The Roles of Emerging Technology in Chemistry Teaching and Learning for a Sustainable Development

S. O. Makinde, N O Oyeniyi

Abstract


The discipline of science education, and more specifically the teaching and learning of chemistry, has been greatly impacted by the rapid advancement of technology. Teaching chemistry through the use of information and communication technology ICT and emerging technological developments is becoming more and more common. A paradigm shift in the educational system has resulted from the effective integration of technology in instruction processes, this has greatly improved learning outcomes by making the teaching and learning process dynamic, fascinating, interactive, and engaging. The relevance of integrating emerging technologies into chemistry teaching and learning is the main focus of this paper. Attention was drawn to the functions of emerging technologies, which are in high demand right now. It also covers the significance of providing chemistry teachers and students with up-to-date technology skills as well as the continuous maintenance and improvement of those abilities to ensure a sustainable future. The researchers discussed how emerging technologies such as biotechnology, nanotechnology, information, and communication technology could be incorporated into chemistry curricula in secondary schools for a sustainable future. This paper also focuses on the expectation pattern of emerging technology and how it could be used to sustain the future. Relevant literature was reviewed in the areas of science education, chemistry learning, emerging technology, and education for a sustainable future.
