Education
Technology is transforming Education for the masses.
In advanced economies, technology is helping attract students, from the start of the student’s journey with the user experience of the institution’s website, to the flexibility needed in how schools deliver education, to the digital transformation of business operations including data governance and management.
However, in emerging economies such as India, Africa, South America, Middle East and South East Asia, education is riddled with many contradictions in terms of accessibility, parity and quality. Key challenges include mass populations, high acquisition costs, linguistic barriers, implementation challenges due to infrastructure issues, governance and technology skillsets.
Technological evolution of Education in emerging markets.
The good news is that in the past decade, higher education in emerging markets has witnessed tremendous growth in terms of number of students enrolled, number of courses offered, reach of institutions, and technological evolution.
As a result of this growth, the business processes at universities has become quite complex. Many major school boards and universities across emerging economies have automated their critical processes, to some extent; but in a highly non-comprehensive way.
Using disparate software and technologies render them unequipped to leverage the information gathered for other inter-dependent processes in a true sense. As an example, one of the major problems faced by many universities is to conduct infallible examinations and provide tamper proof certificates. There isn’t any real seamless integration between affiliation, registration, examination, evaluation and verification systems.
