Education is vital in any type of society for the conservation of lives of its associates and the preservation of the public formation. The rationale of this chapter is 
not only to reveal the role of technology in education but also to reveal the factors 
affecting the proper utilization and adoption of technology in education. Prior 
studies carried out by researchers confirm that technology utilization and adoption 
in education undeniably helps teachers and learners in the teaching and learning 
process. This chapter serves as a stepping stone to support teachers to do better in 
utilizing and adopting technology in education to a certain extent as an alternative 
of overlooking their thoughts, efforts and desires in blindly trying to vie with the 
swift change of technology in education in this epoch. Hence, this chapter discusses 
technology in education, the roles of technology in education, factors associated 
with technology utilization and adoption in education and the factors that limit the 
proper utilization and adoption of technology in education.
