This paper aims to systematize the Feenberguian theoretical framework of the Internet and its possible implications for education. The research has a theoretical nature, with a qualitative approach and a phenomenological basis, based on the contributions of Bicudo (2011), whose theoretical framework traverses the works of Feenberg (2002; 2010; 2017a; 2017b; 2019). When considering what makes sense to the subject who perceives and turns to understanding the phenomenon investigated, the following situations are observed: online teaching reduces education costs, which has been a considerable expense for states and companies; and the fear that the Internet will replace the relationship between teacher and student is not a novelty, since it only reproduces a criticism that was also made to writing – just as the latter brought new possibilities and progress for education, the Internet also seems to expand learning. If, on the one hand, the advancement and incorporation of the Internet to daily life already impose serious reflections, on the other hand, its impact on education is considerable.
