The most important consequences, which the development of computers has caused in the sphere of education and upbringing of children, were presented in the herewith work. The results of deliberations conducted here do not instil optimism. Computers which originally served people as work tools, in the course of time also began to fulfil different functions. The machine which does not seem to be dangerous, is able to make irreversible changes in the physical and psychical health and influence destructively a man’s whole life. The practice shows that children easily surrender to bad influences of computers, and parents mostly do not perceive this fact. Young people sit before the screens of laptops and PCs willingly, mainly because of entertainment which they deliver them. They see in these devices toys which introduce a lot of emotions and satisfy their relaxing needs. These toys in children’s hands, left without supervision, become dangerous. Computer games cause most damage to children. By means of depraved content they trigger bad tendencies in human nature and lead one down the wrong path. Besides, they distort our view of the world and show bad behaviour patterns. It creates danger that the child will shape his habits for good in the direction which leads to many disasters. Pedagogues have to take these threats into consideration when they plan to work with their pupils with the use of the multimedia methods of display. It seems to be an unusually difficult task to lead a child in such a way that he himself would want to use a computer for useful aims. The access limitation to bad content becomes an urgent need in the context of quoted problems. Actions taken so far were not successful and lots of youth are still exposed to their influence. The main cause here is adults’ ignorance of consequences of the overuse of the Internet and bad computer games by their children because effects are not spectacular, but kept hidden away within child’s soul and surface after long time. The traditional forms of education cannot be replaced with modern technologies, but a computer used suitably is very helpful in education and can improve teaching efficiency in many fields. However, there have to be ensured suitable conditions and help from the tutors. The children whose parents treat the educational duty responsibly and establish principles for the wise use of computers by their children, gain a lot thanks to it. Computerisation leads, on the one hand, lots of young people to corruption of their minds, but on the other hand, it raises to a higher level of the civilization development those who can use the modern work tools in the appropriate way.

In this paper we comment on the opinions of great philosophers from various epochs on the relationship between computers and the human mind. We ponder over whether we might be able to gain an understanding of the human mind and a perception of the world from the scientific point of view. We focus on the relationship between these two issues.

Niniejszy artykuł prezentuje uwagi, jakie na temat wpływu nowoczesnych technologii na współczesne społeczeństwa, w tym przede wszystkim na świat Zachodu, sformułował polski filozof Henryk Skolimowski. Krytykując negatywne aspekty gwałtownego rozwoju technologii, zwraca on uwagę na tak niebezpieczne dla człowieka zjawiska, jak konsumpcjonizm czy związane z nim zanieczyszczenie środowiska naturalnego. Twierdzi również, że nowoczesne technologie, w szczególności zaś komputery i roboty, wyręczając człowieka w podejmowaniu coraz większej ilości prac, zmniejszają jego zdolność decyzyjną, a tym samym negatywnie odbijają się na ludzkiej wolności

This paper presents the comments of the Polish philosopher, Henryk Skolimowski, on the negative aspects of technology. He is an opponent of scientific and technical civilization. He sees the negative sides of this civilization. He considers such phenomena as consumerism and pollution to be detrimental to the mankind. He also claims that computers and modern technology limit human freedom. New technologies, which keep developing at a very fast pace, tend to limit our decision-making capabilities

The article talks about the digital competence of students of Polish Philology in the context of the dynamic development of technologies and the creation of the Information Society. The author presents the results of studies conducted in the years 2010-2016 on a group of 677 students who participated in a course „Scientific and Digital Education” held at the Faculty of Polish and Classical Philology at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. The results of the research represent the student’s profile that has a significant gap in possessed and obtained, during previous stages of education, knowledge in the digital information technology, communication and the use of the Internet. As the research shows an average student has also inadequate skills in working with electronic documents, office tools and the Internet.

W artykule podjęty zostaje temat kompetencji informatycznych studentów Filologii Polskiej w kontekście dynamicznego rozwoju technologii i tworzenia się społeczeństwa informacyjnego. Zaprezentowane zostały wyniki badań przeprowadzonych w latach 2010-2016 grupie 677 studentów przedmiotu „Edukacja naukowo-informatyczna” prowadzonego na Wydziale Filologii Polskiej i Klasycznej Uniwersytetu im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu. Wyniki badań prezentują profil studenta, który posiada istotne braki zarówno w posiadanej i uzyskanej w poprzednich etapach edukacji, wiedzy dotyczącej technologii informatycznych, komunikacji i Internetu, jak też niewystarczające umiejętności w zakresie pracy z dokumentami elektronicznymi, narzędziami biurowymi i internetowymi.
