Education is an ever-changing aspect of every individual's life, and it will never stop transforming. The format a student learns has changed dramatically over time and continues to transform each year with new standards and new technologies. The idea of ​​using technology in the classroom is controversial for many reasons. Some argue that it is too costly and ineffective to be justified. While many people argue that using technology in the classroom is too expensive, provides an unnecessary distraction, and is ineffective for the student, technology can have many positive factors, such as improving the lives of students with learning disabilities, all... access to educators, improving the damaged school system and inducing the necessary character of independence in the student. While technology provides a relevant experience for the student and a practical introduction to the professional world, many people oppose the use of technology in the classroom. . Arguments include apparent inefficiency, lack of social dynamics, the pace of change and the inevitable distractions that technology would bring. The argument for the futility of web-based learning is widely studied, with ambiguous results. Donnelly and Benson (2012) state that in twenty studies focused on the effect of web-based learning on students, the results “reported higher post-test scores on several criteria.” -tests of choice but, overall, did not lead to an improvement in knowledge compared to traditional teaching methods” (p. 30). Although these results are somewhat unclear, they do not constitute an overwhelmingly positive argument for the change that web-based learning would bring about. Many oppose this demand for change because it is inevitably expensive...... middle of paper ......costly and a definitive transformation of the education system, the benefits on students' lives should outweigh on the cost and effort that would be required to be undertaken by educators. Improving learning should not be sacrificed because of hesitancy to change. Therefore, technology should be used in classrooms, and this will be to the benefit of the student in the long run. The evolution of technology is inevitable and students, teachers, administrators and parents must be prepared. Works Cited iPads help with learning. (2014).
