After a gap of close to two years, campuses of educational institutions have started buzzing with students again. With omicron's fears subsiding, schools and colleges were directed to resume the offline classes and discourage online classes. As students go back to brick-and-mortar classrooms, will digital classrooms or EdTech platforms continue to note the massive uptake in its user base?
The boom in EdTech space was very much on the upward trajectory from 2016 onwards. However, the pandemic and subsequent lockdown just fast-forwarded the process and start-ups emerged in large numbers to be a part of the growth journey. This space will definitely grow in the years to come because the students and their parents have experienced that learning can happen through online mediums which they were sceptical initially, says Partha Halder, Centre Head, FIITJEE Punjabi Bagh Centre, New Delhi.
Smaller towns will be the growth driver
However, the growth, says Halder, is expected to come from smaller towns and cities where there is a dearth of good teachers or offline services. And even in big cities, online education will complement offline education.
EdTech is becoming more prevalent across educational institutions as it provides children with more practical knowledge and new pedagogy of learning. Audio and visual aids for better understanding. Considering how the attention span has decreased among children, EdTech keeps them engaged. It also provides them with an opportunity to understand, learn, and create, says Mridul Ranjan Sahu, CoFounder, CuriousJr who believes that EdTech will continue to see an upward trend in time to come as there has been an inclination towards it among parents and educational institutions globally.
