Abstract

This paper discusses the effect on student learning through use of technology in primary school environments; early education matters because it involves creative learning that needs engaging teaching. The study administered a questionnaire with multiple-choice questions as well as detailed open-ended questions via Microsoft Forms to all teachers who had at least one- or two-years’ experience (open-access link), after obtaining their consent prior to participation, and analyzed using thematic and descriptive methods showing how innovative technology is linked to better student learning outcomes when they play AI-based games, 3D print objects, and attend interactive workshops.
