What lies ahead in which concerns about education and technology should be an exciting mystery, more than the next iPhone(TechDigg International Giveaway- 3 Chances to Win a New iPhone 7!)

. Of course, gadgets are pretty important, since they are furnishing our lives with this futuristic, but classy touch while making them foolishly simple at the same time. However, how is tech crashing into our minds? Or even more important, into our kids and teens’ brains? No one seems to care about.

It is tough to think about how does it emerge technology in education around places like America, where 4 out of 10 students do not finish high school, 80% of the most economically proficient graduates, and only 30% of underprivileged youths do so.

From the academic point of view, nevertheless, Technology itself is not the answer to improving academic standards. What is a truth statement is that only knowledge will make us free, and being free, we will be happy.

The Cloud and Anywhere Access

So education also involves delicates subjects like equality, and more when we talk about its future firm engagement with tech, so that the experts like Matt Britland suggest that In the future, teaching and learning are going to be social.

Is all about access, anywhere learning and collaboration, both locally and globally. Classrooms would turn into the living room, the park or your favorite square, and the tools just will keep doing what they are already: supplying and providing the apprenticeship, but for all and sundry.

Major Trends in tech Educational Innovations

Technology in education will no doubt continue to penetrate as the transition from print to digital format is consolidated across all sectors. To predict its impact, the best is to review how is it leading the way until now.

Augmented Reality (AR)

We are waiting for Augmented Reality to take the world of tech education through games and awesome apps. Although the applications in learning are infinite, these are not yet ready to school.

Tools such as Sky Map allow exploring the night sky for the constellations, but it is not fully integrated as a component of teaching because the project has not yet fully matured.

By now, we can settle for apps like Duolingo and start learning a new language until the experts get the most of the juice of AR, like the idea of 7D Technology which is cooking and could not only shake learning up but put an end to the zoo animal captivity.

3D Printing

Also: Finally, we’ve come to an age of 3D holograms

The concept of molecular structures may be difficult to understand, but when printing physical versions of these structures, this can help students to stimulate abstract thinking, and help a better understanding.

For the little ones, how about a 3D printer, one specifically for children? Instead of limiting the same toys or games, students in the classroom of the future will be able to print 3D models for various purposes, including displaying and interacting with created models.

When speaking about buying a printer, it may sound expensive. What if you could print learning, in the shape of educational toys, designed by your own kids or any other member of the family?

Saving a lot of money in many playthings just by investing in a fabulous one. For me, a smart toy that would never expire. In the meantime, here’s how to feed wisely and technologically our kids brains.

Smart Paper

As educational environments are becoming more digitized, how could this trend be reflected in the future? Maybe flexible screens
—which race is on!— or some sort of smart paper.

Like plain paper, these displays will be light, flexible and extremely thin. This means that we can roll them up in tubes or fold them up like a newspaper.

Imagine taking your notebook with a vast amount of information on a piece of paper: a sample of the scope of this technology is this paper thin, A4-sized Sony
Digital Paper Prototype that weighs only 63g.

Some of these technologies already exist, so they are not futuristic. What I raise is the idea of using them in an educational environment over the next years, which makes it something utopian. What technology would you recommend for the classrooms of the future? Let me know!
