Ed-Tech: Pros and Cons with Future Aspects

Abstract

Many people's cheeks light up when they hear the word technology, especially the younger age. Technology has an impact on how people interact, learn, and think. It contributes to society and influences how individuals interact on a daily basis. In today's world, technology plays a critical role. It has both beneficial and bad repercussions on the planet, as well as a direct impact on people's lives. We live in a time where technical advancements are commonplace. Technology has had a significant influence on our lives in a variety of ways. It should come as no surprise that technology has made and continues to make significant inroads into the educational profession. This is especially true for the tech-savvy generation.

However, technology has altered the way education is delivered today.Today's students, parents, and educators have access to a wide range of learning resources. A massive collection of electronic material is available on the World Wide Web (books, audio, videos, images, notes)
