Technology in education

Technology in education is not new: from the introduction of pen and paper to overhead projectors and learning management systems, each generation has integrated new tools into teaching and learning.

What matters is not the novelty of the technology, but how it’s used. In other words, the impact of technology on learning depends entirely on how it’s designed and how it's designed into educational experiences. That's why educational design is the foundation for ensuring that technology supports pedagogy rather than driving it.
