There is no doubt that in the twenty-first century we must ask for a lot. When we look at the field of education, we find that the role of the teacher or trainer is much different than it should be, in order to prepare a generation capable of dealing with globalization and the new challenges of knowledge and science in facing the challenges of the future.
