Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and the world better than you found it .When we ponder upon the word ‘Education ‘which comprises students and teachers it becomes more important to share the responsibility of making a better community and for that the role of technology cannot be ignored. In fact with the onset of technology in education it has become easier for the educators to impart the knowledge and for the students to acquire it. With the sudden shift away from the classroom in many parts of the globe the ed-tech tools used by the educators has made the learning process alacritous. During the pandemic technology played and continues to play an essential role in edifying the students outside of school. Commendably ,all countries successfully deployed remote learning technologies using  combination of online and mobile platforms and this effort has made students’ quotidian task of learning a joy .The use of audio and visual materials has helped students develop a better understanding of topics being taught. With technology ,education has taken a whole new meaning that it leaves us with no doubt that our educational system has been transformed owing to the ever advancing technology .

Its accepted that a well rounded education is a gateway to personal success. Educators’ uncompromising efforts to impart knowledge aided by technology has created epistolary relationship between the learners and the lessons without classrooms .Undeniably technology has helped educators to explore new dimensions through which they can facilitate learning in those impressionable minds .Therefore the process would be vacuous without technology which has malleableized it and hence is an exigent need of the Edu world .
