Technology plays an indispensable and inevitable part in our every second of our lives. Days without a gadget is unimaginable. Education sector is also supported by technology either directly or indirectly. Even if no gadgets are used in a class the technology is playing its role as a silent spectator (Students reaching class by bicycle/auto/etc, the books printed in a press and so on).
In my schooling days I had the conventional talk & chalk method of learning, In college I used over head projector, LCD projector, laptop, MS office etc
Hence Technology can be attributed to the shadow of Education (really?)
Does One swallow makes a summer?
Technology as such can't bring in a Herculean change in education sector as it has other prominent factors (like community participation, teacher's openness, funds available, etc) supporting the technology as a bank of the river. One should accept and welcome the changes. Should use it and appreciate it. I should not say something will not work as I don't know about it (it is foolish!)
It is a well accepted notion that technology supports educational sector. Then comes the question How much is too much? What extent should we expose the child to technology.
The issue of digital divide also a stumbling block to equity in education. Which technology can be used to bridge the digital divide?
