In addition to teaching strategies, technology can be used to accommodate the diversity of learners in the classroom. Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) can help students acquire skills faster. Additionally, computer-adaptive programs can adapt the lesson according to the progress of the student and can provide students with individualized feedback.

Finally, teachers can use computers to track students� progress and gather data on students, which in turn can be utilized to improve instruction.
