm of learning is focused on development the vital competence for sustainability. Although educational system has been opened by the globalisation, the diversity of digital screens is a big challenge for this process. How digital affects the opening process of the educational system and, therefore, changes the behaviour? This scientific question inspired the ideas presented in this chapter. The aim of this chapter is to compare the features of digital screen with the intention of multiliteracies’ learning.
I cannot teach anybody anything,
I can only make them think.
