The management of an educational system is referred to as educational administration. It includes providing leadership for student education, establishing curriculum, carrying out assessments, and managing people and material resources to reach certain goals. It also includes the management of processes within a school system to ensure specific outcomes are achieved. Moreover, educational administration is critical because it allows schools to present opportunities for students to study. As technological advancements drive digital transformation and globalization, teachers may assist students in acquiring the technological skills needed to succeed in future careers. Also, the significance of integrating technology in education administration is to efficiently reach more students and facilitate customized learning through MOOCs, Virtual classrooms, video courses and augmented reality (AR) etc. It not only helps in imparting education but also helps in monitoring the student performance by collecting respective data. This book approaches Educational Technology & Administration while keeping in view these requirements. It not only identifies the gaps in existing educational policies but also suggests new research directions to make the teaching-learning procedure more efficient, accessible and easier. It further recommends development of new innovative policies, practices and reforms encouraging the scope of experimentation while ensuring quality. This book is targeted towards educators working closely in this field, researchers, policy makers and academic administrators working collaboratively towards the enhancement of the education system.
