THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY AND ITS ADVANTAGES

IN ONLINE EDUCATION

Technology has been an integral part of sustaining and transforming society for many years, and
so its infusion with education was inevitable. Both accessibility and teaching methods are being
transformed by technology in different ways. Nsouli recognises that some of the benefits of this
and the use of technology include:

Improved Inclusion And Personalisation

Being able to learn remotely has made education more widely accessible for everyone.
Online education allows people who work full-time to further their learning remotely in their
own time, children who don't suit traditional schooling can work at their own pace in a safe
environment, and people who live an alternative lifestyle due to illness or travel can receive an
education.
Nsouli states, "with the improved use of technology in classrooms, teachers are able to focus on
personalised learning, which can be of huge help to some individuals."

Technology has made it possible to gain qualifications solely online and receive excellent
education remotely through institutes that offer online courses. That means that it doesn't matter
where you live; you can still take advantage of online education.
Advanced Accessibility
Online education technologies allow access to the latest and best information available.
Printed materials, such as textbooks, can become outdated quickly with obsolete information,
which then takes a long time to update. Using online information means your education sources
are always relevant and updated, and they can be instantly integrated into the learning process.

Technology is able to provide students with access to large amounts of online resources
and information. This allows and encourages them to carry out their own research and therefore
become more independent. Technology can also simplify learning by making complex concepts
more digestible for different learning styles, for example, through instructional videos and audio
streams. Technology is helpful in holding attention which allows students to better absorb
information.
