Abstract


Educational technology is a fast-growing and increasingly developed subject in education during the past 50 years. The focus of the development of its theories and research is oriented into the methods and effectiveness of its implementation. Education is something that was once not available in certain parts of the world. Understanding the ways, technology has helped with education and the actual impact made will help you to see how vital technology has become effective in the education world. This paper uses a mixed method to collect and analyze data from 30 teachers and 30 students from 30 schools in Sulaimani Province gauging the impact of technology on teaching and learning in their schools. It asks whether technology has any impact on the teaching and learning process and also asks to what extent teachers and students use technological means for teaching and learning. As a result of the interview which has been conducted by the researcher with both students and teachers, there is clear and compelling evidence to state that technology has a tremendous impact positively in both learning and teaching processes. Interestingly, as concluded in this research, students more use technological means for education purposes than teachers.
