This article highlights the five ways in which Education May Change by 2020. It looks into the mode of teaching, the student’s position, the value of a degree, level of innovation, and the requirements for institutions.
• Education will be taken remotely.
Education will be taken from home. There will be a curriculum whereby the teacher is interacting with students online without physical interaction. Students will be reached out outside their schoolrooms to interrelate with other teachers, students, scientists, experts, and the renowned authors. It will improve their learning. Most of those digital-native students will grow up to come to be teachers, and continue to use and build their societies of learning online.
• People will have different regards to diploma.
The level of innovation will drive institutions with an unbundling of degree offerings. The schools will experience a shift towards new competency-based curriculums and relevant competition for students. The employment gap in education will enhance the higher educators to consider creatively about offering training that meets the needs of students. The diploma offered to students will be a determinant of their opportunities in the market.
• Students will be respected.
Students will ultimately be customers of education givers. It, therefore, means they will be respected and listened to encourage them to buy into their healthier choices their companies will be offering. However, education will be extended to various sectors in specific like health where mobile apps will be used to provide kids with the nutrition data and suggest the day’s menu. Therefore respecting and engaging students and their families as well as partners will be a different focus in methods we have not experienced before.
• Curriculum will be changed.
All types of schools and institution’s curriculum or content will not be considered as the principal differentiator. Nonetheless, their judged will be based on how efficiently they manage complex contributions into a valuable package for the students and the graduates. Utmost professions will point to some dramatic deviations in their ways of work and the technological innovations.
• Institutions and teachers will be required to adopt.
Education will mostly be driven by the technology. It will be, therefore, a requirement that the educators will be well conversant with the same. Any institution that will not be able to adhere to the requirements will be considered irrelevant and will not be certified. There will be more training to the educators to ensure they have acquired relevant skills in online teaching and assessments. They will be required to perform their duties of teaching without necessarily having to meet their students physically.
In conclusion, education is an essential requirement for everyone who wishes to be conversant with the trending and improving technology. It is evident that by the year 2020, the level of education will have changed to a different level, and most people will see the need to upgrade their standard of education. Innovation will be a significant aspect of life. There will be more students with competence to transform the world. Educators and institutions will experience tremendous transformation from their current states.
