In his latest book Cyberillnesses, a psychiatrist and an expert on human brain issues and problems connected with the media overload, prof. Manfred Spitzer emphasizes facts which are loudly and often expressed nowadays: that digital information technology is ubiquitous in our society. Smartphones have been gaining popular rapidly in the recent five years and the range of use of digital information technologies has grown so drastically because a smartphone is constantly by our side – always at hand. Immersion that is being completely absorbed by the digital world has increased drastically causing virtualization of the man and the society. The man is more and more often becoming a hybrid of reality and virtuality. The process is accelerating and getting more extreme, mostly because of economic reasons. Questions on physi-cal health and sanity often remain unanswered. Therefore, with this article I would like mobile pedagogical bodies to apply greater care to the real man who will care more about real relations and real personality which, being strong and healthy will of course undergo mediatization process-es, it is unlikely that we will avoid it, but then we may hope for a healthy, strong and wise real-virtual personality and society.Downloads
