Technology in the field of education can be a

powerful tool. The Importance Of Technology

In Education Info graphic presents 5 benefits

of technology in education:

Future Oriented: The future is all about

technology and multi-screening. Education can’t

lag behind.

Learning Becomes Interesting: It engages and

challenges students with brand new and

interactive methods.

Improves Skills: digital learning,

communication, collaboration, building teams,

mobile learning, listening, planning, valuing

diversity, problem solving, self direction, global

awareness, social, presentations.

Increases Collaboration: Students can work

and collaborate with people in other

locations. Distance learners can join online

communities.Reduces Weight: Instead of carrying lots of

books, students just carry a laptop, a tablet or a

mouse which contain all their books and projects.

TECHNOLOGY is a big help for the students, especially in researching their assignments.

TECHNOLOGY makes the students life easier.

TECHNOLOGY is useful to the students to engage new ideas and explore new things.

TECHNOLOGY is a big part of the students in their daily life.

TECHNOLOGY is important to the students in developing their critical thinking.

TECHNOLOGY allows the students to be more creative in doing document files.

TECHNOLOGY helps the students developing new skills and grasping an understanding of how things work.

TECHNOLOGY can provide students with a wealth of information and knowledge.

The use of technology in schools Technology is an increasingly important aspect of modern school life and has

dramatically changed the way teachers and students go about their daily activities.

“Computer technology”

For childrenFor children, computer technology has provided an indescribable wealth of resources,

information and knowledge; since the introduction of the internet, students are now ableto access information on whatever subject they want, wherever they want. Resourcesinclude journals, articles, e-books, practice tests and examinations, model answers andresearch findings. Research has also suggested that computer technology has helpedstudents to improve their grades in other subjects, most notably science. Practically,students can work much faster using a computer which enables them to do more study inthe same period of time.

For staff

Computer technology has enabled teachers to make their lessons more interactive and therefore more interesting and rewarding; this method has also been shown to improve pupil performance as lessons are more memorable and therefore students are able to retain information more effectively. Teachers, like students, can also find a whole host of resources on the internet which can provide inspiration and advice for classes; teachers are also able to recommend good resources to student to further encourage and stimulate their learning.

Practical improvementsComputer technology has enabled systems of obtaining and recording information much more efficient

and effective; computer records are much harder to misplace than realms of paper records. Additionalchanges such as submission of work via email and responding to enquiries online save time andenergy.

Media technologyIn addition to computers, many schools and colleges are using new methods of technology to enhance the

learning experience; these include digital television channels, DVDs, digital radio and sophisticatedforms of communication technology. Digital radio and television allow students to access a wealth ofdifferent channels which cover a vast range of different subjects including languages, science, historyand geography to name just a few. Children are used to new technology as they have grown up with it;it is therefore undoubtedly beneficial that they have the option to use it to increase their learningcapacity and pursue their interests. Educational programmers and podcasts are now widely availableto download to your computer or MP3 player; this makes education more modern and multi-faceted.

Scientific technologyScience and technology are closely linked and often become intertwined. In schools, new technology can

help students to understand science and make ideas that were previously banished to the pages ofbooks, a visible or tangible reality. Technology undoubtedly makes the learning process moreinteractive and therefore more interesting and memorable. Research has also shown a positivecorrelation between computer technology and better results in scientific subjects. Technology inconstantly evolving which means that we are able to understand more; this is also true in schoolswhere students are able to access the newest technology to explore new concepts and ideas.

How important is technology in education?

The world is changing, and sometimes it probably seems you're in a race to catch up.The latest technology probably takes a chunk out of your yearly budget, and then you haveto reeducate yourself about how to do things in new and different ways -- like how to turnthe flat screen on and off or set the programmable timer on your HVAC system. Sure,technology is neat. It can make it easy to video conference with your associates in Tokyo orread the headlines on your tablet while Web surfing at your favorite java joint. You can bank,shop, research your medical symptoms and get free legal advice all online. You can usetechnology to plot your driving route to Disney World, complete with turn-by-turn verbalinstructions. If driving is too much of a hassle, you can investigate the best airline deals andaccommodations with a click of your trusty mouse. And these are just a few of the morestraightforward things technology can do to make your life easier. You may be concernedabout the collateral damage caused by technology, like loss of privacy, but like a rushingtide, technological advancements are always coming -- and they're coming fast. From thedevelopment of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) to nanotechnology that may makeit possible to cure a disease using microscopic machines that operate like mini-medics insidethe human body, technology impacts so many areas of modern life that it's impossible toignore. Using it as a teaching tool and also making it a topic of study in schools is animportant feature of a comprehensive, broad-based education. Like reading, writing andmath, technology is fundamental.

To end up this topic of having an importance of technology in education. I must say that technology has a big role in

students learning to improve their potential in making their own

documentation files and It helps their research works in easier and faster ways by not abusively using

it.
