Predictions for the future of 'smart' education
Posted by Charley Rogers - January 22, 2018
A wave of new technology has been introduced into schools up and down the country changing the way
teachers deliver lessons and how students learn.
A research by Randstad Education found schools and colleges have adopted the latest tech to improve teaching and make lessons more interactive and engaging. Some of the innovations already in use include ‘gamifying’ lessons by incorporating game-like rules and tasks to increase motivation. For example, Shireland Academy in the West Midlands included Minecraft on its curriculum.
Education, the research found, will become more project-based and include more interactive content to keep up with students’ changing attitudes towards traditional media. Classrooms, it is predicted, will join the Internet of Things – a network of devices like smartwatches that connect and share data with other items and systems – and create ‘smart schools’ where the teachers, students and devices become more connected.
Pressure on teachers – 75% find their workload unmanageable – as well as rising student numbers means technology will play a larger role performing tasks to save time. Teachers are also reaping the rewards as lessons and assessments move out of the classroom and onto platforms that make it easier for them to chart progress and achieve a better work-life balance. Education experts have highlighted the importance of new techniques that help teachers do their jobs.
However, while tech will become more commonplace in the classroom, it is expected to compliment teachers and not replace them. It´s important to understand that teaching tools have come a long way since the days when teachers used to write on chalkboards and present using an overhead projector.
The research says that students today benefit from some of the most exciting technology available to schools, but it’s not just the pupils who benefit from these innovations through invigorating lessons and virtual learning. Teachers are also reaping the rewards as lessons and assessments move out of the classroom and onto platforms that make it easier for them to chart progress and achieve a better work-life balance.
Technology has arrived and the teachers and classrooms of tomorrow are here today.

This is how the way the world measures success in education is changing
Since 2000 when the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) launched a global
academic benchmark for measuring student outcomes by testing 15-year-olds, many global education systems
have been impacted by what sometimes looks and feels like a race to rank high.
When the OECD launched the Programme for International Student Assessment — PISA — the idea was to enable countries to make cross-national comparisons of student achievement using a common/standard metric to increase human capital. In other words, higher academic achievement should corelate with earnings in the future and a country’s standard of living. As PISA states, it publishes the results of the test a year after the students are tested to help governments shape their education policies.
As PISA has developed, through seven global testing rounds every three years, with the first in 2000 and the most recent in 2018, for some it has gained a reputation as the “Olympics of education” given the widespread attention that country rankings receive following the release of results.
Now, partly in the face of criticisms, PISA is looking at expanding how and what it tests. As this process unfolds, policy-makers must remember that the social consequences of a test are just as important as the test’s content. Putting a new face on PISA will undoubtedly present various opportunities and challenges.
To date, PISA has been restricted to what is generally called the “cognitive” side of learning, focusing on reading, mathematics and scientific literacy. In addition to test questions, students and school principals fill out questionnaires to provide contextual information on student and school environment characteristics that can be associated with more or less favourable performance.
Countries that excel in PISA tests, such as Finland, a country with less than six million people, have become regarded by policy-makers as a “global reference society” — an ideal to aspire to — due to their high performance in PISA rankings.
Asian countries or jurisdictions like Singapore, Hong Kong (China) and Japan tend to consistently achieve exceptional PISA performances and hence get a lot of attention from other countries wishing to emulate their success via borrowing policy. For example, England flew teachers out to China to study mathematics teaching.
In the next administration in 2021, PISA will tackle creative thinking, trying to find ways to assess, and have students assess, flexibility in thinking and habits of creativity such as being inquisitive and persistent. The PISA team is also developing a way of testing students’ digital learning, which should be ready in time for the 2024 assessment.
However, it should be remembered that education policies from high achieving nations don’t migrate across international boundaries without consideration given to national and cultural contexts. Rather, innovations and changes in education require teachers to have the time and opportunity to re-educate themselves in relation to more recent insights in what it means to get the best out of children.

The OECD will need to respond to previous critiques and provide greater transparency around newer test
instruments and the choices made to arrive at rankings. The latter is no small challenge since the future focus of
PISA is based on topics which seem more difficult to evaluate than math, science or reading skills.

The true potential of technology to change behavior
Technology could successfully change behaviours where decades of campaigns and legislation have failed.
With the quantified self already walking among us and the internet of things within easy reach, digital technology
is creating unprecedented opportunities to encourage, enable and empower more sustainable behaviours.
If we are to unlock the power of technology we must be more ambitious than simply digitising analogue
strategies or creating another communications channel.
The true potential of technology lies in its ability to do things that nothing else can do. In behaviour change
terms, the potential to succeed where decades of education programmes, awareness campaigns and product
innovation have failed; to make a difference where government policy and legislation has had limited impact.
Using behavioural insights, it is possible to highlight the bottlenecks, drop out points and achilles heels of
traditional behaviour change efforts — the reasons why we have failed in the past — and apply the unique
possibilities of technology to these specific challenges.
Overcoming our limitations
Luckily, the history of the human race is almost defined by its ability to invent stuff that bolsters its feeble
capabilities. That stuff is, of course, what we generically refer to as 'technology'. And in the same way that the
internal combustion engine and the light bulb allow us to overcome our relatively feeble powers of motion and
perception, so digital technology can be directed to overcoming our relatively feeble powers of reasoning, selfcontrol, motivation, self-awareness and agency—the factors that make behaviour change so difficult.
Herein lies the true potential of technology: not in the laboratory or the workshop, but in an understanding of
the behavioural dynamics that define the human condition, both generally and within the context of a specific
user-group, market segment or community.

Who's driving? Autonomous cars may be entering the most dangerous phase
Autopilot controls are not yet fully capable of functioning without human intervention – but they’re good
enough to lull us into a false sense of security.
When California police officers approached a Tesla stopped in the centre of a five-lane highway outside San Francisco last week, they found a man asleep at the wheel. The driver, who was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving, told them his car was in “autopilot”, Tesla’s semi-autonomous driver assist system.
In a separate incident, firefighters in Culver City reported that a Tesla vehicle parked at the rear of their fire truck as it attended an accident on the freeway. Again, the driver said the vehicle was in autopilot.
When California police officers approached a Tesla stopped in the centre of a five-lane highway outside San Francisco last week, they found a man asleep at the wheel. The driver, who was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving, told them his car was in “autopilot”, Tesla’s semi-autonomous driver assist system.
In a separate incident, firefighters in Culver City reported that a Tesla vehicle parked at the rear of their fire truck as it attended an accident on the freeway. Again, the driver said the vehicle was in autopilot.
The oft-repeated promise of driverless technology is that it will make the roads safer by reducing human
error, the primary cause of accidents. However, those vehicles have a long way to go before they can eliminate
the drivers.
However, research has shown that drivers get lulled into a false sense of security to the point where their
minds and gazes start to wander away from the road. People become distracted or preoccupied with their
smartphones. So when the car encounters a situation where the human needs to intervene, the driver can be slow
to react.
During tests the IIHS recorded a Mercedes having problems when the lane on the highway forked in two.
The radar system locked onto the right-hand exit lane when the driver was trying to go straight.
Concern over this new type of distracted driving is forcing engineers to introduce additional safety features
to compensate. For example, GM has introduced eye-tracking technology to check the driver’s eyes are on the
road while Tesla drivers can be locked out of autopilot if they ignore warnings to keep their hands on the steering

In spite of these problems, Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, remains bullish about his company’s autonomous
technology, even suggesting that by 2019 drivers would be able to sleep in their cars – presumably without being
arrested by highway patrol officers.

Who's driving? Autonomous cars may be entering the most dangerous phase
Autopilot controls are not yet fully capable of functioning without human intervention – but they’re good
enough to lull us into a false sense of security.
When California police officers approached a Tesla stopped in the centre of a five-lane highway outside San Francisco last week, they found a man asleep at the wheel. The driver, who was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving, told them his car was in “autopilot”, Tesla’s semi-autonomous driver assist system.
In a separate incident, firefighters in Culver City reported that a Tesla vehicle parked at the rear of their fire truck as it attended an accident on the freeway. Again, the driver said the vehicle was in autopilot.

The oft-repeated promise of driverless technology is that it will make the roads safer by reducing human
error, the primary cause of accidents. However, those vehicles have a long way to go before they can eliminate
the drivers.
However, research has shown that drivers get lulled into a false sense of security to the point where their
minds and gazes start to wander away from the road. People become distracted or preoccupied with their
smartphones. So when the car encounters a situation where the human needs to intervene, the driver can be slow
to react.
During tests the IIHS recorded a Mercedes having problems when the lane on the highway forked in two.
The radar system locked onto the right-hand exit lane when the driver was trying to go straight.
Concern over this new type of distracted driving is forcing engineers to introduce additional safety features
to compensate. For example, GM has introduced eye-tracking technology to check the driver’s eyes are on the
road while Tesla drivers can be locked out of autopilot if they ignore warnings to keep their hands on the steering
wheel.
In spite of these problems, Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, remains bullish about his company’s autonomous
technology, even suggesting that by 2019 drivers would be able to sleep in their cars – presumably without being
arrested by highway patrol officers.

Lawyers could be the next profession to be replaced by computers
Technology is often blamed for destroying traditional working-class jobs in sectors like manufacturing and
retail. But blue collar jobs aren't the only ones at risk on an imminent future: white collar jobs are going to be
affected by technology as well.
The legal profession is on the cusp of a transformation in which artificial-intelligence (AI) platforms might
dramatically affect how legal work gets done. Those platforms will mine documents for evidence that will be useful
in litigation, to review and create contracts, raise red flags within companies to identify potential fraud and other
misconduct or do legal research and perform due diligence before corporate acquisitions. Those are all tasks that
— for the moment at least — are largely the responsibility of flesh-and-blood attorneys.
Increasing automation of the legal industry promises to increase efficiency and save client’s money, but
could also cut jobs in the sector as the technology becomes responsible for tasks currently performed by humans.
Advocates of AI, however, argue there could actually be an increase in the sector's labor force as the
technology drives costs down and makes legal services more affordable to greater numbers of people. It's like the
beginning for a future changing in legal profession with AI-powered platform which can perform almost all
mechanical work such as creating a new contract or reviewing it for clients and companies.
What machines do better than people
One question raised by the introduction of AI legal platforms is how well they do their jobs compared to a
flesh-and-blood lawyer, who has years of experience under his belt. Supporters of this new technology defend
that AI platform can search documents for relevant information to lawsuits and other litigation as well as
experienced lawyers. Here are some of AI advantages:
Keywords: human beings are not very good at keyword searches. There's a fallacy that human beings looking at documents is the gold standard which cannot be, because human may miss things.
Database: the explosion in the amount of electronic data generated today makes it hard for human workers to keep up. This so much more data nowadays need these technologies find relevant material for lawyers. Also the AI could not just look at the text of a document or email, it can look at the tone of the conversation, who sent it, to check if the item should be flagged for review in litigation.
Restless: computers don't get tired, they don't get hungry, they don't sleep in and all of the things that are biological problems that can happen to a human being can't happen to computers.
An example of this technology is ROSS - it is a legal research platform based on IBM's cognitive computing system Watson. This technology is being used by a number of law firms, which state that the legal sector has being changing along the years. Firms, particularly larger ones, begin to see the advantage of AI, and their legal future possibly will completely change, with lawyers working from office, home office and other possibilities.
