In many cases, the techniques our teachers use to interact with and impart knowledge to our students are embarrassingly outdated. Technology is the science of study of art or skill. Its importance centres around the practical application of materials and resources instead of mere study of the same. Technology in education has helped in imparting the quality and standard of education by a variety of ways and enriches the quality of pupil's classroom experiences. Teacher's prime responsibility is to involve students in high order of thinking so as to help them in the transformation of information and ideas. In helping students become producers of knowledge, the teacher's main instructional task is to create activities or environments that allow them opportunities to engage in higher order thinking. Technology in education has come as a boom in teaching learning process i.e., curriculum transaction and evaluation and is highly instrumental in making teaching effective.

Teacher Beliefs and Uses of Technology to Support 21st Century Teaching and Learning Introduction
Handbook of Research on Teachers’ Beliefs, 2015
Previous research has established the importance of teachers’ beliefs to classroom practices including teachers’ choices of instructional strategies (Smith & Southerland, 2007; Wilkins, 2008) and assessment methods (National Association of State Boards of Education, 2009), as well as their selection of instructional resources (Speer, 2008), and technology tools (Ertmer, Ottenbreit-Leftwich, Sadik, Sendurur, & Sendurur, 2012). As noted by Fives and Buehl (2012), research on teacher beliefs spans nearly 60 years and includes over 700 empirical studies.
