Abstract
The paper examines how emerging technologies have been used to enhance practices in different areas of education. It therefore explored ways by which educational psychology as a component of education can benefit from the transformation power of the new technologies to enhance its practice. The paper also captures how these technologies can be employed to improve security architecture in our nation and specifically in our schools. While the current situation of Nigerian educational system was explored on one hand, insecurity and its impact was examined on the other and how emerging technologies can help to combat security challenges and make the educational system stable which is one of the cardinal concerns of educational psychology. The paper concludes that the use of technology in enhancing security on educational campuses ensures that students and educators can pursue their academic endeavors in a safe and secure environment. It also recommends that digital literacy programmes should be geared to equip students, educators, and support staff with the necessary skills to effectively use and harness emerging technologies
