Identifying Key Indicators and Analyzing the Impact of Digital Technologies in Education

Digital technologies are increasingly transforming educational processes, reshaping how students acquire knowledge, teachers deliver lessons, and participants engage with one another. The rapid advancement of information and communication technologies (ICT) offers unparalleled opportunities for personalized learning, interactivity, and efficiency. At the same time, it presents significant challenges to traditional educational models. The integration of digital tools into classrooms has the potential to enhance student engagement, motivation, and academic performance while improving access to high-quality educational resources. However, improper or excessive use of these tools can lead to issues such as distraction, stress, and health-related concerns, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive evaluation of their impact. This study systematically examines the influence of digital technologies on students by identifying and analyzing key pedagogical, cognitive, socio-psychological, and technical indicators. Utilizing a multi-criteria approach, it assesses both the benefits and risks associated with ICT use in education. The findings provide actionable insights to guide the sustainable implementation of digital technologies, aiming to maximize their positive effects while mitigating potential drawbacks for learners.
