Abstract

Technology is a great blessing from God as it makes life easier. It has various facets of life and has a strong impact on living organisms. Modern technologies have a strong impact on our education system. In our study, we investigated the impact of modern technologies in our academic era. A questionnaire was designed and gathered data from both male and female students in the education department of NUML University. There are more than 90 % of students who are interested to use technology to excel in their careers in academia. Students are highly interested to solve complex problems by using search engines including Google and YouTube. Based on our research, there are more than 90 % of students agreed that information technology (IT) helped them to solve problems and improve their grades and skills. Similarly, more than 80 % of students are well aware of the ethical use of online tools and information by providing the proper references to the source to avoid academic misconduct.
