How can smart education system help your child prepare for next academic year?

Education is a trillion-dollar industry and has been growing at a staggering rate. However, 2020, the pandemic year, has left us contemplating how every business across the spectrum needs an overhaul to stay relevant and survive in the distressing times. Among the worst-hit sectors, education topped the list, where more than 1.2 billion children in 186 countries got affected by school closures. So whatever you have been doing to keep children afloat in the fiercely competitive world or make them outshine will soon become redundant. In such times, you have to look beyond traditional learning. The good old schools are not going to suffice the needs of the troubled modern world. School authorities have often tried looking beyond the essential learning components, but the exorbitant amount of infrastructural changes kept that ‘try’ at bay.

How technology abated the worsening learning gap

Technology has made better quality education possible even in the remotest areas of the country. Earlier,  quality education was synonymous with Tier 1 cities, but technology made that a right to all. Today, parents living in smaller cities worry for their child’s performance and growth as much as the parents in metropolitan cities; technology has mitigated this vast void. Smart education system has been changing the dynamics of the Indian education industry. What earlier was considered a luxury is now accessible to all. You can give the best education to your child without having to worry about shelling a considerable portion of your salary.

Let’s look at some of the incontestable benefits of smart education:

• Flexibility

Smart education system allows students to learn at their pace without being under constant pressure to keep up with other students like in a traditional education setup. They can visit their recorded lectures repeatedly or seek remedial help from the teachers in case of any doubt.

• Ample courses 

In a smart education system, schools are not bound by space or time constraints, so they can offer comprehensive courses compared to the regular curriculum. In addition, teachers can include various modes to impart education to make the curriculum enjoyable. This expands their learning, allowing them to learn beyond the syllabus.

• Teachers within reach 

Students had to wait for the next day to clear their doubts in a traditional setup. However, smart education offers students multiple communication channels to interact with the teachers whenever they want without waiting. This promotes a healthy relationship between teachers and students, where even introverted students get encouraged to ask doubts and clear them instantly.

• Increased collaboration  

Smart education allows students to collaborate with their peers. eLearning encourages group work where students become better at communication, conflict resolution, and leadership skills. They also learn new perspectives on things that help them learn faster and better.

High levels of knowledge and skills are considered requisites for active citizenship, employment, and social cohesion, which the smart education system can achieve.
