Generations have seen the evolution and revolution of technology. The technology has changed colours in every field. The major difference can be noticed in the classroom technology. The classrooms were initially equipped with just slates and books. The slates were then replaced by computers. The huge CRT monitors and the towers were well recognised by students of every age. Computers, projectors and whiteboards were the main tools used by the teachers in the classroom.
Some time ago the CRT monitors were replaced by the flat screen, low energy consuming monitors. The new monitors required less space than before giving more free space for the students to relax. At the same time the teacher's classroom tools were also replaced. The traditional whiteboard was replaced by the interactive whiteboard. The interactive whiteboard could connect through the computer and the projector making the display more interactive than before.
The interactive whiteboard and the flat screen monitors brought a noticeable difference in the classroom technology. But people will be happier to know about the next generation technology which is the editable Simulation technology. As technology has improved the quality of simulation has also improved for education. Simulations are said to have a strong impact on the students as it helps the learners to visualise and conceptualise complex phenomena.
But the next generation simulation will not only help the learners to simplify their imagination but also create and alter the simulation made by them. This would be possible by the usage of certain software's which are in its nascent stage of development. The teachers have come together specially from the maths and science faculty to develop the required software. So students sit back to experience the authentic journey of change in classroom technology in the near future.
