Introduction
In the current world,
technology in schools is becoming predominant. It has been recognized by the
educators who claim that it is important to embrace the use of technological
devices in classrooms since it encourages students to learn many things. Learners
also describe the use of technology for learning as fun and interesting thus
giving them an opportunity to conduct further research. Therefore, the use of
technology for learning is significant in that it provides the students with
technical and guidance skills that they require to be successful in their
future endeavors. This paper hence strives to discuss how technology can
stimulate learning.
Methods
and Results
There are various
technological devices that stimulate learning in schools. For instance, the use
of computers gives learners immediate feedback which encourages them to learn
new concepts. They also get to finish their homework on time with the use of
the computers (Lajoie et al. 35).
In this case, students spend most of their free time researching on what has
been taught by the teacher. The computers also encourage the learners to
strengthen their skills in letters with the typing activities. It, therefore,
gives them an opportunity of gaining more knowledge which makes the students
build positive approach towards the various subjects.
Tablets are also
technological tools that are motivates learning in the classrooms. Currently,
they are more accessible and plays an important role in enriching and
encouraging learning. Through it, learners get to enjoy some of the options
like having programs for following words in the process of reading a passage
and highlighting words that they do not know. The students, therefore, get to
be familiar with new vocabularies and complex terms each time they engage in
reading exercises. Tablets similarly motivate learning by giving students an
opportunity to utilize a variety of learning video programs and games which
helps illustrate their thoughts. Through it, the students' confidence and
creativity are build which encourages them to learn more complex terms on
different topics.
