Short Discussion:

The ways that instruction, students, and teachers have changed between then and today
demonstrate how education has changed. Teachers used to be the primary source of knowledge,
using antiquated techniques and scant technological resources. Students had little access to
information and were passive learners. Memorization and following prescribed curriculum were
the main goals of instruction. Educators are transforming into facilitators, utilizing technology
and promoting active learning among students, emphasizing problem-solving and critical
thinking, and focusing on application over memorizing. The integration of technology in
education has transformed it into a more engaging and meaningful experience for both teachers
and students, catering to individual needs and interests. Overall, these advancements have
transformed education into a more engaging and meaningful experience for both teachers and
students.
