The Top Tech Trends Reshaping the Modern Classroom

August 9, 2019/in Blog, Education /by CTSI

Technology is revolutionizing the modern-day classroom. While the days of chalkboards, library books, and dioramas are coming to a close, we must prepare for current and future technology infrastructure that will have a massive impact on schools.

Today, passionate teachers and their tech-savvy students are utilizing a whole host of game-changing tech trends to re-imagine the way kids learn, create, and collaborate.

Let’s take a look at the top tech trends reshaping the classroom.

1. Cloud computing

Advancements to cloud computing are not just streamlining processes, boosting productivity, and facilitating collaboration in the modern business world – schools, too, are switching to the cloud where possible.

Here are just some of the cloud-based solutions classrooms are using:

  • Remote access of course content – kids don’t soak up 100% of the information shared with them during the school day. Now, with remote access via cloud capabilities, they can open up class notes and revisit what was covered in class from home.
  • Anytime accessibility for teachers – students can now submit their homework and assignments online, meaning teachers can access their work from anywhere at any time of day.
  • Class collaboration – students and teachers can engage in collaborative learning seamlessly via cloud-based apps and storage.

2. Student-tailored learning

Every student learns in their own way, and differentiation is a fundamental skill of any good teacher. What’s more, today’s youth expect more from their day-to-day experiences.

“[Students] aren’t interested in simply showing up for class, sitting through a lecture, and taking notes that they’ll memorize for an exam later on. Instead, they expect to be fully engaged and to be a part of the learning process themselves.” – Forbes

Technology allows teachers to move beyond the traditional one-size-fits-all approach. The latest gadgets, educational apps, and customizable interfaces make tailoring learning experiences for each child far easier than ever before.

This level of engagement can completely transform a child’s approach and attitude to school and learning.

3. Virtual reality

Virtual and augmented reality give both classroom and online teachers a whole new way to immerse their students in whatever topic they are studying. For example, if the kids are learning about the solar system, they can fly past the planets and gain a visual understanding of the Milky Way.

Similarly, real-time broadcasting of surgical operations can help medical students gain up-close experience without stepping foot in a medical theatre. The result is more cost-effective hands-on learning experiences that can be contained and monitored within the classroom.
