It is the 21st century, and the technology today can change your brain, literally, and interpret your dreams. And in the process of changing everything that came its way, it <a href=\"https:\/\/internationalschooling.org\/blog\/virtual-homeschooling-pros-and-cons\/\">revolutionized education<\/a>. And we are glad we lived to see it do so, and beautifully.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back, we\u2019re listing five ways in which tech absolutely altered education.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>1. What\u2019s the latest? <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Information is no longer limited to books. Yes, books still hold water, but not as much as the Internet. Education aided by technology has crossed all boundaries of time and space. New information today can become obsolete tomorrow. There\u2019s always something latest happening somewhere across the globe.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>2. Read from across the globe <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>It was in 1971 that Michael Hart invented<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/books\/2001\/dec\/19\/ebooks\"> eBooks<\/a>. And oh the doors that opened. Students no longer just had memberships to school, university or local libraries, but their libraries expanded worldwide. Google\u2019s library project and Amazon\u2019s Kindle are some of the best examples of bringing books from across the globe to the palms of students.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>3.<\/strong> <strong>I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Till some years ago, teachers could only tell students how physics works. But now, thanks to multimedia, they can not only show students how motion, acceleration, gravity and mass work together, but make them play games to actually understand the concepts.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>4.<\/strong> <strong>No sense of time and space<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Whoever thought education can only take place in classrooms? The innovation of virtual schools has broken all conformity of traditional schooling. Schooling now happens in parks, bedrooms, in airplanes; wherever and whenever the pupil wants to learn and also gets a degree with the same. No kidding.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>5.<\/strong> <strong>Tell me more! <\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Technology, in the form of mobile applications and internet has come to the rescue of students who want to read more and more about a particular subject. Schools cannot help a child in gaining in-depth knowledge of specific topics. But the Internet can. Children today can be found exploring the skies and discovering stars. Technology, we love you.<\/p>\n<p>The increase in digital technology also corresponds to the increased use of technology in both offline and <a href=\"https:\/\/internationalschooling.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual classrooms<\/a>. Technology has enhanced the future of learning and has enabled students and teachers from across the globe to connect and work together for the common love of learning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember when Internet meant an alien spaceship-like sound of the dial-up connection and everybody loved technology for adding colors to our television sets?
