How Will IoT Change the Education Sphere? | Emerging Education Technologies - 0 views

  • According to a research study, “IoT in Education Market” by MarketsandMarkets, the global market size is expected to “grow from $4.8 billion in 2018 to $11.3 billion by 2023.”
  • Personalized Learning One of the biggest hurdles with the typical education system is the lack of flexibility in the course work. The course is the same for each and every student. The human-to-human interaction in a classroom space is collective and does not take into account the individual pace and needs of the student. Building on the idea of Big Data collection, with IoT each student can be evaluated and monitored on an individual basis. Weaker students may be granted a modified course work that caters to them individually to bring them up to speed. On top of that, the aggregate data can guide the instructors to modify the coursework on the go depending on the collective class needs.

  • Financing Issues Financing is another hurdle. Government expenditure on Education is already stretched to its limit in most countries around the world. Plus, education isn’t really the sector that sees significant improvement in budget increase every fiscal year. It is general knowledge that education is kept on the back burner since it is not the topic that wins votes. Information Technology hardware can be expensive and IoT infrastructure can demands a lot of it. To implement IoT, either government or private investments may need to subsidize it.
