Establishing a balance between knowing, knowing how to do and knowing how to be is a challenge being faced in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), which, along with the Bologna process, has sought since 1999 to ensure more comparable, compatible and coherent systems of higher education in Europe. From another perspective, the challenge is about science, technology and humanism. Classrooms, no matter the education level, are bearing witness to technological progress and, predictably, concerns about how technology is contributing to education. The change has generated new terminology that reflects the profound transformation: E-learning, Web-Based Training, Internet-Based Training, Distributed Learning, Advanced Distributed Learning, Distance Learning, Online Learning, Mobile Learning or m-learning. The blackboard and chalk are no longer symbols of education for children, teenagers or professionals. But is this the right way to proceed? The debate in Spain and elsewhere is focused on content and the way it is taught, without ignoring the importance of the resources used.
