We are transhumans; transitory people that exist in a luminal phase, waiting for a transfer to the posthuman world. Our children do not need education; it is cyborgization that ensures their development. This is the idea of transhumanistic philosophy, a thoroughly (non-/anti-)pedagogic idea. In this paper, I will present basic transhumanism ideas and stress the criticism on education created within this philosophy. This text is neither a systematic study on transhumanism nor a pedagogical analysis. It is merely an attempt at showing teachers how education can be deprecated in modern philosophies that are technologically-oriented.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesscyborgizationtranshumanismposthumanfuture of educationtechnological singularitycyborgsposthuman worldtranshumanistic philosophyTranshumanism and the idea of education in the world of cyborgsRozdział z książki
