The symposium brought together leading international scholars, educators, and theologians to address a fundamental question: how to preserve human identity and ethical principles in an era of rapid technological transformation.
In her presentation, “Innovative Trends in Education,” Olena Budnyk addressed the challenges of educational digitalization, the advancement of artificial intelligence, the application of neuropedagogy, and gamification. A particular emphasis was placed on the “anthropological crisis,” highlighting the blurred lines between humanity and virtual reality across several dimensions: Existential, Cognitive, Psychological, Ethical.
