Educational technology began to evolve in the 1960s. Today, you’ll find education of all kinds is packed with technological innovations. Classrooms are filled with whiteboards, interactive projectors and projector-style document cameras which provide students with the tools they need to get a leg up on their classes. This helps both teachers and students better manage their schedules, lesson plans and workloads.
For Students
EdTech allows students to personalize their educational experience. Video conferencing tools have made distance learning achievable and manageable. Video content allows students to learn at their own pace, allowing them to pause, rewind, and revisit videos they may not understand automatically. Now, the classroom becomes a flexible environment for students, allowing them to take their education wherever they are or access a better educational platform that was once limited by geography.
For teachers
EdTech has given teachers a variety of ways to easily grade work and keep track of it using artificial intelligence tools that manage to be both time-saving and easy to use. This frees up their schedule so that they have more time to help one-on-one students or take care of lesson planning. EdTech is changing the way classrooms operate by moving everything online, going completely paperless. Even though this saves the teacher money because there is no longer any need for print printers, making sure all students are doing their part is easily shared with other teachers and classmates to collaborate on projects together.
