Caution Advised on Over-Reliance on Technology in Education

Technology has been incorporated into nearly every industry, and education is no exception. However, a recent statement from the superintendent of Hermleigh Independent School District has raised concerns about the potential pitfalls of excessive dependence on technological tools in classrooms.

The superintendent emphasized the importance of balancing technology use with traditional teaching methods. While acknowledging the benefits that digital resources can offer, such as enhanced engagement and access to information, he warned that an over-reliance could hinder critical thinking and interpersonal skills among students.

He pointed out that technology should serve as a supplement to, rather than a replacement for, effective teaching practices. The superintendent urged educators to remain vigilant and to foster an environment where students can develop essential skills that are not solely reliant on screens and devices.

As schools increasingly integrate technology into their curricula, striking the right balance will be crucial for fostering well-rounded, capable learners prepared for the complexities of the modern world.
