The body, a universe of meanings: corporal instrumentalization on the web and disembodiment at school
The body has been distorted and instrumentalized at school; This social phenomenon has grown in an “invisible” way and has gained strength in recent decades after the mastery of new technologies. The influence of the web on the reproduction of the bodily practices of young people has determined a new reading of education. It is no secret to anyone that new generations learn more from their interaction with new technologies than from the traditional classroom. However, unlimited access to various virtual experiences has triggered a phenomenon related to the body concept that will be the central interest of this research, which is in the initial phase and aims to demonstrate the mechanisms used by the web that affect the construction of a new concept of body in young people and the mobilization of a new idea of corporality in school.
The research is exploratory and descriptive; content analysis and hermeneutics were implemented, which allow the interpretation of the phenomenon. The result of the first phase of the investigation related to the characterization of the phenomenon will be presented, which leaves as the most relevant conclusion so far the evidence of the instrumentalization of the body dimension that has been established largely with the immersion of new technologies and how these have transformed the body concept at school, thus influencing the teaching and learning processes.
