Today, technology plays a much more important role than it did in previous generations. Advances in information and communication technology, information and communication literacy, and not least, the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020 that has imposed restrictions of all kinds, have led to the expansion of the use of technology in education to a level that was hard to anticipate. Each generation of learners has unique characteristics and they are expected to be engaged in their own learning. This can easily be achieved through the use of technology in teaching. Therefore, technology must now be part of pupils' learning. We aim to explore below some characteristics of the generation of learners teachers have in the classroom today and how these generations have influenced the transformation of education in the digital age. We also want to present some of the underlying technologies, new ways of teaching and learning with technology, and some reflections on the importance of redesigning and rethinking education in the digital age.
