Background: Given the changes caused by COVID-19, modern information technology has gained a higher position, fostering the realistic comprehension of technology, developing an interdisciplinary program, and endorsing scientific and technological activities within the educational environment. Considering the advancement of information technologies after COVID-19, this study was conducted to explore the role of new information technology in shaping education during the pandemic.
Materials and Methods: In this systematic review, all relevant studies were searched in Medline/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, ProQuest, Iran Medex, Magiran, and Scientific Information Database (SID) databases from 2019 to 2022. The analysis was conducted using a thematic analysis approach.
Results: Of the 1966 search results, 15 articles were included in this systematic review. These comprised 9 journal articles, 5 conference studies, and 1 thesis study. Data were extracted under two main categories—education and knowledge management—and four subcategories: Learning, performance quality, infrastructure, and planning.
Conclusion: Developing positive and creative skills in using new technologies is a complex process, which, through joint planning in multidisciplinary teams, can enhance technology-driven education. However, using new information technologies requires more support for educational leadership.
