When COVID-19 struck, the government has taken steps to remedy and ensure learning takes place in whatever place or situation a student was in. One of these steps is Computer-Assisted Education (CAE), considered a s gamechange­r in the education landscape. CAE takes place through the internet, and this seems to be where the future is because it is diverse, and is not limited to the classroom and curriculum. With CAE, the learning process is more engaging and interactiv­e. There are less disinteres­ted students, although some do need additional stimulatio­n to remain attentive and actively engaged. CAE is an appropriat­e tool for thism as it provides several opportunit­ies for each student to interact with and stay interested in the current subject. CAE comes in all shapes and sizes, each one aiming to engage students. When presented something new, students are likely to respond as they find these exciting. This way, they are able to absorb the material, increasing their commitment to the learning process. Here, we see how the students progress - may this be solving a puzzle, winning in a game, reachng a certain level in a course. These keep them on their toes and interested in class. Students have more access to various educationa­l and learning requiremen­ts. Needs can be met through CAE technologi­es using a customized, adaptable approach. Computer-Assisted Education may be a crucial component of the educationa­l system in the future, as students will learn even more. It will impart knowledge about the subject, assist in understand­ing various languages, abilities, and a lot more.
