How Technology is going to affect students? How are they going to be learning ?

Technology has become a part of our daily life. Seriouly speaking, none of us are going to be respected if we are outdated on technology. Well, although i'm still a toddler in this marvellous era, i am very much eager to get through it and learn all the colourful boosts in technology. Especially for those teachers and students nowadays, technology plays an extreme role. The school system is also aware of the importance; investing millions on technology use and rapidly transforming into the world of technology. Previously teachers and students struggled hard with the use of chalks and blackboards which affected their heatlh...! some of them even fear to use chalks! NOW..all those barriers have come to a fullstop. Currently, the government and all schools are keen in using white boards, interactive boards, smart boards, LCD's and OHP's. The use of these sophisticated facilities is mushrooming all around the country and world. Students are too enthusiastic to explore those, i would say 'valuable assets' to scaffold their learning as they have tasted the spices in technology. Lets talk about the libraries in schools and universities...The manual system of finding books which wasted the time of students has came to a solution. Now, by just typing the title of the books, students are able to identify the right place of the book. This has easify their life in libraries. In addition, in my view, students nowadays enjoy technology since it is always ready with delicious dishes in it. Everything and anything is there for us in technology. It is overwhelmed with current issues, efficient news, general knowledge and more and more. Thus, students are turning to be more confident and independent because they are always supported by technology. Tremendous animations, power points, colourful photos and video clips have added the interest of students in exploring it. Eventually, this encourage and motivate them to learn more. Internet is becoming the town square for the global village of tomorrow. ~Bill Gates.As me, the integration of techno in learning is going to bring a grand success soon! People often argue of the cons of techno....Ehm, you know wherever there is a discovery there will be some groups to discrimate, right? So, why must we worry..Frankly speaking, it is all in our hand and mind of using technology. If you make good use of it, then its beneficial, if not, it might turn the other way around. It's just as simple as that..So, parennts and teachers should make sure students do not get out of the track. In coming times, all learning is going to be taken place through technology. So, lets wait and see how the world is going to be in some times..I would guarantee there is going to be a great...CHANGE!
