The Impact of Technology on learning outcome

Technology has had a significant impact on learning outcomes. With the advent of digital devices

and the internet, students have access to a vast array of educational resources. This has enabled

them to learn in a more engaging and interactive way, which has led to improved learning

outcomes. Technology has made it possible for students to collaborate and communicate with

their peers and teachers in real-time, regardless of distance. This has fostered a more

collaborative learning environment that encourages students to share their ideas and learn from

each other. Overall, technology has revolutionized the way we learn and has made education

more accessible, engaging, and effective, In this research we’re gonna discuss the impact of

technology on learning?

Technology in the classroom holds out the enormous potential of facilitating personalized,

mastery-based learning, freeing up teacher time, and giving students the digital skills they'll need

for professions in the twenty-first century. Controlled pilot studies have proven that

individualized blended learning significantly improves student results.1 Education technology

has emerged as a lifeline for the continuance of learning in this era of school closures and remote

study.

the 2018 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), published in December 2019

by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

Interpretivism

The OECD utilises PISA to test 15-year-olds worldwide on maths, reading, and science every

three years. These assessments are particularly effective because they ask kids, teachers, parents,

and principals a number of questions about their attitudes, behaviours, and resources in addition

to looking at the numbers. Information and communications technology (ICT) survey questions

that are optional for students ask explicitly on using technology in the classroom, for homework,

and in general.

The ICT survey was completed by more than 340,000 students in 51 countries in 2018, giving a

wealth of data for examining important queries about technology use in classrooms. How much

technology is utilised in classrooms? Which technological advancements are improving student

outcomes? How much time should I spend using my devices at a time?

Five key findings from the latest results help answer these questions and suggest potential links

between technology and student outcomes:

 The type of device matters—some are associated with worse student outcomes.

 Geography matters—technology is associated with higher student outcomes in the United

States than in other regions.

 Who is using the technology matters—technology in the hands of teachers is associated

with higher scores than technology in the hands of students.

 Intensity matters—students who use technology intensely or not at all perform better than

those with moderate use.

 A school system’s current performance level matters—technology is associated with

worse results in lower-performing school systems.

This analysis covers only one source of data, and it should be interpreted with care

alongside other relevant studies. Nonetheless, the 2018 PISA results suggest that systems

aiming to improve student outcomes should take a more nuanced and cautious approach

to deploying technology once students return to the classroom . The type of device

matters The evidence suggests that some devices impact outcomes more than others .

Controlling for student socioeconomic status, school type, and location, using data

projectors and internet-connected computers in the classroom correlates with nearly a

grade-level-better performance on the PISA assessment (assuming approximately 40

 PISA points to every grade level). On the other hand, students who use laptops and

tablets in the classroom have worse results than those who do not. For laptops, the impact

of technology varies by subject; students who use laptops score five points lower on the

PISA math assessment, but the impact on science and reading scores is not statistically

significant. For tablets, the picture is clearer—in every subject, students who use tablets

in the classroom perform a half-grade level worse than those who do not. Some

technologies are more neutral. At the global level, there is no statistically significant

difference between students who use desktop computers and interactive whiteboards in

the classroom and those who do not . This study is however limited by the quantitative

method it employed because rich and more in-depth findings could be gathered if

supported by a qualitative approach.

Issues in Evaluating Technology Impact on Teaching and Learning

Evaluating technology's impact on teaching and learning requires a broad range of issues which

are often undermined when ICT impact research is being carried out. Thus, the task in this part

of the article is to carefully consider some of them and make recommendations for further

research on technology's impact on teaching and learning. The impact of ICT in education is

often difficult to establish especially when other factors that can affect achievement are isolated.

Critical to evaluating ICT impact on teaching and learning are issues such as: the environment in
which teaching and learning will take place, the status of technology integration in the learning

environment, the students and teachers’ technology proficiencies, their disposition towards

technology, access to technology and training facilities, teachers’ teaching methodology, and

students’ learning approach. Researchers must focus on each of these issues to determine if the

adoption of technology in teaching and learning produces the desired and maximum impact

Evaluating both lecturers’ and students’ perceptions in this context has thus confirmed that they

believe technology has positive effects on their teaching and learning. While education

technology is generally viewed as a threat, and it does have limitations, incorporating it into your

classroom practices provides students with a new way to better interact and engage with course

material.

Relation between Technology and learning outcome

Modern technology has completely transformed the educational system. The internetenabled

classrooms have made education available to anyone who wants to learn anywhere in the world,

at any time, on any subject. In contrast to the traditional face-to-face classrooms, which have a

limited capacity of students, virtual classrooms can accommodate any number of students. And,

when it comes to learning, there is an infinite amount of information available for free or at a

reasonable cost. There’s no denying that we’re becoming a more technologically oriented

society. Understanding how to use technology, from digital menus to self-driving cars, helps

prepare students for the future. Early learning of technology skills can help students to grow in

their careers and personal lives. Therefore, whether technology will prevail over traditional

learning or not, it is very beneficial for students to be up-to-date with the latest educational

methods
Conclusion

Thanks to the use of technology tools, education is no longer restricted to the four walls of your

classroom. The internet and social media do not have to be a source of distraction. After finding

out how technology helps students learn, as a teacher, you can integrate it into lesson plans and

help both yourself and students to create improved learning outcomes.
