At the same time, the role of the elements of these " golden triangles " – named this way by Hinzen H. in the paper " Standards and Demandings in Adult Education " (coord. oitu, 2006) – will be modified, and each of them will become a priority eventually. This study will show the used and useful paths in the building process of individual and of communities. From the beginning, we have to understand that individuals have many roles to accomplish along the entire life cycle, and for this reason, they need to adjust to the society's new requests. One of the challenges in the present – given the new trends in politics, economy, education and social fields – is that citizens must prove they are prepared for the questions of another world, a world with different expectations. For this new world, we also need more innovation in knowledge. By linking academic needs and resources to the community needs and resources, universities can foster relevant, mutually beneficial engagement initiatives that demonstrate a shared responsibility of social and civic engagement for our students, our university, and our community. As we were stating earlier, the individual is continually adjusting and, at the same time, university has the role of supporting individuals adjust to the community. In a re

To pass through a stage of adult education means to relate to what is new, but also valuable and able to be used in different contexts. The new technologies become an important dimension in education to all its levels, giving us the opportunity to bring it closer to our usual support. We will discuss in this paper about the selection of what can become useful, and also about the dimensions of integration the new technologies in educational fields. Our paper is focusing on adult's responsibility for technology use in a correct and efficient way by digital natives.

Textbooks roles differ, depending on the perspective of each. For teachers, textbooks are important tools in planning and conducting lessons. For producers, the purpose is that textbooks are adopted by teachers and for parents to be a good preparation for exams. For authorities, textbooks represents coverage of public policy (Reints, 2015)1. Because the teacher plays a crucial role in the process of learning, they should know how their textbooks help or block this process.

Adopting digital school textbook is based by previous approaches. For example, in Ireland, digital textbooks are used since last year, instead of their paper copies. This decision was taken after a successful pilot study conducted in many schools selected by the company Educational of Ireland. While in Ireland, the digital textbook system was adopted only at secondary level, United States of America believes that until 2017 every children at any level, will use digital textbooks, after the two years pilot study that was successfully concluded. The textbook is one of the work tools for students, the most important, which reflects the structure and detailing systematic curriculum themes, units of study, evaluation forms for each subject and for each class. From the perspective of learning activities, the textbook has three main functions: information, structuring the learning function, learning function guide 1. The textbook contains information that are processed and integrated by teaching principles, psychological and praxiological. It is an important instrument of the student's work and, therefore, in addition to information it should contain working methods or methodologies, showedor logical infused intodidactic exposure 2. The textbook – way of communication The textbook reconstructs the route from one generation to another, following a trail of history, the values, the principles, the states of mind and feelings. Generations become less connected by messengers expressing the past of a stage and the establishment of another. Relationship is turning around, retaining only the functions for which it was created. Medium is the message 3 , so the intermediate, the carrying of the message itself is the message and that teachers had this in mind 4. Textbook is a networking medium where information from past and future trading, reflecting expectations of students, especially of the educational policy makers, of parents and from the emerging society. The rhythm of development and the revolution of mediums brings gaps between projections of a generation and the reality of it – induced by unpredictable conditions of accomplishment. Teachers could not foresee the changes and students don't find necessary consistency of the process entrusted to adults-experiencing unimaginable ways of life in the time of their formation. This approach to education crosses the intersection of the three forces. Student's ability to identify with others in a community of learning, the student's ability to construct knowledge and to confirm their meaning and learning. Online social networks such
