This study investigates the transformative role of technology in education, focusing on global trends and Pakistan’s context. The research examines benefits, challenges, and prospects of technology integration in teaching and learning. Using surveys, interviews, and classroom observations, data was collected from students, teachers, and administrators. Descriptive and inferential statistics, including t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, and regression analysis, were applied. Findings indicate that technology positively influences student engagement and learning outcomes but reveals disparities between urban and rural schools. The study explored the modern trends of education i.e. role of artificial intelligence, flipped classrooms, blended classrooms and use of online resources etc. Recommendations included improving infrastructure, professional development, and equitable access to digital tools to maximize the impact of educational technology. The Pakistan may incorporate the importance of information technology communication into the curriculum and pragmatically it may be imparted to students effectively. The insufficient budget allocation to education, untrained teaching staff in computer technology and lack of students’ digital literacy etc. are major challenges for transformation of technology in education in Pakistan. The rural areas of Pakistan may also need growth and development in technology and modern equipment in educational institutions.
