Educational technology has emerged as a crucial instrument in influencing the educational paths taken by today's youth, providing creative approaches to student engagement, education, and empowerment. This study examines how educational technology can improve learning outcomes, promote digital literacy, and get kids ready for the demands of a world that is becoming more and more reliant on technology. The research investigates how different technology platforms and tools, such as virtual classrooms, e-learning software, and digital collaboration tools, affect student engagement, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. Through the examination of both qualitative and quantitative data, the study emphasises how educational technology may support individualised learning, expand educational opportunities, and close knowledge gaps. It also explores how technology could support more equal and inclusive learning settings, particularly for marginalised communities. According to the findings, instructional technology not only raises academic achievement but also gives young people the tools they need to succeed in social situations and their future careers. To make sure that the future generation is ready to succeed in the digital age, this research emphasises the increasing necessity of incorporating technology into educational curricula.Numerous research papers published in various journals, periodicals, and internet sources provided the information used in this study.
