The results indicate that, in terms of critical thinking skills, the most significant impact of technology access to the learning skills with a mean score of 4.22. While on creative thinking skills, the most significant impact of technology is access to learning skills with a mean score of 4.20. for collaboration skills, the most significant impact of technology access to the learning skills with a mean score of 4.33. and for communication skills, the most significant impact of technology is access to the learning skills with a mean score of 4.44. The findings suggest that most of the students use technology to improve their learning skills.
