                     "Accelerating progress in science and technology has stimulated a new age of discovery, and many of the technologies identified are critical to building a sustainable and resilient future,” said Council Chair Professor Sang Yup Lee at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). Technology has changed lives. In terms of education, technology has been officially incorporated in the schools, and is really changing lives. It has been said that the future depends on students. Their skills are need in order to produce ground breaking new inventions in all areas, especially for medical, military and scientific.

                 However, 21st century skills are an important consideration for educators as they are striving to prepare today’s students to become prepared for the competitive global market of tomorrow. Teachers are using technology to help students with every subject in schools. Teachers and students have incorporated living in a hi-tech world into the classroom. Thereby, making their experience a richer one that is enjoyable. Technology is integrated into every class. Every form of ease for students learning and knowledge development is assisted with the use of computers, hardware devices, software and other forms of tech tools.

              
              Technology has enhanced intelligence, reasoning skills and understanding. Schools need to use technology to better the lives of their students by enriching their minds and the students by making learning easier with the use of computers in the classrooms and other learning equipment that will help teacher and students alike. And the most important role of technology in students' lives is that when they are going on to careers once they leave school, they must have been educated with an advanced understanding of technology to succeed in finding employment in the working world.
