However, new technology helps teachers manage their classrooms more efficiently and effectively, helping teachers transform lesson plans to minimize wasted time and maximize student engagement (“Improved Classroom Management,” n.d.). Specific educational technologies are designed to help teachers with classroom management, especially with regards to organizing school activities, communicating with students, and providing a communication network for parents, too (Bhaskar, 2013).
