The papers contained in the presented volume, which is a continuation of the publication Education, Culture, and Technologies. Vol. 1, presents views of young researchers, humanists, and artists on education and culture in the context of the digital world and media, that is, from the perspective of cyberculture.

This information might be very convincing and highly popular but being persuasive and widespread does not equal being true or right. Therefore, analytical and critical skills are needed to maneuver the turbulent waters of digital world.
