2018-02-26T00:33:00.000+05:30

With the rate at which scientists, engineers, and technicians are innovating newer and better ideas in the technological field, for us, the general population, the amount of work that needs to be done to accomplish a task is coming down. In the aspect of education, as topics like videos have been around for ages, new developments are putting things into a completely different perspective of immersive learning.

Data-Driven Institutions: With a lot of progress being made in the machine learning and big data centers, a lot of our actions are now being based on data collected. Universities and institutions can use this data for a wide variety of purposes, from checking how effective a class is to seeing if an old computer lab should be renewed or changed into a different more effective asset to the institution.
Immersive Learning: With better and more immersive ways of learning in the market like integrated video courses and even virtual reality, the complete effectiveness of them is not known to the public. Once their full potential has been unleashed, students can learn about atomic structure by experiencing it in a virtual micro world. We can hope that in the coming year's virtual reality helps to incorporate certain other senses into it like smell, touch, and taste.

Digital Course Materials and Assignments: With websites like YouTube and Wikipedia reporting massive traffic in the past year, we can see the impact of digital media in the educational field. Students can find any topic that they might need or have a doubt in an instant on the internet. Teachers can even use this as a media for explaining concepts to children, wherein they won't be limited just to a 2D blackboard explanation. Teachers can offer the students a 3-dimensional animation integrated content which will reduce the gap between what the teacher explains and what the student understands.

The Internet of Things: The Internet of things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enables these objects to connect and exchange data. Each thing is uniquely identifiable through its embedded computing system but is able to inter-operate within the existing Internet infrastructure. Things like our smartphone, fitness tracker, smartwatch, home electricals and almost everything can all be connected to the same network. Similarly, using the internet of things we can link the right devices to access how our education is going and accordingly find where we need to work on it.

Thus, we have looked at some of the new Edtech trends coming our way in 2018. To get a better idea of how it can benefit you and your learning curve, check out our YouTube channel offering videos on all concepts from Polymers to photosynthesis
