The positive and negative impacts of Technology on Education
The interactive experience is provided during our learning and teaching with the technology in mobile phones, laptops, tablets, and computers. Students are learning with apps, videos, and digital books. This learning keeps them more engaged and having the opportunity to develop deeply in their area of interest, which allows them to recognize their potential. Their talent may be their future concept or profession in education.
The educational institutions take over them through training and development, and all the guidelines for all the educational fields of engineering, medicine, management, accountancy, and technology. Educational institutions have developed their skill with the latest technology. The main concept of technology is to make our learning better with creativity. Impact of mobile phones on students' life
Teachers provide them with the best way to express their
experiences to the students. Education is the most important that must be in
priority. Teachers must encourage new technology and promote interest in
the latest, technology.
Technology has developed as online teaching with
the flexibility of learning even at home. The education system has been
changing and turned off learning welcomed by the whole world. New-generation teachers have adopted new technology as per the situation.
As per our traditional method of study, teachers
report that students don’t pay attention in class. Some of the projects are not possible online. Education is not
only to give books knowledge but need to develop students' social skills.

The positive impact of technology
Several Engineers are turning toward new ideas and new
technology in the field of education. Changing profile toward creativity is the
positive impact of technology.
Technology in classrooms to enhance learning
The use of technology in the classrooms is necessary to enhance
teaching and learning, the importance of technology needs to be created
in classrooms.
The biggest problem is our daily interaction with technological
devices, which reduce attention, research intentions, and use of
applications the nothing to do with the teaching process. This technology
should be used in the class as necessary as the writing use technology.
There are many ways of using technology in a classroom like a
projector screen, connected laptops and tablets with an internet connection, mike,
sound system, cameras, CCTV, online recording, zoom, and meeting for a
combined online class. All these are the technical instruments used in the
class all these gadgets help helpful to reduce the costs for the students.
Adopting technological skills and social
skills
We have been learning from technology and reducing our intention
of solving problems and an easy way. We need to learn a kind of motivation for
better preparations that are required to learn from different sources.
Technology provides the most important concept of learning in
education. Educational qualification and personality development depend on the
quality of education.
You must know how to develop overall quality and gain the
knowledge for further development in education. We should know the knowledge
and efficiency related to academic development.
Technology provides essential information
We know that people can learn the skills in
today's world of computer science. Our technology has given us everything to
keep up with learning trends. Now the computer has solved all the problems of
learning and acquiring technology. And the skill is highly known as the best
learning.
Internet connectivity helps us to provide videos
to the students who are not able to avail of essential information. Various
higher institutions have adopted this technology. During the lockdown have
created value with the help of internet technical support. All higher
education was conducted online, and the whole world conducted education online.
Many issues occurred during the lockdown. Online teaching became an alternative mode of education. Students focused on self-efficiency in learning. Many attitudes are developed, making the changes influenced by education more learning, like having an ambitious goal of proficiency in an academic career.
Most educational institutes shifted to online
learning. The result indicates that most opted for online, however, the science
and agricultural education may not be possible to be shifted online, but the
scientific methods of farming were taught through the videos.
Technology enhances
creativity
Education institutes have become functional and
the students are on the track again. In the beginning, colleges were closed for
an indefinite period, which caused inconveniences for education.
Old lecture-based teaching was closed, and a
level of online learning took place. Online learning depends on how the online
learning will be effective for the students. The importance of teaching online
can be effective, it has been examined that even in the agriculture field
online learning was more effective.
The result of the study was important for all
educational institutions. The online mode of education was implemented and
incorporated to make learning easy. And life after lockdown stays with regular
online classes. With the uncertainty of the pandemic, social distancing was
maintained as normal.
Technology makes learning easier
The technology of learning must be more
effective and productive, and the learners will prefer to participate in online
learning. The literature has highlighted easier forms for understanding the
concept. It became easier for the weaker students, and the use of phones was
converted to learning and solving educational issues.
With the success of online technology of
learning, it was seen that only distance education systems used online
mode of education before the pandemic. We have learned that study can
be possible online with distance learning by focusing our attention on online
education in all fields of education.
Affordability of education cost
Resources have been more affordable and accessible in education
with technology. Such as tuition fees, books and prices reduced as per the need
of the school. Things have been made easier at a reduced cost which helps
the student to approach learning more with other students.
The high potential performance is being accepted without
parents' pressure, a large investment is reduced, and another side of the
technology in education is books are converted into e-Books with a reduced cost,
which is one of the major environmental problems.
Online study can reduce affordability, online classes are
cheaper than traditional classes, and the cost of books, uniforms, hostel fees,
and food expenses were reduced. New technology has reduced classes which can
now be managed by technology devices.
Even the assessment of attendance can be managed online,
students can download a record of their attendance. The record of
attendance can be taken from the previous classes.
Teaches us digital
literacy
We know that young people cannot acquire the level of skill
demanded by today. By implementing our technology as an integrated part of
education students are given an opportunity of learning trends and more help
for the student technological and digital skills, which will come into
practice after 2021.
Who doesn't have modern technology? We don't have access to
modern technology at home which reduces the social gaps. Filled with digital
literature in the field of digitally literate people.
The negative impact of technology
There are lots of positive impacts of the technologies that have been explained above. Now if we talk about the negative impact of technology, only a small part of the population has adopted technical education, and others have to be interrupted by technology, which are power supply, non-internet connectivity, or unaffordable devices.
Technology is destructing classroom and
outside
Mobile is used throughout the day and is used for social
media and video games. The biggest problem is that daily interaction with the
technical device reduces attention span and research shows that
attention spans the child from generation to generation. The teacher may
have good teaching. It should be used in class only if necessary.
Technology in students enhances control over learning, students
are learning throughout the day through the daily doges of social media, video games, and
much more learning. Our research in the classroom will help to find solutions
to the student's problems.
Lack of trained teachers
The teacher must be trained for the online classes, for
providing such examples according to the topic that needs to be displayed
online. The teacher must have the technical knowledge of using devices
properly. Learning the digital form of teaching basic knowledge of computer
technology is essential.
Trained teachers are not available in schools, management
needs to invest in teachers learning programs, and necessary devices need
to be provided in computer labs and classrooms.
Network connectivity
The unavailability of network connections in rural areas is a
common issue because education is equal for everyone but not reaching everyone
through the online education system. The poor and backward students are not
able to access online technology.
As per the overall development government schools in rural areas
are also part of society, due to poor network issues they are not able to
access the facility. The government needs to provide help to them or issue facilities in schools.
Traditional education exposure
In the traditional system of study, we need to go to school and
have a wide range of exposure to learning, we have lots of friends to
talk to, and we can share our ideas through good interaction with
teachers.
There are many challenges and excellent mediums to clear our
doubts. But for online classes, we need to keep our eyes on technology and we
must know all the technical devices.
No use in physical education
New technology is not in the field of physical education, we
must have a specific time to play with sports ground and do physical exercises
which are essential requirements of the students. Sports activities keep
students healthy and active.
Along with technology in education, physical exercises and fitness
are necessary for the physical growth of the student. That is possible if
technology is improving on the cricket grounds, or football and hockey grounds.
Modern technology is expensive
The cost of upgrading and maintaining technology is often
overlooked. The world has innovations in the field of digital technology
appearing almost every month. The powerful devices are costly and not in use
after one or two years. The cost of a mobile phone is increasing every month
and teaching and learning can't be done without technology. We depend on the
device cost of laptops or modern computers every student can not purchase such
devices.
The cost of the device was reduced after a few months. The
cost of the investment reflects on the tuition fee of the students. If it is
free online but the cost of mobile phone and internet charge affects the
student's study.
Easy to cheat in the examination
A huge problem is that teachers face cheating on exams and do
not have to check the student’s knowledge. This is a big problem with
online tests where students are searching for answers from different
resources.
Teachers sometimes don’t know how the student accesses the
answers. The institution is gardening to pass the students with good marks but
the real knowledge is not at that level. They are qualifying for exams but are
not able to study further.
Conclusion
The impact of technology in education is related
to the online system of education, which has been appreciated by educational
institutions. Technology has given us the facility of using the internet for
online classes and entertainment. Teachers might not be well-versed in creating
for the help of the students.
There are many advantages and disadvantages of
technology. Online classes can be managed from anywhere, and we can reduce
expenses and time. Students can get all lectures and study materials with the
help of technology. Technology has the option to display pictures for clear
understanding.
There are some disadvantages of technology, the
teachers are not trained with the technical knowledge of computers. School and
college management needs to provide training to the teachers.
The connectivity of the network is the most
important issue for poor and backward people. Government schools in rural
areas are always having such issues. They are not able to take the benefits of
technology. Physical fitness, games, and sports, are also essential for
students.
