The reality of the old school is getting more and more distant from the current students. In this sense, it is essential to think about placing the school within an advanced technology process, placing the school within the world, placing itself within this contemporary context, especially within the current context, within the demands, the agenda of the world, although we know that the difficulties exist and we have many different realities in Brazil. In this sense, we seek to draw an overview of what this Education 4.0 would be, what its precepts, its socio-historical context of production, in order to weave reflections on the topic discussed here and so that it can serve as a theoretical-analytical mapping for understanding and future research on the topic.
