Many authors and educational influencers have visualized and promoted the idea of a revolution in education, which others call reform or contextualization of the educational system. All are linked in a common denominator: emerging "CHANGES" that we need to make to form a generation adapted to the needs of a society that presents a global economy and a diverse and inclusive culture. As Kevin Robinson explains, the technological revolution has transformed the nature of work. Once safe professions are disappearing due to automation and artificial intelligence. For example, machines and algorithms are replacing repetitive and manual tasks. The modern economy increasingly values knowledge, creativity, and innovation. Soft skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration are essential in today's job market.

Likewise, modern societies are increasingly diverse. There is greater awareness and demand for equity and inclusion in education, ensuring that all students have access to quality education regardless of their socioeconomic background, ethnicity, or ability. Therefore, the education system is responsible for addressing these challenges by focusing on developing these competencies since future jobs will develop skills that still need to be clearly defined. Job competition is now global, and students must be prepared to compete locally and internationally. This requires an educational approach that fosters a global perspective and intercultural competencies.

Hence, the learning environment must constantly evolve due to the impact of these elements discussed above. Another element under consideration that has generated profound changes in the educational environment is the integration of technology since it is revolutionizing how we teach and learn. Digital tools such as online learning platforms, educational applications, and multimedia resources are making learning more interactive and accessible, personalizing the educational experience and adapting the content and teaching media to the individual needs of the learners. The combination of in-person instruction with online components (hybrid education) and the growing acceptance of distance learning have changed the dynamics of traditional classrooms by offering flexibility and accessibility to more students. Documenting and sharing these changes through blogs, academic articles, social media, and educational platforms can inspire other educators to implement similar improvements. Collaborating with other educational institutions to share innovative practices can amplify the impact of these changes.

Two research topics that I find particularly intriguing and believe could significantly contribute to our understanding of education are the motivational impact of digital resources on the writing process in kindergarten students, and the influence of blended learning in primary education classrooms to generate authentic learning environments. These topics hold immense potential to shape the future of education, and I am excited to delve deeper into them.

COVID-19 gave us one of the most significant developments in education: the adoption of video conferencing (Zoom and Microsoft Team). It provides educational access and continuity to millions of students worldwide. A crucial element that minimizes disruption to learning and ensures that students can continue their academic training from home. Today, it remains an excellent tool that provides the opportunity to collaborate with others, introducing a new dimension of flexibility in education, bridging distances, and reducing costs with the ability to record and playback classes that allow the group to review the material at their own pace, improving the understanding and retention of information.

Despite progress, there are critical areas that require attention and improvement. One of the main concerns is the security, interoperability, and accessibility of digital tools. Many digital sites can make managing multiple applications difficult. Create an integrated system where tools are accessible for students with disabilities. Data security and privacy are another area that needs improvement. Privacy policies and security safeguards need to be strengthened to protect information. Students and teachers should receive more training on cybersecurity best practices to prevent attacks and measures to protect their data.

Finally, continuously assessing and adapting educational technologies is vital. Gathering user feedback and analyzing the impact on student performance and engagement is crucial for ongoing improvement. Staying updated with the latest trends and emerging issues in educational technology is essential for educators, administrators, and tech developers to ensure these tools have the maximum positive impact on education
