The World Around us is Transforming Where is Smart Education?
Technology Should Transform Education • Most Major industries have transformed over the past few decades through the use of technology. • But Education has yet to transform through the use of technology for teaching & learning. • Technology can greatly improve teaching and lower costs, especially for TVET. • Delivery and scalability can be improved. • Learning can be improved and adapted to student needs and delivered where and when they need it.
Medical area is a close parallel Education needs a larger vision
The Future is changing . . . . We must too • Technologies are changing • Jobs are changing • Skills are changing • How about Education? Tech Jobs Skills Learning
ReINVENTing Education and TVET
VIRTUAL TVET
What is Virtual TVET? • Using Technology for Teaching and earning • Interactive 3D modeling, animations, and simulation to visualize technical processes • Delivered with standard 2D PCs, Tablets, VR, AR and blended (braided) with Practical hands-on. • Content delivered through an LMS system that can provide student performance info to the schools and educational managers. • Learning off campus and on campus • Schools networked together to form functional clusters with COEs at the center.

Virtual TVET is now a possibility Labtech 3D Virtual TVET
The educational aims of Virtual TVET • Targeting the areas that students have difficulty understanding and that takes time for the teachers to teach. • Improving comprehension of the foundational Knowledge of technology and its applications • To develop and prepare them in advance of practical training tasks in the lab. • Thereby reducing workshop time or increasing student throughput • Teachers have more time to develop student hands on skills and mentor them.
Converging Technologies will change educational Capabilities • Schools can transform by Shift from using the new technologies Static to Dynamic for the benefit of : Ed Adaptive Platforms • Teaching Learning LMS/CMS/ Big Data SMS • Learning School Transformat • Administration ion Connect- • ICT infrastructure Learn ivity - AWAT Cloud New Content 2D/3D, VR, AR, MR
Benefits of Virtual TVET • Lower Costs by 50 to 75% – Redesigned labs for Digital learning – Less equipment, different equipment – Digital upgrade is equivalent to a physical lab upgrade • Quicker Implementation time – Traditional methods take time and huge cost and have poor scalability – Digital Deployment is much quicker
Benefits of Virtual TVET • Teacher Improvements – – Updating Instructor Skills to new technologies – Enables teachers to train more students – Frees up Teacher’s time to mentor students – Increased capacity. • Labs and workshops and curriculum upgrading – Provides a virtual upgrade to older labs – Improves instructional materials – Can improve curriculum delivery
Benefits of Virtual TVET • Helps keep schools Up to date – Easier to keep curriculum and content up to date – Keeping up with the latest technology and industry needs – Upgrading and adapting new courseware and materials • Performance Monitoring – For School, teacher and student performances
Enhanced Student Learning Potentials • Enhanced Quicker Learning • Differentiated & Deeper Learning • Flexible Learning pathways • Strengthens Fundamental Concepts • Skills Cluster Approach • Formative Assessment tools for Competency • Learning on Demand: anywhere and anytime • Learning process more similar to work • Moving beyond time-based education to performance or competency based.
21 st Century Learning Environment On-line VR AR 2D/3D DAQ Hands On Practical Lab
Potential role for Big Data and Learning Analytics • To monitor performance at schools, teacher and student performance. • To enable differentiated learning to tailor learning to the individual needs and styles (slow, medium, fast learners) • Adaptive learning: learning that can adjust as the student progresses and offer more choices for exploration • Learning is characterized by feedback and interactive learning and formative assessment
