Here are some potential future trends that could bring a whole different learning experience:
High Degree of Personalization in Smart Classrooms and Smart Libraries
Educators would be able to move beyond the traditional teaching approach and offer a much higher level of personalized learning plan thanks to the many devices that would be made available to collect student behavioral data. By analyzing student learning patterns, preferences, and responses to various learning methods using more powerful mobile and IoT devices, educators would be in a position to tailor learning to the needs of individual students instead of asking them to adapt to predefined learning plans.
Using beacon technologies in classrooms and libraries will help to provide personalized recommendations to educators and students.
Fun and Engaging Learning
The technological and cost barriers to creating a smart classroom could be lower in the future. This would mean that students of the future are more likely to find themselves walking into classrooms equipped with interactive displays, wireless charging stations, and other IoT devices. With the help of these technologies, gamification would be easier to achieve and students are likely to be more engaged in what they learn as a result.
Energy and Cost Effectiveness
The ongoing cost of running a school is likely to be lower. For example, IoT devices can be used to monitor and optimize energy usage in classrooms and libraries. School administrations can use big data to analyze the usage of classrooms and utilization of professors to make more cost-effective decisions about staffing.
