Abstract
In the modern day and age, technology is very much ubiquitous, in other words it is anywhere and everywhere. The most interesting aspect of this trend is that the educational systems are adapting to technology at a rapid pace. This is increasingly assisting the careers of students as well as the teacher. The technology which is most often right on the fingertips, keeps everything and everyone updated while the rest is getting outdated. Classroom teaching can do wonders with the implementation and usage of technology since the modern world is in need of it.The current trend is to learn online, where almost everything is available on the screen right in front of the learner. These E-Learning techniques are epitomized in Google Suite for Education which offers a plethora of opportunities for the learners to explore various options in front of themto leverage ELearning. A study has been carried out to assess the effectiveness of assignments when submitted manually to the teachers as opposed to submission through an E-Learning facility like Google Classroom and the results show overwhelming success when this activity was carried out with the help of technology. This paper discusses incorporating technology in classroom learning, diverse ways of leveraging it in the classroom, its benefits and a number of relevant issues.
