The document discusses the role of technology in education. It begins by introducing educational technology and some key technological devices used, such as computers, the internet, e-books, virtual classes, and audio books. Both the positive and negative impacts of these technologies on education are then examined. Some benefits include improved engagement, knowledge retention, and opportunities for online learning. However, risks also exist such as excessive spending, plagiarism, and disconnecting learners from the real world. The document concludes that while technology enhances education when used properly, its negative aspects must be addressed to maximize benefits and minimize drawbacks.

will adversely impact over 290 million students across 22
countries.
 Remote learning increasingly relies on the reliable power
supply and ubiquitous internet connectivity which might be a
far-fetched thing for tier 2 and tier 3 cities.
 Another challenge is that e-learning is likely to witness a high
rate of drop-outs due to lack of atmosphere for studying.
Impact of Covid-19
on Technology and education

21. Technology has a positive impact on education and at the same
time may also pose negative effects.
Whenever there is light, there is a shadow. Technology can
make us fly higher and higher in the sky but at the same time it
can even ruin our life with its negative features. Technology can
enhance our knowledge at the same time it can even lower our
grade in education.
Teachers and students should take advantage of this in the
good light and eliminate the drawbacks which are pulling back
many of students as well as schools from achieving excellence.
It is, thus, time for every country to introduce a more
technologically equipped education sector in the future.
