Abstract

This paper reflects on the place that George Siemens gives to the human being in the conception of knowledge he expounds in his early works. The objective was to analyze the place of the human being in this conception. The idea defended is that the conception of knowledge that Siemens expounds in his early works does not suppress the human being but relegates them to lower levels of importance. One achievement of this research is having captured the overvaluation of some results of human activity above the human being; the greatest result is to note that we must be alert to the subtlety of dehumanization. Among the conclusions is that because of the fundamental importance of technology in Siemens' conception of knowledge, it can be considered a technological conception of knowledge.
