Do you think that technology served the process of teaching or it corrupted both the mentalities of the teacher and the student? (The teacher became more dependent on digital resources and the students are spoon-fed)

Technology, like most things in the teaching profession, is a tool, just like a text book is a tool.

It is how you use the tool that determines its effect on the students.

If you use technology "just because we were told to use it", then it is not effective.

Technology in the classroom can be beneficial. If you assign a project to students in which they have to do research on the internet, the technology becomes a tool which enables them to learn more.

The focus here is on whether the lesson could be done without the technology, in which case the technology is superfluous, or whether the technology is an integral part of the lesson.

We need to understand that we have to teach children how to use the technology responsibly. In other words, they have to understand that while in the classroom, the technology is there to help them to learn, understand, and ultimately create.

We should not be asking if we should use technology. Instead we should be asking how can we teach students to benefit from using technology in a responsible way that helps them to achieve.

In Saudi Arabia the true teachers understand what kind of commitment it takes from a student to suceed. Giving students Ipads to make notes during the lesson is not a good idear at all because all they do is play games and not pat attention.

I think the best way is to stick to pen and papper because when they do assignments it very easy to just copy paste information with out understanding or even reading when they use Ipads.

If they have to write things down it forces then to read so i would try as much as possible to use pen and papper.

where I was teaching they used Ipads but they were writing the exams with pen and paper.It never worked out because many of them failed.

I think that technology did serve the purpose of teaching and greatly improved it - but we not for all age groups.

For working adults, like myself, I find learning online did improve teaching and learning.  Learning online - from the convenience of my home and by setting my own schedule - is very convenient.  It is learning that I would not have been able to do otherwise because I have a family with young children. 

For young children (KG, primary school and to a lesser degree high school), the old methods of teaching are still best.  They cannot learn on a computer or on the Internet.  They will be easily distracted.  And traditional books are still the BEST way to learn.

the technology served great in the process of teaching but it's the teachers fault on depeneding too much on what the technology gives and not focus on what it can make and improve and the parents fault for not teaching the children on how to use the technology right and that's what corrupted the mentalities of both teachers and students

Students being spoon-fed depends mainly on the teacher's style. Technology can facilitate most styles of teaching, and I don't think it would be fair to blame it on the technology. The same old concept of two edged sword story applies here.
