The incorporation of technology in education is of paramount importance

reality tools that allow students to explore and interact with subject matter
in a more immersive way; and online collaboration tools that facilitate
communication and collaboration among students and teachers, fostering
a sense of community and active learning and adaptive learning platforms
that personalize instruction on the basis of individual student needs and
progress are promising globally adapted digital teaching technologies.
This book is designed to serve as a comprehensive guide to the
multifaceted landscape of digital teaching technologies. This book offers
insights and practical knowledge that can be applied in various educational
