Digital divide, educator development - few of the many education challenges that await attention in 2021
The year 2020 has revolutionised the education sector across the globe. Educated employment is another major problem faced by India which the National Education Policy 2020 aims to address by focusing on skill development, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, problem-solving and industry-relevant knowledge. Lack of teaching resources As stated in a Niti Aayog report released earlier this year, a single teacher may handle 100+ students in rural areas as a result of the shortage of trained teachers. Building digital twins and leveraging AI Building experiential learning platforms that help increase the learner engagement that bears similarity to the physical platforms is the need of the hour. Aggregating partner ecosystem Digital Technologies should act as a point of confluence bringing numerous stakeholders in the field of education, enacting different roles like infra providers, content providers, career guides, etc.
