Technology In Education Essay

1006 Words5 Pages

Technology in education at universities is one of the most successful way, which is leading to more appropriate education.

Whether we like it or not, technology is here, and here to stay, so it is imperative that students are allowed to use it freely in the classroom, “78 percent of students believe the internet helps them with school work” (Lenhart, et. al.) indicating that students are not simply using the internet for their personal pleasure, they are using it to better themselves in their education.
