Technology is the future of higher education and regular education. Here soon, technology will take over.

I like how MOOCS is meant for life long learning. This type of learning method is not just for college students. It is for anyone. Several students who have college degrees still partner with MOOCS. “Yet in the early stage of MOOC development, researchers have estimated that 65% to 75% of MOOC students already have college degrees” (Beatriz, Coningham, Horn, Radford & Walton, 2015, para. 1). With MOOCS you can learn thinking skills and the more one learns the better. There are different ways to work with this type of learning method. Some use social media and take advantage of the live stream. Others use their phones because that is the only piece of technology they may have. This method enhances student learning. Students can attend college and still use this learning method. It does not matter how you do it, what matters is how well it is being done for student
class anything is to amalgamate various learning methods. This is no different when it comes to social studies or any other subject.

There are many benefits to using different methods/techniques when teaching. One method may not work on a few students where the other method get through to those few. There are
or more tools and methods, in a way to provide a service or to produce something.

group discussions or tutoring. While the method was adequate, it had limited scope and was not the richest of learning environments. The advent of the modern Internet and rapid proliferation of technology from the mid 1990s onward offered increasingly more opportunities for technology application to learning. Today, use of online technology offers opportunities to enrich learning beyond the classroom. The question to be decided is the effect of technology application outside the classroom, and are
The twenty-first century is a world of technology, social changes and vast knowledge that is always growing. This can be intimidating for those who have witnessed the changes from the 1900 's, but for the younger people in society, this is the norm.

The Montessori Method (Word count includes Annotated Bibliography) The Montessori method began in the early 1900's by the first female doctor in Italy, Dr. Mary Montessori, as a way of educating mentally disabled children. Her ideas were so successful with these children that she began to apply her understanding of learning to study the potential of normally functioning children (Oalf, 2001).

attitudes towards technology play a vital role in adopting a set method in determining how to instruct with wireless laptops (Kervin & Mantei, 2010). Alternatively, the way teachers perceive technology will hypothesize a key determinant of the nature of this quantitative, pre-experimental study. In this study, the reason why teachers do not routinely and effectively use available technology such as wireless laptops in K–12 classrooms will be examined. To take full advantage of technology, while reducing
The world is changing every day, new experiments are done and new inventions are presented to people. Right now high politicians or big organizations, like United Nations, cannot guarantee that education would stay in every country the same as it is right now and that the methods would not change; the involvement of more and more technology to achieve new goals, leaving behind the old way of achieving goals and making the students accomplish them on their own.
