Abstract
This IDC report covers selected projects from Asia/Pacific countries where a smart education system is already implemented for the students. The shift to online education caused by the COVID-19 pandemic sped up the already-growing education technology industry. As the need for traditional schools continues to decline, remote learning opportunities are expanding because of developments in cloud computing and video conferencing, making education more accessible, comprehensive, and remote. Emerging technologies, such as virtual and augmented reality, will be included in the learning process because they enable a more immersive learning experience that enables visualizing content to cultivate and improve creativity, problem solving, and critical thinking skills.
"From elementary school through college and beyond, today's students have access to a wide variety of digital learning tools. Smart education allows students to go beyond what can be learned in a classroom using a textbook. The next generation of employees will benefit from the increased number of bright minds that smart education will bring," says Jezamin Abdul Razak, head, IDC Asia/Pacific Government Insights.
