Convergência tecnológica como movimento intra e intersocial: as contradições dos processos de inserção das TICs na educação

Abstract

This article deals with the contradictory movement intra and intersocial that characterises the ‘technological convergence’, over all when analyzed in the context of insertion of the  TICs praticals of one school´s everyday . At this differentiated locus, the main characteristic seems to be continuum of the affirmation and negation movement of the production, appropriation and diffusion processes of the scientific knowledge. From a sociological analysis of the complexity of the expression  “technologic convergence', initially appropriated from the mathematicians, this article has as target the comprehension of the multifaceted way of technologycal construction, going beyond the scope of material production. In function of its economic dimension as instrument for the solution of real problems, the  ‘technological convergence’ tends to add the direction of a movement intra and intersocial in its constitution´s process. This sociological reflection proposal updates the concept using factors that are part of a new technological convergence, giving it a symbolical and ideological dimension, that the deeply study demands.
