Abstract


The impact of technology in education has a far-reaching effect on how teachers and students learn, and it also plays a vital role in designing the technology to understand it better with pictures rather than words. It has led the world to move forward with great skills and experiences. Many of the youths have gained knowledge through this technology and have come up with brainstorming ideas and techniques. Due to excessive use of online chatting and shortcuts, the writing and reading skills of today’s youth have become very weak. Today’s youth rely more on digital communication and have forgotten about improving their writing skills. They don’t know how to use grammar properly, and also the proper spellings of words. They have become more dependent on technology and have forgotten to use their mind and learn new skills. Technology has decreased paper and photocopying costs, promoting the topic of “Green Revolution”.
