The use of technological tools has become commonplace in homes, offices, banks and many other businesses. People who didn’t have the opportunity to go to school use electronic bank terminals and some smartphone functions that require them to recognize certain symbols without much difficulty. Scientific research and the sciences in general have achieved results at an astonishing speed that was unimaginable at the beginning of the last century. The very speed with which a vaccine for SARS-COV-2, responsible for Covid-19, was developed is proof of this. Some vaccines took decades of development and testing to finally show results, but in the case of SARS-COV-2 in less than a year, the tests are already in phase 3 of development and therefore only a few months away from showing results. Society has adopted new behaviors as a result of technological advances. Computers are very common in many environments and bring with them a digital language, greater speed in the transmission and storage of information and even a change in social relations, especially with regard to teaching.
