Speed of technological changes accesses the highest level in the current century. Following the technology and usability rate is going down among the world population. The ability of new technology usage created a new social class in society. This differentiation positively or negatively affects the social and economic status of modern human thinking ability, creativity, and life quality. Especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, the ability of current technology usage made a big difference among people to access information and education.Methods: This cross-sectional study is descriptive and relational.

The male students have a significantly higher advantage of using technology compared with female students (p<0.05). We must emphasise that the economy of students also affects their lateral thinking ability (p<0.05). Conclusion: In this century, many changes and transformations are taking place in health care systems in parallel with technological developments. It is necessary that we must educate nurses who can contribute to the changes and transformations and adapt to innovations. To educate new generation innovative nurses we must adapt our education programs together with the academic staff.
