While this pandemic changed the world, it also changed the forms of technology with it. Digital technology has been evolving for quite some time and has a vital role in our daily lives. During our day jobs, it can be used at work to communicate, gather information, or solve problems. It also helps individuals connect with their family and friends or play games and interact with people through social media. Leading technology has also become essential in society and any job field, especially in the education system. Technology has brought a new lifestyle to humankind with its many advantages, such as communication. For instance, schools are using technology for learning purposes and can create lesson plans, communicate, and even conduct digital assessments.
