As one of the important aspects of human civilization, education continues to be a solid pillar that never escapes the evolution of times. Technology, which has always grown at a rapid pace has also become a tool used to support learning activities, changing the way children learn and interact with information.
Questions that often arise along with this change are about the benefits and challenges of using technology for learning. Read this article to find out the answers!
By using technology, teachers can use various forms of interactive learning, such as immersive simulations and unique multimedia content that can make the whole learning process more enjoyable. This way of learning has been proven to increase students' interest in learning compared to the conventional way of learning.
The use of technology in learning activities opens up many opportunities to increase students' motivation and enthusiasm to actively participate in learning. The presence of educational games or quizzes with scoring systems can present new challenges that make students excited and motivated to learn.
The Internet is a vast, endless treasure trove of educational resources. The ease of quick access to information paves the way for students to access information from various online libraries, educational websites, and even e-books. This can have a positive impact, as students have more resources at their disposal for learning.
Students need digital literacy to develop their digital skills. Through the use of technology in learning, students will be more familiar and accustomed to operating technological devices, running software, and learning various forms of digital devices that will be useful for them to use in the future.
A short attention span is one of the challenges that can arise from the use of technology for learning. The large amount of access to information that is difficult to filter can be a distraction that diverts students' attention from the learning process. To overcome this, teachers and parents must work together to implement strategies that can help maintain student focus, such as limiting daily screen time, creating clear rules regarding the use of electronic devices outside of study time, or using applications to limit access to distracting websites during study time.
One of the biggest challenges in efforts to use technology for learning is the unequal access owned by each school in each region. Not all students and teachers have the same access to electricity, digital devices, and internet connections needed to involve technology in teaching and learning activities. Ensuring fair and equitable access to technology in the world of education requires a joint effort from the government, schools, and local communities involved to provide the necessary support and resources.
The use of technology for education can form bad daily habits if students do not get proper guidance. Too much exposure to screen light from electronic devices used outside of school hours can cause various health problems such as eye strain, poor posture, and poor lifestyle. To reduce the health risks that can arise from this habit, it is important for teachers and parents to always guide and promote healthy technology habits through regular breaks and inserting physical activities that can help students balance their screen time with their overall health.

If implemented properly, technology can help make the learning process more interactive and fun for teachers and students.
For example, teachers and students can form a fun activity with technology by using Assemblr EDU in class.
Interactive features of Assemblr EDU, such as ready-to-use Topics and 3D/AR Teaching Aids can be used by teachers to explain lesson materials and various abstract concepts that are usually difficult for students to understand. The application of AR in learning can also provide a real and interactive picture to make students excited in class.
Assemblr EDU's 3D/AR editor can also be used as a technology-based practice tool for students to channel their creativity through 3D/AR creations!
The good news is, we are currently preparing something big so that you can immediately use Assemblr EDU in your class and learn more excitingly! Stay tuned for further information via our social media on Instagram @assemblredu!
