Abstract

Education plays an important role in the development of society and its various institutions, as it can guide individuals in their life paths and empower them to face the challenges of the era and keep up with rapid progress in various fields. Despite the economic and social challenges facing communities that affect education funding, schools face an increasing demand for education from society and the need to develop a new generation of graduates for the contemporary society. The quality of education is linked to the availability of interactive teaching staff and sufficient scientific and technological capabilities. In the current era of information technology, technology has witnessed significant advancements in concepts and applications, and the educational system has been influenced by these developments. The use of educational methods and techniques is considered a necessity in light of the overcrowding of curricula, the multiplicity of subjects, and the challenges posed by modern life. Educational technologies play a role in efficiently improving the transfer of scientific content, saving time and effort, and making educational experiences more realistic and applicable. The development of educational strategies and the training of teachers and students in dealing with information and communication technology have become essential in modern educational systems. Users must be familiar with these technologies and possess the necessary skills to use them effectively. Countries are increasingly focusing on developing educational strategies and enhancing the performance of teachers and students in dealing with information and communication technology in teaching and assessment processes.
