2020 trends - EdTech (Education Technology)

1.
AI, RPA, Chatbots to replace administrative tasks

2.
Adaptive Learning Systems use Analytics, DataScience, ML/AI for content recommendation & customized learning path creation (evaluate a student’s competencies, find weak areas, and then present supporting materials).

3.
Using Analytics, DataScience, ML/AI to predict student behavior, and to predict student success and recruitment.

3.
AI/ML to automate the creation of course summaries & flashcards

4.
Smartboards


5.
Voice Recognition & NLP

6.
Use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) gives students 1st hand experience - For example, the students can perform virtual surgeries rather than watching a video or live demonstration.


7.
Text to Speech technologies can be used by students to read out books to them.


8.
AI/ML can be used to do auto-translation of books that are otherwise not available in a given language.

9.
The Blockchain aka Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)'s advantage is that it’s a decentralized & transparent way to transact data - Those characteristics make it a fraud-proof way to transact and authenticate information. Schools will use blockchain for cost-effective cloud storage options and for securing student record transfers. Online educational platforms that still struggle with accreditation (verify skills and knowledge) will find its solution in DLT - Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) can use tools like open badges to solve the problem of authentication, scale, and cost - Open badge platforms like Mozilla’s will help job seekers and student applicants collect and publicly display their accomplishments.
