Summary/Abstract: The paper reflects upon human infosphere, an area that has not been subject to research so far. The pedagogical dimension of infosphere is discussed. The first part defines infosphere as an environment of information. The second part is devoted to the pedagogic aspect of infospehere. The third part provides conclusions and implications for pedagogical practice. The article is aimed at parents and school teachers as well as researchers in the field of pedagogy. The unique educational value of infosphere, understood as a structured environment of information, is emphasized. Experience and observation demonstrate that the upbringing environment can be turned into the pedagogical environment due to the deliberate action of parents. As a result, a new quality emerges in the family environment. Thus, the environment moves from being passive to being active, from being schematic to being innovative, from monologue to dialogue, from being ambivalent in action to being stable. Thus, given appropriate conditions, infosphere can become a highly effective means of upbringing and education in the family.
