| | FEBRUARY 20196CIOReviewFor decades, learning has been administered through conventional pedagogical practices. However, today, the continual innovation in technology is changing the entire paradigm of learning and development at academic institutions and organizations worldwide. Further, the emergence of education technology (EdTech) such as digital readers, cloud-powered learning management systems, on-demand video, virtual classrooms, and more, are influencing the way business professionals and students alike want to learn. The EdTech sector has generated revenue of more than $17 billion in the year 2017 and is projected to raise that number to an astronomical $271 billion by 2022. The development and adoption of revolutionary technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), machine learning (ML), and augmented reality (AR) are transforming learning into a more interactive and personalized experience. Therefore, leading EdTech organizations are now proactively upskilling themselves by adopting trends such as hands-on learning, byte-sized learning with gamification, VR, and AI to enable improved flexibility and enhanced learner outcomes. In addition, to drive maximum user engagement, EdTech providers are delivering personalized and specially curated content and delivery practices to learners. EdTech firms such as Coursera and Simplilearn are developing tools that combine software, hardware, and content integration to deliver a collaborative and seamless learning experience. AI-powered teaching assistants are helping teachers keep a track of student performances by gathering actionable insights and information about a student's progress and reporting the data back to the teacher. EdTech firms are also taking advantage of the popularity of gaming to develop tools with gamification features to boost student engagement. AR and VR-based EdTech solutions are enabling users to utilize a mixed-reality learning ecosystem in order to boost collaboration and creativity in learning.As newer avenues for learning surface in the marketplace, businesses are keen on implementing EdTech solutions to enhance their ability to provide digitally oriented learning experiences, and simplify the propagation of knowledge to help students and professionals alike to perform better. In the light of this, CIOReview presents its Education Technology edition featuring insights from industry leaders and innovative solution providers.We hope this edition is valuable in helping you build effective and efficient learning experiences.
