EdTech: where education is heading in the Digital World

Advancements in the digital space are reaching every sector, and education is no exception. These innovations bring a long list of benefits not only for students but also for educational institutions, schools, and academies, enabling them to improve their educational quality, better attend to each student—and their families—and, most importantly, adapt to today's world.

A clear example is hybrid education, which gained relevance during COVID-19 and has now become a common format that combines in-person and online learning. This model offers greater flexibility, student autonomy, and immerses learners in the world (and use) of technology.

Moreover, several technological developments in recent years are here to stay:

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

The term “Artificial Intelligence” isn’t new. It had been discussed for years, but we never imagined it would become part of our daily lives. Since ChatGPT’s launch in late 2022, AI has become a key tool in education and business.

AI offers almost personalized assistance, helping both students and teachers access focused information, clarify doubts, and identify learning difficulties in order to address and resolve them.

Important! Like any technological tool, it must be used responsibly and wisely. Since it's a chatbot that gathers information from various sources, it’s always a good idea to double-check data and avoid simply copying and pasting into documents, which could result in plagiarism.

Management Software for schools

School and academy management software is also gaining importance due to the benefits it brings to institutions and businesses—such as saving time and money, adapting to current environments, optimizing daily administrative and operational processes, and offering personalized support to students and teachers, among many others.

In the case of Kydemy, it has developed an innovatve cloud-based management software for dance, music, art, and language schools and academies. This platform enables businesses to delegate their daily operational tasks—such as managing class and course schedules, tracking student and teacher attendance, monitoring payments and debts, and sending communications to students, families, and teachers—among other features.

Thus, Kydemy’s academy software simplifies daily administrative tasks, allowing schools to focus on teaching and growing their business.

Augmented Reality and the Metaverse

In a world increasingly driven by technology—especially among younger generations—it’s becoming harder to capture students’ attention. This pushes educational institutions and teachers to adopt new formats that go beyond traditional teaching methods.

Using tools such as augmented reality, virtual reality, or the metaverse helps make learning topics—some of which may be tedious or complex—easier to understand. It also minimizes distractions by immersing students in a “virtual world” that pulls them away from the real world and compels them to focus on the learning moment.

Big Data and Data Analysis

Big Data and data collection and analysis tools have also become key allies in education. They allow the collection of valuable data about students—their learning challenges and progress—enabling the development of better education systems and improving learning quality.

In addition, these tools make it possible to offer more personalized education tailored to students' profiles, interests, skills, and needs. With progress tracking and monitoring, teachers and schools can better identify learning difficulties and make adjustments to their teaching methods.

Technology is now part of our everyday lives, and implementing new digital tools is becoming increasingly essential to reap daily benefits. If you run a school or educational academy—of any type or discipline—and haven’t yet explored new technologies, we encourage you to give it a try and see the advantages they can bring to your business.
