since the potential of computer technology to transform
Skinner’s teaching machines, which was recognized in
the 1960s. It remains an important issue today with
debates about the impact of technology on our society,

If I had a parent approach me and ask me about the impact of technology on student achievement, based on the
information I gathered, I might respond by stating….
“The impact of technology on student achievement have many principle because of the education they need to move
forward in their life. As an educator they will know what to look for when they dealing with students. The educator will
be able to recognize the positive impact of parent engagement on student achievement, so many schools and districts

effect on student achievement, which they will use tools to support teaching and learning. The impact of technology on
student achievement will improve student’s behavior, engagement and achievement. The educator have to make sure that
they have an excellent connecting with families, which student learning can be shared using data, providing strategies to
support learning at home, and providing opportunities for two-way communication. It is very important that
communication with families begins on a positive note, to allow trust and cooperation to be built, and include information
