REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE


Foreign literature revealed that technology aids student expression and presents
what they have learned. They can use software to make presentations and projects.
This makes them more interested in the subject and leads to better retention of
information. With technology aids, students will found it easy to remember notes in a
creative presentation of the information they have viewed. It is not wrong to say that
application of technology has made a student’s life easy. It is only easier for them to
carry a mobile phone or smart phone than carrying big fat books to school. Furthermore,
iPod is less bulky than pile of notebooks or an eBook reader much lighter than a book.
Most of our youth and students today are fond of going into internet shop to use
computer without knowledge of their parents what they are up to do. They will ask
money from their parents telling that they have something to search in the internet for
their project or assignment although others do so, but there are some who just make it
as an alibi so that they can complement shills with their peers through playing games
online like war craft, battle realms, cross fire, clash of clans, etc. (Khan, 2007). Foreign
studies in the field of Computer- Assisted Language Learning (CALL) designed the term
net generation and the same was clearly defined by Prensky (2010). Net generation
members are digital natives since they spend their entire lives surrounded by and using
computers, videogames, digital music players, video cams, cell phones, and all the
other toys and tools of the digital age which make them different from the other
generations.
Technology has eliminated space and time constraints. Online education and
distance learning have given a new dimension to education and higher learning. Even if
students are geographically far away from each other they can be a part of one
classroom though not physically but virtually, they can. Many educational institutes offer
online course which climates time and constraints in acquiring education. Universities’
offer online educational programs wherein students can internet with their teacher over
the internet access reference material from the university website and earn degree
online (Tritter 2008).
Local literature technology also saves teaching time as they require short time to
present large information. They can be used to imaginative power. As a whole, media
ensure the application of classroom-oriented communication techniques. Therefore,
learners should be assisted, encouraged and motivated not only to learn but also to
continue to learn (Demegilio 2009). Based on Demegilio, technology is a factor to the
learning of the student, not only to learn but also to renew something to learn. On the
Journal of Athens Academy (p.-66, 2009), it was emphasized that educational
technology can make student study more interesting and enjoyable. The changing
images and use of special effects among others can reduce boredom on the part of
learners. Furthermore, classroom interaction can be interaction. Technology can also
promote student- student interactive. Bringing the electronic media into the schools
could capitalize on the strong motivation qualities that these media have for children.
Many children who are turned off by school are not turned off by one of the electronic
media quite the opposite. An educational system that capitalized on this motivation
would have a chance of much greater success. Each medium has its own profile of
cognitive advantages and disadvantages and each medium can be used to enhance the
impact can be used to enhance the impact of others (Chaves, 2008).

Using the synthesis matrix, notes, and analysis of the selected references
done from the previous tasks, develop a literature review following the format below.
With technology aids, students will found it easy to remember notes in a creative
presentation of the information they have viewed. It is not wrong to say that application
of technology has made a student’s life easy. Due to the rapid expansiveness of
technology in learning, it has become a viable and inexpensive option. Almost three
quarters of Americans or 73 percent believes that investing in innovation and advance
technology sciences in education is key to the country’s long-term success.
Based on Freeman Dyson technology is a teaching aid. Owing to the audio-visual
effects, this way of teaching invites greater interest from students. Addressing systems
using microphones and speakers make it possible for teachers to reach a larger number
of students simultaneously. 
These teaching aids have led to improvements in student attendance and their
attentiveness in class interactive media has proven to be useful in increasing student’s
concentration levels. It only means that through using those technological devices, the
students may revolutionize the field of education. The importance of technology in
schools cannot be ignored. In fact with the onset of computers in education, it has
become easier for teachers to impart knowledge and for students to acquire it.  The use
of technology has made the process of teaching and learning enjoyable.

E-Reader devices like the IPod are in our current Society. The ability to gather textual
information with a single touch on a screen makes e- reader devices highly valued. As
what Brooks explained, he says that through the use of technological devices the
learning performance of the student’s may be affected. Most of our youth and students
today are fond of going into internet shop to use computer without knowledge of their
parents what they are up to do. They will ask money from their parents telling that they
have something to search in the internet for their project or assignment although others
do so, but there are some who just make it as an alibi so that they can complement
shills with their peers through playing games online like war craft, battle realms, cross
fire, clash of clans, etc. . 
Net generation members are digital natives since they spend their entire lives
surrounded by and using computers, videogames, digital music players, video
cams, cell phones, and all the other toys and tools of the digital age which make them
different from the other generations. Educational technology usage in practice teaching
can make instruction to be much more interesting and enjoyable. Further, classroom
interaction can be interactive. Technology can promote student-interaction, student
teacher interaction and teacher student interaction if pre- instructional planning
incorporates interaction. It is easier to store information that computers enable better
and it is a more robust storage of information which replaced notebooks.  It takes hours
to write, but it takes only seconds to type is a storing data and has become much
easier, owing to technology. Moreover, information is easily accessible.

The internet is a huge information base. There are several websites and web
directories that offer information everything in the world and all this is just a few clicks
away. Both teachers and students can benefit from this. Technology has eliminated
space and time constraints. Online education and distance learning have given a new
dimension to education and higher learning. Even if students are geographically far
away from each other they can be a part of one classroom though not physically but
virtually, they can. Many educational institutes offer online course which climates time
and constraints in acquiring education. Universities’ offer online educational programs
wherein students can internet with their teacher over the internet access reference
material from the university website and earn degree online.
Local literature technology also saves teaching time as they require short time to
present large information. As a whole, media ensure the application of classroom-
oriented communication techniques. On the Journal of Athens Academy , it was
emphasized that educational technology can make student study more interesting and
enjoyable. Bringing the electronic media into the schools could capitalize on the strong
motivation qualities that these media have for children.

Many children who are turned off by school are not turned off by one of the electronic
media quite the opposite.
