Research by McKinsey Digital revealed that 60% of all occupations could potentially have at least a third of their activities automated due to the fourth industrial revolution. Hence, an increasing need to adopt Education 4.0 and the use of technology in education. Here are the key benefits of education 4.0:

• Preparing students for evolving industries
  The skills required of employees will surely evolve as more organisations combine cyber-physical systems.
  The ability of technology to keep us connected at all times has led to an increase in the flexibility and adaptability of job duties. Hence,  Education 4.0 is all about adapting to change, bringing the use of technology in education and for schools to determine what their future students will require.
  
  
• Automating basic administrative tasks
  Administrative work takes up a lot of time for teachers. Automation of activity grading and assessment will become easier with the use of technology in education, benefitting the teachers. Automating administrative duties with cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) enables teachers to spend more time with students, further enhancing the learning experience in classrooms.
  
  
• Offering personalised education
  The purpose of AI and ML in education is to aid teachers in better understanding each student’s potential and limitations through the use of technology in education. Each student has a different learning method and pace & teachers are able to cater to these needs of students now through AI and ML.
• Providing constructive criticism
  AI can be used by teachers in the classroom to improve the guidance they give to their students and to make studying more exciting as the students are engaged in active learning. It also allows teachers to provide students with instant feedback, which helps students identify their weaknesses and figure out how to address them.
• Offering access to all pupils
  AI and machine learning are utilised in the classroom to make learning accessible to all students. Even students who are visually impaired or have hearing disabilities can access education with the help of AI tools like real-time subtitles, etc.  

The use of well-designed artificial intelligence in education enables teachers and students to benefit from the advancements in technology that can improve educational methods. AI-powered tools will assist teachers in improving students’ academic performance and sharpening their critical thinking abilities.
