It also describes its philosophical and pedagogical referents, since they have led the way to its present developments, even in distance learning. Our point of departure is the concept of <em>skill (técnica)</em> and its subsequent link with <em>science</em>, thus giving origin to the concept of <em>technology</em>, to later describe the way in which the latter gradually related to different cultural and social systems.</p><p>Special emphasis is laid on the impact that educational technology has had on Cuban education and on the identification of the philosophical and psychological assumptions that have been its point of departure, taking into account its historical background.</p> ER -
