Teachers and students at universities today are surrounded by diverse technologies, but the average profit got from them is not very high, and in addition it presents great variability too. The effects of technology on the curriculum seem to be rather peripheral, even for the new Bologna degrees, and for most people it is not clear, at least in the case of Mathematics, how curricula could be modified to optimize learning with the help of the available technologies. In this talk these issues will be analyzed by first presenting the current situation and then advancing possible ways forward.
