Technology Changed Learning

Technology has impacted nearly every aspect of life today, and education is mainly receiving the impact. I can say that education seems much the same as it has been for many years but with changes that were added. Back in the day, classrooms looked different than what they do today. Back then, teachers would use chalkboards and textbooks that children would be following along with. Classrooms today may look different by having laptops, tablets, and white magic boards instead of a textbook. Most students don’t even need to sit in a classroom to get the material; it will be given to them through online format. I feel that if you want to be an effective student you should be in a classroom learning with the technology that is provided, not sitting at home and just reading it because you have to.





Technology has also begun to change the roles of teachers and learner by getting so used to the new change. Being a student, I feel that I take more responsibility in my learning by using technology to gather any information that I need because all you have to do is type what you want into a search box and it is just handed to you. But as people of the society, technology is a powerful tool and can be looked on as being a positive view or negative view and it also can support education in many ways because everyone has different learning views. Honestly, as the years go by everything is going to have to go under a changing process and I feel that technology is just the first to take action.
