Application of Modern Educational Technology in the Teaching Management of Secondary School Teachers in Nanning City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region
This study investigates the application of modern educational technology in teaching management among middle school teachers in Nanning, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. A questionnaire was administered to 140 teachers from the Second Middle School of Hengxian County. Data analysis using statistical methods revealed that teachers generally recognize and accept modern educational technology. However, challenges remain, including teachers’ awareness, incomplete hardware and software, lack of integration with the curriculum, and individual teachers’ technological proficiency. The study found that modern educational technology enhances teaching efficiency by extending time and space, increasing interaction among stakeholders, and transforming abstract knowledge into more accessible forms. Despite these advantages, issues such as information redundancy and weak boundary awareness persist. Recommendations include improving teachers’ awareness and skills, updating facilities, and conducting regular training to enhance educational technology integration. Creating a collaborative atmosphere between teachers and students is also suggested to improve overall teaching management efficiency.
