Having knowledge, which is a symbol of power in the society, should provide an individual with greater ability to manage resources, and consequently, bestow the individual with power. Michel Foucault is one of the sociologists who left a significant mark in the history of sociology of knowledge.

 

According to Foucault, knowledge is "created" under the influence of the surroundings in order to keep the control and stability in the society. In his view, the society imposes its knowledge mechanisms, and the individual is forced to conform to the norms of the society in order to avoid being "punished".

​

A modern man's knowledge increases on a daily basis mostly due to the development of the technology we depend on. The education system, as well as any other system developed in the modern societies, has become a part of the knowledge apparatus that in technology sees the future and power of our civilisation. All of us belong to that system. Education is part of our lives, from birth to death, with the goal to become as efficient as possible in what we work on, offer and produce.

​

Different social media, digital tools, social networks have all made an impact on the development and concept of teaching in our modern age. Learning is not oriented only on the traditional teaching method, or face-to-face instruction, nowadays the method of blended learning is used in teaching, a combination of traditional teaching methods and modern technology. The instruction can be delivered as a combination of ICT supported teaching and learning and online teaching, that is fully online.

 

These teaching models are becoming increasingly widespread ways of learning among young generations across the world.
