I think technology aids education in myriad ways, too numerous to be specific, but in general, technology can, and should, be seen as an extension of one's own intellect; of one's own body, to skirt near trans-humanism.
All The technology in the world, however, can never replace that act of physically experiencing something in person. This both supports the claim for technology aiding educators and students, and, unfortunately, levels it's utility with the students ability to learn. Moreover, "how" they learn. Not all students learn by wrote or by memory.
The point I'm making is that teaching students how /they/ learn individually will make the technology more accessible to each, in lasting and meaningful ways.
