RELATED LITERATURE ON TECHNOLOGY -BASED VIEWING METHOD OF

LEARNING
Reviews of research conducted on the different methods of

learning amongst today's youth have become increasingly more

important as the prevalence of technology grows. In the year

2015, findings from a study conducted by Smith et al. found

that when comparing technology based viewing methods to

traditional methods of learning, there were a few key points

to take away. The study found that those students who used

technology based viewing methods, such as watching online

videos or using web-based applications for learning, were more

likely to be “engaged” and “motivated” when learning new

topics. On the other hand, those students who used traditional

methods of learning, such as in-person classes or textbooks,

were more likely to be “disengaged” and “bored” when learning.

Additionally, the study found that those students who used

technology based viewing methods were also more likely to

retain information for a longer period of time.

technology-based viewing methods to traditional learning
methods: A study of student engagement and retention.
Journal of Educational Research, 17(4), 253-258.

The impact of technology-based viewing on educational outcomes

has been studied extensively in recent years. In a meta-

analysis of multiple studies conducted between 2015 and 2020,

Koo et al. (2020) found that technology-based viewing had a

positive impact on student achievement, particularly in

mathematics and science. Additionally, they observed that

students who used technology-based viewing tended to be more

engaged and motivated in their learning.

In a study conducted by Zhu (2017), it was found that

technology-based viewing improved student engagement and

comprehension when compared to traditional methods of

learning. Zhu identified that technology-based viewing allowed

students to interact with visual materials in a more engaging

manner, and to explore concepts in greater depth.

Additionally, Perez et al. (2019) found that technology-based

viewing was associated with higher student motivation and

learning gains when compared to traditional methods of

learning. They noted that technology-based viewing provided a

more visual and interactive way for students to learn, which

in turn allowed them to take a more active role in their

learning.

Overall, the research suggests that technology-based viewing

has a positive impact on student achievement and engagement,

when compared to traditional methods of learning.

In recent years, there has been a rise in technology-based

learning in the classroom. This has caused many to consider

the comparison between technology-based and traditional

learning.

In 2015, a study conducted by Anderson-Carpenter et al. showed

that technology-based learning could be beneficial for

students in terms of increased engagement and improved

cognition. By providing a more interactive learning

experience, students were better able to understand and retain

information. Anderson-Carpenter et al. also noted that

technology-based learning could be more cost effective than

traditional methods, as it requires less maintenance and

materials.

A separate study by Wei et al. in 2016 compared technology-

based learning with traditional methods in terms of student

performance. Results showed that students who engaged in

technology-based learning outperformed their peers who did

not. Wei et al. concluded that technology-based learning is a

viable alternative to traditional methods and should be

considered by educators.
In 2017, Akbari et al. conducted a study of technology-based

and traditional learning in the same classroom. Results showed

that technology-based learning was more effective in helping

students understand complex concepts, as the interactive

nature of the material allowed for greater engagement and

understanding. Akbari et al. concluded that technology-based

learning could be a viable alternative to traditional methods

for teaching certain concepts.

Overall, the studies discussed above suggest that technology-

based learning can offer numerous benefits for students. By

providing a more interactive learning experience, technology-

based learning can improve student engagement and

comprehension of material. Furthermore, technology-based

learning may be more cost effective than traditional methods.

For these reasons, technology-based learning should be

considered by educators when developing curriculum.

The use of technology as a tool for learning has been growing

exponentially over the past decade. This has resulted in an

increased focus on the comparative assessment of technology-

based learning systems and traditional methods of learning.

According to an analysis of recent educational research by

Tellis (2015), the use of technology-based platforms for

learning can provide increased flexibility and access to

learning opportunities for students, as well as greater levels

of engagement and interactivity. Furthermore, technology-based

systems can also offer an enhanced level of content delivery

and a more personalised learning experience, with the ability

to customise content to the individual student’s needs.

A study conducted by O’Neil (2017) investigated the

differences between technology-based and traditional methods

of learning with regard to student motivation, engagement and

performance. The results indicated that students using

technology-based systems reported greater levels of

motivation, engagement and performance on tasks. Furthermore,

this study was able to demonstrate the positive impact of

technology-based systems on student performance, with students

using technology-based systems outperforming those using

traditional methods of learning in all measures.

In addition to this, a review of the literature by Kaur et al.

(2015) highlighted the potential of technology-based systems

to reduce the cognitive load experienced by students during

the learning process. This is due to the fact that technology-

based systems can be tailored to the individual student’s

needs and can provide greater levels of interactivity and

engagement. Furthermore, this review was able to demonstrate

the potential of technology-based systems to foster

collaboration and communication among students.

Overall, the results of recent educational research suggest

that technology-based systems can play an important role in

the learning process. Technology-based systems can provide

increased flexibility, access, engagement and personalisation,

as well as reduce the cognitive load experienced by students.

Furthermore, technology-based systems can also foster

collaboration and communication among students.

The following review draws upon literature published between

2015 and the present to compare educational perspectives on

technology-based viewing and traditional methods of learning.

Moyses and Ferreira (2017) explored how technology-based

viewing tools, such as multimedia, can be integrated into the

teaching of traditional subjects to create a more engaging and

effective learning environment. The authors concluded that

multimedia can be used in many ways, such as problem-solving,

data exploration, and collaboration, to give students a more

immersive experience.

A similar study conducted by Li et al. (2019) compared

traditional methods of teaching and technology-based viewing

tools in an academic setting. The authors concluded that

technology-based viewing tools can be used to supplement

traditional teaching methods, such as lecturing and

discussion. However, the authors also found that technology-

based viewing tools may be limited in their ability to create

an engaging learning environment and can be difficult to

implement in the classroom.

Khan and Zafar (2015) looked at the use of technology-based

viewing tools in the classroom for mathematics instruction.

The authors concluded that technology-based viewing tools can

provide students with better understanding and higher order

thinking skills. However, the authors also noted that these

tools may be limited in their ability to create an interactive

learning environment.

Overall, the literature suggests that technology-based viewing

tools can be an effective supplement to traditional methods of

learning. However, the literature also suggests that

technology-based viewing tools may be limited in their ability

to create an engaging and interactive learning environment,

and can be difficult to implement in the classroom.

The findings of Moyses and Ferreira (2017), Li et al. (2019),

and Khan and Zafar (2015) suggest that technology-based

viewing tools can be used to supplement traditional teaching

methods, but may be limited in their ability to create an

engaging learning environment and can be difficult to

implement in the classroom.

 RELATED LITERATURE ON TRADITIONAL METHOD OF LEARNING

Traditional methods of learning have been in existence for

several centuries and are still widely used in educational

settings. According to Meller and Hays (2001), “This method

emphasizes memorization of facts, mastery of skills, and

development of concepts” (p.10). Traditional learning has

several drawbacks, such as lack of autonomy and dependence of

learners on strict rules and regulations.

Despite this, traditional methods of learning have been

studied extensively by educational researchers and found to be

beneficial in certain contexts. For example, Casey et al.

(2009) found that traditional learning environments can be

beneficial for students as they can develop foundational

knowledge, learn to work cooperatively with others, and become

more disciplined in their study habits. Furthermore, research

by Crow (2014) shows that traditional teaching methods are

more effective than newer, more innovative methods, in

teaching mathematics.

Overall, traditional methods of learning can be beneficial for

students and can be used effectively in certain contexts.

However, it should be noted that different learners may

benefit from other methods, and traditional methods may not be

the best choice for all learners.

Methods: An Overview.” Educational Journal, 28(3), 9-14.

The traditional method of learning is still widely used in

many educational settings. This form of learning is based on

the premise that knowledge is best acquired through direct

instruction and memorization. It has been studied extensively

over the years and its efficacy has been proved in many cases.

In a review of related literature on the traditional method of

learning, Yarmish (2020) found that it can be an effective

tool for teaching basic concepts and skills, such as reading

and writing. However, it can also limit creativity and

imagination, as students are required to follow a specific

curriculum and receive instruction from a teacher.

In addition, Yarmish (2020) noted that although the

traditional method of learning can promote discipline and

structure, it can also lead to boredom and lack of engagement.

This is due to the fact that students are typically taught in

a lecture-style setting and are not encouraged to ask

questions or explore topics in depth.

Furthermore, Kelleher and Green (2019) found that the

traditional method of learning can be beneficial for students

who prefer a structured learning environment, as it helps them

to stay focused and motivated. On the other hand, it can be

limiting for students who are more creative and have a unique

approach to learning.

Overall, the traditional method of learning can be an

effective tool for teaching basic concepts, but it can also

limit creativity and lead to boredom. As such, educators

should consider other approaches to learning that can be more

engaging and tailored to different styles of learning.

Research has shown that traditional methods of classroom

learning have been effective for many years, particularly in

the areas of language acquisition, knowledge acquisition, and

critical thinking. According to a study by Chen and Lu (2015),

traditional methods of learning such as lectures, exercises,

and discussions have been proven to be an effective way for

students to learn, as they are able to gain knowledge and hone

their skills in a structured environment.

In the same study, the authors noted that traditional methods

of learning are particularly effective for language

acquisition, as they provide a clear structure to build on and

foster critical thinking skills. Furthermore, a study

conducted by Wang et al. (2017) found that students who use

traditional methods of learning tend to be more engaged and

perform better in language tests compared to those who rely on

online methods.

In addition, research conducted by Yang et al. (2019) examined

the role of traditional methods of learning in knowledge

acquisition, specifically in the areas of mathematics and

science. They found that traditional methods of learning were

still the most effective form of instruction as they provided

a well-structured environment for students to gain knowledge

and practice their skills.

Overall, these studies suggest that traditional methods of

learning are still a viable option for students to gain

knowledge, hone their skills, and develop critical thinking.

Although online learning can provide students with more

flexibility and allow them to access a greater range of

resources, research has shown that the traditional methods of

learning are still the most effective way to learn.

Most studies have found that traditional learning methods such

as lectures, textbooks, and class discussions are generally

more effective for students than online learning for certain

types of courses (e.g., STEM) (Wang & Moore, 2017; Zhu & Zhao,

2018). However, these studies have also found that online

learning can provide some unique advantages, such as

flexibility, convenience, and cost-effectiveness (Cheung,

2015).

Recent research has also suggested that traditional learning

methods may be beneficial in certain contexts, such as when

the course material is particularly complex or requires a

deeper level of understanding (Chou & Grudin, 2015).

Additionally, studies have indicated that the presence of an

instructor or teacher can be a major factor in student

success, especially when the instructor provides meaningful

feedback and guidance (Keller & Yang, 2016).

Finally, research has suggested that students who have access

to technology and online resources may receive a better

education than those without access (Zhang & Huang, 2018).

This is because online resources can provide additional

support for students and enable teachers to further customize

the curriculum for individual students.

RELATED LITERATURE ON THE EDUCATIONAL PERSPECTIVE
BETWEEN TECHNOLOGY BASED VIEWING AND TRADITIONAL METHOD
OF LEARNING

The use of technology in education has become increasingly

prevalent, and many studies have been conducted to compare the

traditional method of learning and technology based viewing.

In a study conducted by Dzulkifli, Ahmed, and Ali (2009), the

authors showed that students who used technology-based viewing

had improved scores in problem-solving compared to those who

did not use technology-based viewing. This indicates that

technology-based viewing is beneficial for problem-solving, as

it enables students to acquire knowledge and information more

quickly and efficiently.

Another study by Issac, Chiang, and Chiang (2015) examined the

effect of technology-based viewing on student’s attitudes

towards subject matter. The researchers found that students

who used technology-based viewing were more likely to be

interested and enjoy learning the subject matter, which

further supported the idea that technology-based viewing can

be beneficial for students in the long run.

Additionally, research conducted by Johnson and Johnson (2010)

found that technology-based viewing can be an effective tool

for improving students’ motivation and engagement in the

classroom. The authors found that technology-based viewing

allowed students to focus on their learning objectives and

engage in meaningful activities, which resulted in greater

motivation and learning outcomes.

Overall, it is clear that technology-based viewing can be a

beneficial tool in education, as it encourages learning,

engagement, and motivation in the classroom.

The relationship between traditional learning and technology-

based viewing has recently been explored in a variety of

educational settings. The educational perspective literature

has focused on the impact of technology-based content and the

potential of traditional methods to provide a more engaging

and effective learning experience.

To begin, a study by Lee, Chang, and Safford (2017) examined

the effects of using technology-based videos for teaching

content in a high school biology class. The results of the

study showed that students who viewed the videos performed

better overall than those who did not. The study also

suggested that the videos provided a more engaging experience,

as students reported that they were more likely to remember

the material when they watched the videos.

The use of technology-based learning materials has also been

linked to improved academic performance in other areas. For

example, Chen and Hwang (2015) conducted a study to assess the

use of technology-based materials in an English as a Second

Language (ESL) class. The results of the study demonstrated

that students who used the technology-based materials had

significantly better academic performance than those who did

not. This study provides evidence that technology-based

materials may be used to enhance the learning experience for

ESL students.

Finally, a study by Liu, Doering, and Zhu (2013) examined the

effects of using technology-based activities to reinforce

traditional teaching methods in a mathematics class. The

results of the study showed that students who used the

technology-based activities had significantly higher scores on

tests than those who did not. The authors concluded that the
technology-based activities could be used to supplement

traditional teaching methods in order to create a more

engaging learning environment.

In sum, the educational perspective literature suggests that

technology-based viewing can provide an effective and engaging

learning experience. The use of technology-based materials in

the classroom has been linked to improved academic performance

and can be used to complement traditional teaching methods.

RELATED LITERATURE ON THE NEUROLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE BETWEEN

TECHNOLOGY BASED VIEWING AND TRADITIONAL METHOD OF LEARNING

It has been suggested in recent years that technological

advancements have caused a shift in the way we learn and

absorb information.
A 2015 study by Zhao & Dogruel explored the neurological

effects associated with traditional methods of learning and

technology based viewing. They conducted experiments on fifty

participants and found that in comparison to traditional

methods of learning, technology based viewing was associated

with increased levels of dopamine and serotonin, resulting in

increased focus and concentration.

Another 2015 study by Ni et al. focused on the impact of

technology based viewing on short-term and long-term memory

retention. They found that those who were exposed to

technology based viewing were able to remember more

information for longer periods of time due to the increased

dopamine and serotonin levels.

The results of these research studies suggest that technology

based viewing has the potential to enhance learning and

improve memory retention. It is clear that further research is

needed in order to fully understand the neurological effects

of technology based viewing and its implications for

education.

viewing and memory retention: A study of short-term and
long-term memory. Proceedings of the International
Symposium on Educational Technology, 1-4.

In 2015, a study conducted by the University of California,

Irvine, found that students who used technology-based viewing,

such as virtual reality, had higher activation in their

brains’ visual processing areas compared to those who only

used traditional methods of learning (Chang, Chen, & Tseng,

2015). This suggests that technology-based viewing may be more

beneficial than traditional methods of learning when it comes

to the brain’s ability to process visual information.

In 2017, a study by the University of Michigan showed that

students who used a combination of traditional and technology-

based viewing had improved performance in visual recognition

tasks, compared to students who only used traditional methods

(Xu, et al., 2017). This suggests that combining traditional

and technology-based methods of learning may be an effective

way to improve visual recognition skills.

In 2018, a study by the National University of Singapore found

that students who used technology-based viewing had increased

activity in their brain’s prefrontal cortex, which is

responsible for higher-level cognitive processes such as

problem-solving, decision-making and memory formation (Lim et

al., 2018). This suggests that technology-based viewing could

be beneficial for improving higher-level cognitive skills.

Overall, the available literature from 2015 onwards suggests

that technology-based viewing can offer numerous benefits

compared to traditional methods of learning, such as enhanced

visual processing, improved performance in visual recognition

tasks, and increased activity in the prefrontal cortex.
