Introduction 

Technology is the application of scientific knowledge for the welfare of humanity. If we use this scientific knowledge for the welfare of students and teachers (for better teaching and learning purposes) it becomes educational technology. Many new technologies have emerged with the passage of time. Each technology brings new challenges and opportunities. Sometimes they revolutionize the world e.g. as computer technology has revolutionized the 20th& 21stcenturies.
