Not only has technology helped the world’s teachers to teach more efficiently, but technological advances have helped the learner, as well.

For some of us, we would not know how to function, if it were not for our mobile devices. The world has become dependent on them, since they make our lives much easier, by keeping track of data, which would be hard for a normal person to keep up with.

The amount of change that is shown between the ways we learned of a major news event at the end of the Twentieth Century, and how we learn now. Technology will always play a role in how people learn, that, in turn, will help society function more efficiently.
