Abstract
In the post-epidemic era, education and technology are becoming more and more closely related. As technology continues to innovate, the use of scientific and technological software, artificial intelligence, etc. in education is becoming more and more widespread. This article analyses three aspects of education: parents, educational institutions and students, and offers advice and suggestions to educational institutions for improvement based on the views of students and parents. Parents are supportive of their children learning programming languages and are willing to allow their children to use technology in the classroom. However, parents still have concerns about the financial support needed and the negative effects (eye health, etc.) of using technology for their children. Students would like to be able to incorporate more interesting technology into their learning process as this would greatly increase their interest. Educational institutions also find the use of technology in the implementation of their curriculum. However, they still have concerns about investing money in it. We believe that technology plays a vital role in programming education and that if used correctly it can benefit students, parents and educational institutions alike.
