The document discusses the importance of technology in education. It outlines 5 key benefits of educational technology: 1) It prepares students for a technology-focused future, 2) Makes learning more engaging and interactive, 3) Improves students' digital skills, 4) Enables increased collaboration, and 5) Reduces the physical materials students need to carry. It also provides examples of how technology benefits both students and teachers in conducting research, presenting information, and enhancing lessons. Overall, the document argues that technology is a fundamental part of a well-rounded education that prepares students for the modern world.

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.

3.  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.

4. The use of technologyin 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 children
For children, computer technology has provided an indescribable wealth of resources,
information and knowledge; since the introduction of the internet, students are now able
to access information on whatever subject they want, wherever they want. Resources
include journals, articles, e-books, practice tests and examinations, model answers and
research findings. Research has also suggested that computer technology has helped
students 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 in
the 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.

5.  Practical improvements
Computer 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. Additional
changes such as submission of work via email and responding to enquiries online save time and
energy.
 Media technology
In 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 sophisticated
forms of communication technology. Digital radio and television allow students to access a wealth of
different channels which cover a vast range of different subjects including languages, science, history
and 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 learning
capacity and pursue their interests. Educational programmers and podcasts are now widely available
to download to your computer or MP3 player; this makes education more modern and multi-faceted.
 Scientific technology
Science 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 of
books, a visible or tangible reality. Technology undoubtedly makes the learning process more
interactive and therefore more interesting and memorable. Research has also shown a positive
correlation between computer technology and better results in scientific subjects. Technology in
constantly evolving which means that we are able to understand more; this is also true in schools
where students are able to access the newest technology to explore new concepts and ideas.

7.  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 have
to reeducate yourself about how to do things in new and different ways -- like how to turn
the 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 or
read 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 use
technology to plot your driving route to Disney World, complete with turn-by-turn verbal
instructions. If driving is too much of a hassle, you can investigate the best airline deals and
accommodations with a click of your trusty mouse. And these are just a few of the more
straightforward things technology can do to make your life easier. You may be concerned
about the collateral damage caused by technology, like loss of privacy, but like a rushing
tide, technological advancements are always coming -- and they're coming fast. From the
development of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) to nanotechnology that may make
it possible to cure a disease using microscopic machines that operate like mini-medics inside
the human body, technology impacts so many areas of modern life that it's impossible to
ignore. Using it as a teaching tool and also making it a topic of study in schools is an
important feature of a comprehensive, broad-based education. Like reading, writing and
math, technology is fundamental.

8. 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.
