Summary/Abstract: Recent works on philosophical anthropology state that the changes related to the popularization of digital technologies have profound impacts on the anthropological self-understanding of the “homo digitalis.” One way of conceptualizing such transformations is considering the emergence of a distinctive digital culture. The educational relevance of taking these differences into consideration is called into attention given the current increasing need for online educational solutions. Research and experience in the field of intercultural education have provided both a warning about the difficulty of education in these settings and workable solutions based on teacher education. A subset of this literature draws upon the philosophical tradition of hermeneutics as sources of inspiration. The exploration of how these different images of the digital human being relate to educational practices can elucidate important concepts, practices and relations, as well as future research on the intersection between the fields of philosophical anthropology, of the philosophy of technology and education.
