learning experiences effectively is an area of great interest to

technology come from the policy sector, business interests, the

resist using technology in their teaching (Cuban, 2001). Studies of
technology infusions provide a growing body of literature that
offers explanations for the outcomes of different modes of
technology incorporation at different levels of education.
Conclusions are varied, but overall, most researchers agree that
there is a long way to go before technology and learning can
seamlessly merge into an effective and undisputed combination
package.
