Abstract
A crucial aspect of this research is determining the effectiveness of the tool developed for this study. This tool is built upon the understanding that technology continually evolves and significantly impacts higher education. It is believed that technology plays a vital role in how students learn in college today. This belief is supported by the numerous advancements that have been made in integrating technology into higher education across the United States. Additionally, technological advancements were incremental, but today’s rapid pace of innovation marks a departure from traditional patterns. Innovation is achieved by going through multiple failures, and our goal is to learn from history and provide a layout plan with interpretation that will serve as a disciplinary roadmap for the future of higher education in terms of technological advancements. The prospect of educational technology has undergone a remarkable transformation. We have moved beyond computer rooms with limited mainframes and face-to-face classes. The pandemic prompted a reassessment, especially in higher education, where online courses were previously overlooked (Handel et al., 2023).
