Abstract: Technology-integrated learning has increasingly shaped educational outcomes, yet disparities persist between rural and urban schools due to differences in access, infrastructure, and pedagogical support. This study examines how the integration of digital tools influences academic achievement across these contexts, synthesizing findings from credible online sources. Evidence suggests that while technology enhances engagement and learning outcomes overall, rural schools face structural barriers such as limited connectivity, insufficient training, and resource constraints, which hinder optimal implementation. Conversely, urban schools benefit from better infrastructure and institutional support, leading to more consistent academic gains. The study highlights the importance of contextualizing technology integration strategies to address inequities and improve learning outcomes across diverse educational environments.
