Summary/Abstract: The current society is going through significant changes, both due to the emergence and development of digital technologies, as well as the lack of effective filters to detect information and its quality, given that the shortening of the path it travels in time and space, from the sender to the receiver does not still has a selection role. Young people, who do not yet have a personal system based on solid and valid knowledge and values, living in an era of self-centered, intergenerational disintegration, are looking for compass people to help them find their purpose and theirway. If a profession is acquired on the basis of natural characteristics, together with a certain level of education in the respective field, the human quality is only acquired through individual approach and personal effort, through the assimilation of rules, norms and customs, together with the identified behavioral models in the external environment. This environment is not secured by the presence of parents and those close to them, who a priori want the good of the young person. The student has at his disposal a huge virtual space over which those entitled to guide him have only limited control or even no control at all. Here he meets a wide variety of people, whose intentions he does not know, but who can exert a significant influence on him. This diffuse space populated with models and anti-models is still unexplored, and there is no definite exhaustive assessment of the impact it has on the young person. Arming pupils and students with tools to select the role models they will follow is imperative if we want a functioning society tomorrow.
