Education is about clarifying Confusion? Now I'm confused. It used to be about training new generations to carry the torch.

Evaluating the effectiveness of technology use in teaching and learning brings to mind Albert Einstein’s statement: "Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted". When we begin to consider the impact and effectiveness of technology in the teaching and learning process, obvious questions arise: "How do we measure effectiveness? Is it time spent in a classroom? Is it a function of test scores? Is it about learning? Or understanding?"

I hope it is not based on the function of a test score ... but sadly that is often the direction of education.
