Technology has helped educators develop effective lesson plans and activities for students to stay engaged throughout the material. Teachers involving educational platforms in their lesson plans like EdPuzzle, FlipGrid, Google slides, Microsoft, Kahoot, podcasts, or videos brings the students attention and enger to learn. Accroding to the School of Education “through engaging and educational content, teachers can spark inquisitveness in children and boost their curiosity”(“How important is technology in Education? benefits, challenges, and impact on students”). Students are expanding their knowledge on the concept at the same time gaining technology skills when they are navigating through these platforms. The skills students are learning are “creating decks or slide shows to be presented, or attaching documents to emails to communicate important information. Allowing students to learn and retain these skills prepares them for life beyond the classroom”(“How to integrate technology in the classroom”). The more educators expose their students with technology and educational platforms, the more students are preparing themselves for future jobs.
