Abstract

The globalization of education has already made the application of digital technologies extremely necessary. Fortunately, online platforms are available to teach classes, share resources, conduct assessments, and manage the day-to-day activities of academic institutions now more than ever. These technologies have shown a powerful impact on the education system in a positive way. The recent pandemic of COVID-19 has further institutionalized the applications of digital technologies in education. These technologies have brought about a paradigm shift in the entire education system, and it is no longer just a provider of knowledge, but also a co-creator of information, a mentor, and an evaluator. Technological improvements in education have made life easier for students and have come to provide useful knowledge. It is of utmost importance to evaluate and foster a correct application of the emerging technologies in the actual educational system and make sure students are getting to know and adopt them for their daily use in an optimum way. Knowing where and how to find the best information is as important as the information itself and it is teachers’ duty to guide students on their way to achieving that. Keywords: Emerging technological tools; Online education; Didactic material; Online applications; Virtual platforms.
