The Influence of Science and Technology on English Education

Abstract

With the development and progress of science and technology, the impact of science and technology on education has increasingly attracted widespread attention in society. Focusing on the field of English education, the application of science and technology is conducive to promoting the teaching and learning of English. However, there are also negative effects of technology on English education. This study analyses the impact of technology on English education based on some surveys. It is found that technology has a certain promotion effect on teachers' teaching and students' self-learning. However, for poor areas, the use of technology is inefficient. Also, technology can cause the problem of over-dependence of teachers and students. Based on the above negative effects, this study suggests that micro-teaching videos can be used in rural English classrooms. Teachers should be good at identifying the authenticity of information on the Internet and know how to use and draw on the information. Teachers should also work with parents to guide students to use technology correctly.
