INNOVATIVE PATHWAYS TO ENHANCE LEARNING WITH EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES

Abstract

The landscape of education is being radically transformed by the infusion of emerging technologies, reshaping how knowledge is created, shared, and applied. These technologies have opened new pathways for enhancing learning, making it more personalized, interactive, and globally accessible. This article examines how emerging technologies - such as artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality, blockchain, and immersive learning platforms - are influencing educational practices. It highlights the pedagogical opportunities and challenges associated with integrating these innovations and reflects on the implications for learners, educators, and institutions. By understanding the dynamic interplay between technological advancement and educational theory, stakeholders can forge innovative pathways that not only improve learning outcomes but also prepare individuals for the demands of the 21st century knowledge economy. The article argues for strategic implementation, continuous teacher training, and thoughtful policy design to ensure that the benefits of technological advancement are equitably distributed and pedagogically sound.
