Tech-Driven Transformations in Education

By The Invimatic Editorial Team | EdTech | December 26, 2023

The educational technology (EdTech) industry is proliferating due to ongoing innovation. These innovations are reshaping the education landscape, making it better equipped to teach future generations.

This is done with the help of online tools like e-courses, virtual classrooms, webinars, training videos, interactive modules, and digital assessments so that students can study at their convenience from any location with an internet connection and at their own pace.

EdTech is having a profound effect because it rapidly lowers entry barriers. Previously, only those of higher social standing could afford to send their children to conventional schools. Professionals in the field constantly work to improve the educational system by creating new and exciting features, tools, and resources.

The advancement of video conferencing software and multimedia resources has increased the accessibility and efficacy of EdTech. Blockchain-based grading tools and EdTech "robots" that students can use to take notes and assess student work are current developments in the industry.

The term "EdTech" may come up in a conversation with a school administrator if you inquire about the use of technology in the workplace. Scheduling events, coordinating admin activities, keeping tabs on teachers and students, and analyzing data are all made easier with the help of technology. The use of digital tools and applications has simplified many bureaucratic chores.

Integrating mobile and flexible technology into educational settings is critical for cultivating a dynamic and efficient atmosphere for learning. When technology is readily accessible to students, it integrates seamlessly into the learning environment. This accessibility encourages collaboration, fosters interactive and engaging learning, and provides students with invaluable digital competencies. Students are better equipped for the challenges of the digital age. They are better prepared for future success when readily available technology is utilized, whether for research, assignments, or accessing real-time information.

• Engaged learning environment: Technology enhances student engagement through interactive teaching methods, apps, videos, simulations, digital books, smartboards, documentaries, and short films, enhancing student interaction and learning experience.
• Future preparation: Incorporating technology in the classroom equips students with essential skills for their future careers, including analysis, problem-solving, teamwork, and digital literacy.
• Better connection with students: Technology enhances teacher-student communication and allows for curriculum explanations that resonate with students, providing new ways to connect with students.
• Collaboration: Technology fosters student collaboration, enabling them to study at their convenience and assist their peers, enhancing the overall learning environment.
• Support for learning: Technology enhances teaching and learning by providing diverse techniques, adapting methods to students' needs, and providing various materials for classroom use.

Online education is gaining traction in countries with large populations, such as China and India.

"The India Brand Equity Foundation projects that the country's higher education market will grow to $35.03 billion by 2025. From 2016 to 2021, IP traffic in Latin America was expected to increase threefold, with a CAGR of 21%, and internet traffic to increase 2.6-fold."

The demand for e-learning is rising due to its many advantages over traditional education, such as its adaptability, variety of certification options, and low entry barrier. More and more college students are turning to online learning platforms to improve their chances of landing a job, accelerate their academic development, and more easily enroll in upper-level courses.

1. Before the pandemic, online learning was optional, but it became necessary during the pandemic. Combining online and offline learning, hybrid education will become standard as people adapt to new technologies.

1. Immersive technologies like virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR) enhance learning experiences, particularly in science and tech fields, by providing additional learning elements and reducing distractions.

1. The education system is often rigid and needs more affordability and access. An alternative suggested is a LEGO-like structure where each level of education offers micro-degrees or credentials, allowing learners to pursue multiple courses simultaneously and reducing dropout rates.

There are many ways in which the education industry as a whole can benefit from EdTech companies adopting SSO for their suite of online learning products:

1. The more time teachers and students spend trying to remember different passwords for different sites, the less time they have to learn. Everyone can reclaim those few precious minutes by implementing SSO across all relevant platforms.

1. Once an SSO is set up, an institution's e-learning platforms can be accessed with just one username and password. This allows IT administrators to make it more challenging to generate a new password. This would protect against "password fatigue" and make it more difficult for hackers to access confidential student data.

1. According to research by Forester, each password rest can cost a business upwards of $70. Furthermore, the benefits of implementing SSO make a case for it, as 40% of all service requests concern passwords and resets.
2. IT administrators can use the time and resources they reclaim to give their users the best possible experience by taking better care of the servers.

• Enhanced Productivity: By automating processes and streamlining operations, integration can help educational institutions save time and money. Integrating a school's SIS and LMS would allow for seamless two-way data sharing between the two platforms, saving time and reducing errors. The school wouldn't have to enter student information twice manually.
• Enhanced Educational Opportunities: Integration can also improve educational opportunities for students. For instance, a teacher could use an integration to incorporate interactive video lessons from an external platform into their LMS lesson. In this way, students wouldn't need to leave the LMS to watch the videos; they could do so right there.
• Enhanced Innovation: The EdTech sector can experience increased creation with integration support. Integrating various EdTech products and services expands the potential applications of each component. For instance, a company specializing in educational games might have its products linked to an LMS so educators could use them in the classroom.
