Actually, the academic research, as a sophisticated method appeared in the Higher Education, needs to facilitate the process, so it is noticeable that technology has changed the way of performing research. In the light of the tremendous technological advancements, like the use of technology in research work saves time, effort and costs allocated to research without affecting its quality, in addition to the diversity of experiences, knowledge and skills lead to the conduct of competitive scientific research. Likewise, the development of positive tendencies among researchers, creative thinking has grown, and it also plays the role of a guide, which leads the researcher to creativity and innovation in his field of research. Technology also, removes the intimidation factor of researchers, who used the technology to gather data for the academic research required in their programs. Certainly, there are several reasons for using technology in scientific research; eliminating old research methods, that were large books, which requires much time and effort, and the cost, and helping the researcher to understand new concepts in easy ways commensurate with the intelligence and capabilities of each researcher, as well as achieving a high standard of quality in scientific research, furthermore, publishing studies among a larger group of people through modern means of communication, which leads to a high achievement rates among researchers, and increases the number of the study fields. This paper will attempt to discuss and outline the role of technology in performing the academic research, and show the importance of technology not only in doing the research, but also all fields of life, all over the world, as well as shed light on some devices used in conducting the academic research.
