Has technology changed education?

Nowadays, the world has faced a digital revolution making information accessible to a high percentage of the worldwide population. That is why acceptance and implementation are significant and represent a challenge in education.

In many cases, the lack of training of professors in the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) has affected the class experience. Therefore, to avoid being replaced, they are under pressure to make the correct use of new technologies. A possible solution is to take into consideration implementing it when planning, teaching, and evaluating, since the design of activities based on electronic tools can help accelerate the adaptation process.

However, even when the online classroom can bring some advantages in learning, there is still a social rejection that is containing the potential of ICT. In some cases, there has been an incorrect approach to the use of these devices in the educational system. Not enough importance is given to these new technological tools when implementing them and when it comes to teaching and learning. As educators, we must know that the student access to information and devices increases every day, and also the potential for what they can achieve. That is why some institutions have chosen to use this type of resource.

The implementation of new technologies in the classroom and the educational system seeks to maintain a correct line of learning and support for students, expanding autonomy and developing more critical thinking in each student that can serve them in their daily life. It is not a secret that the world changes and evolves every day, so you must always have an open mind and ready for new changes. As shown in the video, you need to think, "How are you going to shape the classroom of tomorrow?"
