Abstract

Educational technology has become an essential part of modern education, transforming the way students learn and teachers teach. This paper examines the impact of educational technology on student learning by reviewing relevant literature on the topic. It highlights the benefits of using educational technology, including increased engagement, improved motivation, and enhanced collaboration. However, it also acknowledges potential challenges, such as the need for proper training and support, as well as the risk of technology becoming a distraction rather than a tool for learning. The integration of technology in education has brought about significant changes in the learning and teaching process. This research paper explores the impact of educational technology on students’ academic achievement and the teaching process. The paper also examines the various educational technologies available and their benefits. Additionally, the challenges associated with integrating technology into education and the strategies to overcome them are discussed. The paper concludes that educational technology can enhance learning and teaching by providing students with new ways of learning and allowing teachers to customize their teaching approaches.
