1.    Customized Learning

Not two people are similar. But the way a teacher educates and teaches all the students in the class is the same. This means that the students are not able to learn in the best possible way. If the learning experience were to be customized per the needs and requirements of each student, it would help in imparting knowledge in the best possible way.

This is not physically possible for the teacher to do so in class, but with the help of technology, every student can learn in an environment that is attuned to their needs. In the analog world, it was impossible to cater to the needs of each student separately.

Students have various ways of learning like auditory, visual, kinesthetic, etc. Technology in 2020 is going to make learning easier for students using various tools such as videos, interactive games, AI learning, etc. You don’t even have to go to college campuses anymore since you can stay home and learn virtually.

2.    Ease of Access

As technology changes, knowledge becomes more accessible to us. Previously, if you wanted to read something, you’d gave to open the book, even in the soft form, and go through the letters and alphabets. Now, we have text to voice and voice to text transcription services that not only help you tread text but also makes it easy for you to write things down.

Have a long essay paper to write and are dreading the time it will consume to type it? Don’t worry as you can use the ever-evolving technology and take the help of dictation services. If you have dyslexia or some other learning issue, there are software and apps that specifically cater to your needs as well. Look at EssayPro reviews to learn more about essay writing services online.

3.    IoT – Internet of things

In today’s digital world, everything is connected. Even though the creation of smart cities is a long way from now, smart classrooms and smart schools are a reality now. There is a lot of work that is being done to make the classrooms and learning environment smarter and accessible. The use of automatic attendance system, real-time communication and feedback, etc. are various smart tools which are being implemented in classrooms using the Internet of things.

With the help of smart sensors in the parking lot, students would know where there is a free slot, which saves them the time that they would have spent running around campus looking for a place to park their cars.

The real-time communication system helps the students submit their work easily. Similarly, it helps the instructors to distribute the assigned work to the students. The bottom line is that the changes and evolution in IoT are helping and are going to help a lot of students in 2020.

4.    Cyber Security

With online learning becoming popular, the security concerns are going to increase as well. There is so much content available online that it is hard for the parents to keep their children away from harmful and illegal activities.

There is going to be a greater emphasis on parental control and transparency in online learning in 2020. Digital credentialing via 2-factor authentication and blockchain is already popular now, and we see lots of other security measures in the upcoming years.

5.    Artificial Intelligence

Though Artificial Intelligence is still in its early stages, we have seen various benefits of it so far and are looking forward to seeing plenty more in the year 2020. Be it suggestions of research papers similar to the ones we previously read or video tutorials that we watched to help with our studies; Ai is starting to be everywhere.

AI algorithms are being used in various colleges and universities to personalize learning. This means delivery of content that is customized to not only their needs but to their learning pace as well. As discussed above, this is very important and helpful.

AI also helps students with their queries with the help of automated responses. If a student wants to get some information regarding a course such as a timetable or a course outline, AI is there to help.

Conclusion

As humans evolve, so does the need and ways to learn. The technology and the tools which enable humans to learn to keep on changing and evolving along the way for the betterment of the world on the whole. The world is on the way of becoming a place where learning anything is becoming easier and easier a time passes.

Education and schools are evolving to embrace various new and smart learning styles that not only captivate students but also maintain the integrity of knowledge in different areas. As college students at this age, we have grown up using technology and are highly eager to see what new things and ways technology brings to make our lives even better.

Here’s to a tech-filled tomorrow!
