The prevalence of technology affects the society in positive ways including education. Nowadays, students not only take help from computers but also use the internet for research while teachers use technology to enhance their lessons.
RESEARCH :
If the school's library is outdated and lacks the selection of books, students use the internet and digital encyclopedias to obtain the research they need. Many schools use software to help students do their research.
GLOBALIZATION :
Students can even meet the schools in different parts of the state, country or world through video conferencing without leaving the classroom. Some sites are used to learn foreign languages and also connect to teachers from other countries.
EDUCATIONAL GAMES:
Teachers expose children to computers through educational games in younger grades which help them learn the basics of spelling, counting and other early educational lessons through computer games that make learning fun.
DISTANCE EDUCATION:
In past, students use to enroll in correspondence courses at community colleges and universities which provided them documents in the mail. This process was very long and complicated. But now, students keep themselves updated via the internet.
WEB SEMINARS:
Every school does not have the resources and budget to send its students on seminars due to which their education may suffer. But now technology helps them to deal with the problem.
