20 Sep, 2022 | Blogs

E-learning is the term used to describe training and testing services delivered or shared online. E-learning imparts students knowledge through electronic media, including audio, video, e-books, AR/VR, and other media. Students that use e-learning have a variety of advantages, such as affordable education and access to specialized course material. Additionally, since it improves employee performance, E-Learning has assimilated into the majority of firms. The need for continuous learning among professionals and students has grown due to broad trends brought on by globalization, talent migration, and steady advancements in corporate competencies and talent grooming during the past two decades.

While conventional learning and training approaches effectively address most learners' demands, they are ineffective in meeting the requirements of dynamic learners, particularly in the burgeoning learner segment. Since e-learning has made significant advancements in the adoption of digital learning platforms, the internet's role in education has expanded to include interactive learning channels, language classes, functional skill development, proficiency testing, higher education pedagogy, video streaming of classes, corporate training, talent management, and e-governance.

Market Stimulants

The increasing penetration of the internet, mobile devices, and smartphones are one of the primary growth factors of the e-learning market.

The Internet of Things contributes significantly to developing smarter and more connected schools. Smart classrooms are revolutionizing education in both public and private schools. Schools are getting increasingly technologically adept and outfitted with innovative tools and methods. IoT has transformed education from teacher-centered to student-centered. It offers the student with absolute autonomy of location and time for e-learning. It has altered content by making it very visual, as images and video are more popular than text nowadays, along with interactive information that engages learners. It will also enable energy conservation, enhanced home security, and faster data and multimedia streaming in conjunction with artificial intelligence. These developments in IoT are fueling the expansion of the e-learning market.
