Education technology (ed-tech) is globally transforming the way in which school education is being envisaged. With the advent of globalisation and the infiltration of technology and communications, a fast-growing concept of education technology has gained momentum in academic pursuits, whether in school or higher education or for skill-based learning or preparation for competitive exams. It needs to be noted that one of the key players who would need to adapt to this changing environment is the teachers, who primarily form the link between the curriculum and content and the students. Thus, this paper is trying to understand how the teacher is involved in this construction of new-age teaching-learning processes and how their work and interactions with students are faced with changes due to the advent of ed-tech.
