Technology has significantly transformed the educational system throughout the world. Wherever the internet is available, education is available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Technology has made it convenient and affordable for people to get education. For people with weak financial households, many online platforms are available to provide education that is free of cost. Consequently, education has made it possible for people to follow their passion and pursue education in their preferred field. This has resulted in people from less privileged backgrounds having a fighting chance in the competitiveness of today&#8217;s world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The arrival of Covid-19 compelled the whole world to boost technological developments in the educational sector. The governments had to spend more on the integration of technology in education to keep their educational systems alive. Schools with fewer resources were provided with necessary equipment to bolster the virtual classroom culture.&nbsp; Even people skittish about technology were made to adapt to the rapid changes that this new era of education was bringing about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/online-classrooms-how-technology-has-revolutionized-education\/#1_Access_to_Affordable_Education\" title=\"1.&nbsp; Access to Affordable Education\">1.&nbsp; Access to Affordable Education<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/online-classrooms-how-technology-has-revolutionized-education\/#2_Access_to_Quality_Education\" title=\"2.&nbsp; Access to Quality Education\">2.&nbsp; Access to Quality Education<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/online-classrooms-how-technology-has-revolutionized-education\/#3_Access_to_Diverse_Fields_of_Education\" title=\"3.&nbsp; Access to Diverse Fields of Education\">3.&nbsp; Access to Diverse Fields of Education<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-access-to-affordable-education\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Access_to_Affordable_Education\"><\/span>1.&nbsp; Access to Affordable Education<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Technology has made it possible for the poor strata of the society to get scholarships or financial aid on online platforms. There are online programmes which include Coursera, Khan Academy and YouTube channels that offer gratuitous education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learners do not have to be physically present at the school, allowing flexibility in learning. Books and other study related materials are also provided online, curtailing the amount of money these poor kids have to spend on education. An ocean of knowledge has been created and left at the disposal of any and all who want to enjoy its fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The underdeveloped countries of Asia and Africa have also benefited from the introduction of online classrooms. During the rise of the pandemic, when children could not leave their homes, online classrooms kept the academic journey of many students alive. Many schools with limited financial resources could not follow the SOPs of the quarantine which is why they had to be closed. The culture of education thrived through online classrooms for these places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-access-to-quality-education\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Access_to_Quality_Education\"><\/span>2.&nbsp; Access to Quality Education<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The quality of education has also experienced major growth due to the integration of technology in the field of education. The access of technology to the teachers has transformed their way of teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teachers do not have to keep explaining complicated stuff without any visuals. Today, if teachers introduce a difficult concept to the students, they have online content that can help the students grasp the concept without much hassle. Moreover, if a student falls behind in class, they can easily go home and revisit the lecture or use additional resources for better understanding. This has ultimately resulted in students becoming more confident and performing better in their institutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The quality of education has improved within every institution from primary schools to colleges. Not only is it easier to inculcate vivid imagination in kids by showing them relevant audio-visual content at an early age, college going adults can better understand the concept with the help of tech aid. Not having to go to various libraries and numerous bookshops, researchers can gather all kinds of information on the internet. The access to quality material regarding any topic is just a click away. Just like how the ability to access casino games at 777 is just a click away too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-access-to-diverse-fields-of-education\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Access_to_Diverse_Fields_of_Education\"><\/span>3.&nbsp; Access to Diverse Fields of Education<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Technological development has long been neglected in most of the third world countries, access to diverse fields of education has led to a rise in the number of students in these underdeveloped countries as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be it astronomy, biomedical, agriculture, artificial intelligence, one can explore any field on the internet they are passionate about. They can apply to foreign countries if they have the necessary skills required for the job. In this era of globalization, diversity is being embraced all over the world and the horizons of educational fields have also widened. There has been a vital growth in how much a knowledge-hungry individual can learn without having to go an extra mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Engineering and scientific research have never received their due attention in underdeveloped countries due to lack of technical advancements. The integration of technology in education is, however, changing that as well. These underdeveloped countries are spending more in the research and development sector as they have seen the rise of countries that have embraced technological education.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although education is a basic human right, it is still inaccessible to a wide variety of people due to shortage of resources and various other reasons.
