Learning and Teaching with Technology
Technology plays a crucial role in increasing students' learning power through more
elaborate explanations with the help of DVDs and CDs played in educational programs.
The visual representation of data in smart classrooms has increased the understanding
and analyzing power to understand the main purpose of any topic As student can easily
learn subjects with the help of visual representation as to learn through the graphs and
charts (Sudarsana et.al., 2019, p. 012165).
Technology has also helped to solve the problem of time management which is the
major drawback faced by many teachers and takes more time to explain any topic
through textbooks. With the help of technology it automates all the process, tutor can
easily makes the notes in google keeps. Also to use the attendance tech tool helps in
taking attendance with few swipes
The following report will illustrate the importance of technology in teaching. It also
discuss the benefits in learning any topic in school in a reflective form. With the
advancement in technology, learning and teaching process has become more effective
which helps in achieving good outcomes. (Luckin, 2018).
There are many factors of technology that have helped me to overcome my problems in
learning and have improved my performance at the academic level. As by using tool to
schedule work, arrange organised information in google keeps tool. These benefits are
stated below. I was able to connect with my tutors through online classes and discussed
various topics with them during COVID as result of which I could easily focus on my
weak points and later on discussed them with my peers and tutors through physical
interaction (Kennedy and Dunn, 2018, pp.76-89).

the data is represented in visual form in google classroom making it easy to understand
and retain maths concepts. It has increased my critical thinking by taking part in test
series and problem-solving assessments provided online. As I have taken part in the
group project where we all uses the digital tool for organising information helps me a lot
to develop different decision making, team work skills.
As earlier I used to find it very hard to learn, understand and retain any new topic that
was taught verbally earlier through textbooks. It also helped me to understand more
easily the topic of through the representation data in chart and graph forms. As before I
do not understand with the theoretical concept but by practical viewing of the concept
through images and graphs helps me to clears my doubt.
In the beginning I faced difficulty in operating different tools and was completely
unaware about the different functions. As a result of which I was unable to save my
work due to which I would sometimes lose all my work due to power cut and this led to
late submissions of my project. Major difficulty which I faces in operating with
technologies because of lack of technological knowledge. From this I analysed what are
my weaknesses when it comes to operating the different tools and it seemed very
complicated at first. But with regular and continuous use of the same soft wares daily
made it easy for me understand the functions. I also discussed this problem with my
peers, and they helped me on how to use different tools of technology (Benitt, Schmidt
and Legutke, 2019). Sometimes due to poor connection of internet I was unable to
attend the online classes and missed important lectures. This led to more interaction of
mine with my tutors and peers to clear doubts.
The automation application in computers as to enable the process or system operate
automatically helped to write long passages and has increased my vocabulary. With this
I easily improve the spelling mistakes along with learning new words. Also with this, I
have gained the quality of making correct sentence structure in passages.

I didn't face any difficulty on covering any topic as the online classes were held regularly
when the pandemic was on peak. I realized that the faculty was very supporting and
cooperative as it helped me to provide the content through lectures and in my
professional growth . (Moody and et.al., 2018). With the help of electronic lectures
through software helps me a lot, I didn’t feel requirement of classroom, as by sitting at
home I was able to raise queries, thus tutor also provides me the support throughout the
online lectures. Through this report it can be concluded that technology made it very
easy to remove the workload on both the students and the tutors. I can easily make and
save notes with the help of make my notes feature and also edit it later. As to arrange
the resources by online searching that can be implemented in project, or to use
scheduling tool for arranging work.
I can now easily search and understand the meaning of any new word through the
online dictionary and further test my vocabulary skills by taking part in various English
tests and online quiz competitions.
Technology has helped to improve my understanding level by more research on any
topic with the help of different data present on Google and helped me in making projects
as I was able to make use of the content available on various sites. (Moody and et.al.,
2018).
I can easily break down the matter into short parts for easy understanding. By applying
the use of Google Docs, I can write and make changes in my stored document. It is free
tools which allows me to collaborate with other students. It is does not require any
special software. This also makes it easy for me to track the changes that other
students have made and also provide an option to go back to previous document. It
promotes teamwork through collaboration. I can also use various tools from it to
collaborate my projects and assignments. For an example for the project I can easily
examine the progress so when it required to make changes I will proceed to.
Sometimes I find it difficult to cope with the speed of classroom learning, this is because
it takes time to understand some lengthy topics, but with help of online learning I've
