The quality, availability, consistency, and accessibility of technology play vital roles in shaping learning performance and effectiveness. However, it is important to recognize that technology alone does not guarantee desired learning outcomes. Instead, the interaction between humans and technology, along with the design dimensions of educational tools, significantly influence students' learning outcomes and their psychological engagement with the learning process. Moreover, improper utilization of technology can pose obstacles to effective learning. This paper aims to provide a thorough examination of the effects of technology on the learning process, aiming to identify instances where technology serves as a facilitator or hindrance to learners. Furthermore, a diverse range of suggestions will be presented to optimize and enhance the role of technology in promoting effective learning experiences. The research highlighted the advantages and disadvantages of different technology aspects on students, and highlighted how keeping the learning outcome as a principle in course design will lead to the proper evaluation of learning outcome. By delving into these crucial aspects, this research endeavors to provide valuable insights and actionable recommendations for educators, policymakers, and stakeholders seeking to harness the full potential of technology in education.

<p>The research is aimed at systematizing the most effective approaches to the study of creative thinking in foreign and domestic science. The following directions of studying creative thinking are considered: on the basis with which it is associated; on the paradigm that underlies it; on essential grounds; on the typology of creative achievements; on the basis of the approach developed within a certain scientific school; on the study of the features of the activity process; on developing practices; on adherence to the main factor influencing creative thinking; based on the allocation of components in the structure; based on the differences between creative and non-creative thinking; compensation of undeveloped components of creative thinking by strengthening more developed ones; neuropsychological approach (cognitive), from the point of view of self-actualization of personality. After the analysis, we tend to believe that the multicomponent consideration of creative thinking is the most effective one. When studying and developing creative thinking, it is important to pay attention not only to the operational component of creative thinking, but also semantic, motivational, emotional components (interest, joy from engaging in creative activity), which determine moral meanings, attitudes, states that ensure the manifestation of creative thinking in activity. Only with the simultaneous development of semantic, activity and emotional components of creative thinking, its development will be the most harmonious one, being carried out with the less effort on the part of students and a teacher.</p>

“…Alshahrani and Almutairi (2022) emphasized the importance of tailored strategies and professional vocational development programs to effectively incorporate TBAT into Saudi special education practices. They highlighted the discrepancy between the theoretical effectiveness of TBAT and its actual application (Tan et al, 2022;Alqahtani, 2020). This research directly addresses the need for comprehensive studies within the Saudi context by attempting to uncover the impact of TBAT on academic pursuits, skill enhancement, and overall learning experiences for students with diverse needs.…”

This study examined the experiences of special education teachers in Saudi Arabian classrooms regarding the integration of tablet-based assistive technologies (TBAT). It explored the thoughts and issues encountered by educators, as well as the outcomes of these innovations on academic progress and functionality. The demographic of the study was a group of educators consisting of staff members with a moderate level of expertise, primarily located in high schools that serve diverse communities. The participants indicated favorable sentiments towards the advantages of TBAT, such as heightened involvement, customized learning results, and enhanced communication abilities. Nevertheless, obstacles, such as insufficient training, restricted resources, and reluctance to embrace change, were acknowledged. Correlation and regression studies demonstrate the connections between perceived advantages, difficulties, and the influence of TBAT on academic advancement, highlighting the predictive nature of educators’ opinions. Enhancing the results of special education in Saudi Arabia may be achieved by providing specialized professional development to professionals, improving technical assistance, aligning TBAT implementation guidelines with local settings, and establishing a consistent framework for continuing evaluation.
