Education technology can make learning more interactive and collaborative—and this can help students better engage with course material. Rather than memorizing facts, they learn by doing. This could be as simple as taking an interactive quiz in class or participating in tech-enabled group discussions or as involved as playing educational games, practicing science experiments in a virtual lab or taking a virtual field trip. During this time as COVID-19 starts to effect our education, these resources will be necessary! To make it truly engaging, it must be truly interactive. For some students, interactivity provides a better learning experience. For teachers, the possibilities are endless: from using simulation tools to demonstrate how a hurricane develops, to using virtual reality to practice medical procedures. Thanks to technology, the classroom no longer has walls. We can use technology with flipped learning, formative assessments, and personalized development to help supplement lectures and curriculum with relevant content and experiential learning. STEM-based learning includes science, technology, engineering, and mathematics lessons that prepare students for lifelong success. Studies have shown that students’ problem-solving abilities, creativity, and innovation all increase when integrating technology with core content areas. With technology, we can prepare students for college and careers while also allowing for more personalized education. When students learn with technology, they gain skills that will enable them to be lifelong, independent learners.
