Se cayó-lló el sistema: the experience of the affective turn from writing without the use of technology in philosophy lessons

Abstract

This text analyzes the experience of a group of university students who receive Philosophy and Thought lessons without using any element of technology, such as cell phones, personal computers, tablets or digital channels, in order to expose the importance of the affective turn in academic reflection. A focus group is held with a topics’ guide as an instrument for collecting information from the participants. It is concluded that, in digital humanism, the affective relationship established between students and technological subsidies is valued.
