The cutting-edge technologies of the future are storming the education sector. Edtech is making individuals pick sides: Will technology replace teachers? Should policymakers encourage edtech so much that children won’t need schools anymore?



The model of schooling has grown over the years, but one thing that has remained consistent is that schooling and education delivery (offline or online) depend upon teachers.



Teaching is not a position bound by the standards of duty list or limited to geography or time scale. But a challenging part of teaching has been deciding what to teach and how to teach. With the beginning of the digital teacher, online classes, and the availability of content anytime, the teacher is problematized in a dilemma.



The future holds extensive usage of technology in the education sector-




  • Teaching and learning

  • Removing language barriers

  • Increasing access for divyang students

  • Educational planning and management

  • Respect for diversity

  • The local context in the curriculum

  • Pedagogy and policy.

  • Technology-assisted learning of languages will also be vast



Learning will be improved via innovative and experiential approaches, including gamification and apps, storytelling, numerous modes such as films, poetry, theatre, and music, and connections with real-life experiences. Therefore, teachers must shift focus from active learning to interactive learning. Teachers and students both need to co-learn.



Educator and researcher Seymour Papert has famously said you cannot teach people everything they require to know. The best you can accomplish is to position them where they can find what they need to know when they need to know it.



Distributed learning technologies will provide learners access and flexibility that standard schooling does not.



Finally, technology will not substitute teachers, but teachers who adopt technology will replace those who do not.






“The future holds extensive use of technology in teaching & learning, removing language barriers, increasing access for Divyang students, educational planning & management.”
