Technology has become a crucial aspect of human life, with every field using it to reduce repetitive work and enhance productivity. Education, too, has been impacted in significant ways.

Presentation: Technology has introduced smart boards, graphics, and other tools that make presenting educational content easier. For students, concepts are easier to understand through animations, presentations, and other visual aids. It is especially useful in kindergarten, making education more interesting and engaging.

Accessibility: With the internet, students can access a variety of courses from all over the world, eliminating the barrier of geographical distance. Now, students can easily access millions of books and lectures through their smartphones.

Affordability: The rise of the internet and Ed-Tech companies has increased competition, reducing the cost of education for students. Many resources are free and easily accessible, helping students improve their academic performance.

Easy Analysis: Software is now available to help teachers track student progress. Artificial intelligence has made research easier than ever before. Students can also use technology to enhance their own performance.

Negative Impacts:

Creates Confusion: The abundance of resources can make it difficult for students to select the most useful ones. Free resources, in particular, are often scattered, requiring students to first compile necessary information according to their needs.

Over-reliance on Technology‎: Excessive dependence on technology can reduce students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as they might rely more on animations, graphics, or quick answers from the web rather than working through problems themselves.

Reduced Social Interaction: Online learning environments can diminish face-to-face interaction, which is crucial for developing communication skills, teamwork, and other social skills.

Balancing technology with traditional methods can create a more effective and inclusive educational experience for students.
