Technology advancing Education

Technology continues to develop everyday and improve every aspect of our society. Compared to the lifestyle simply a decade ago, we live in a very convenient and advanced society with luxuries and comforts brought to us by the advancement of technology. One of the biggest improvement that I find most convenient and useful is the advancement in education. The environment in class in schools have changed drastically with new innovations that help with presenting and sharing information.

With technology continuing to help develop education, new innovations such as education apps are appearing that help kids learn new concepts before they are taught in school. Kids are beginning to enjoy the applications on smartphones and computers that exposes them to learnings in a fun medium.

Willam Liaw blogged about this topic in his post ‘Another Way to Learn?’. I agree with his point that as these applications continue to double in the app world, kids will have a larger selection to the type of education they can learn before hand. And as kids enjoy playing these educational games, they absorb more information and will develop their thinking faster. This generation should take advantage of this education which we didn’t have.
