Educational institutions and businesses have been exploring distance and remote learning models for a while. The pandemic, however, turned it into a necessity and paved the way for a new era in education. Online and remote learning models have the potential to increase access to quality education for several people across regions where long-distance education could be far more superior and effective than the existing models.
According to a study by Allied Market Research, the global e-learning market was valued at $197bn in 2020 and is expected to reach $840.11bn by 2030, at a CAGR of 17.5 percent. This significant growth can be attributed to the rising demand for low-cost, convenient learning systems in a post-pandemic world. In addition, the surge in the use of AI and machine learning in remote learning systems has contributed to the expansion of the market.
Yet another promising trend is extending reality, creating more immersive and engaging learning opportunities. Emerging trends like microlearning, gamification, adaptive learning, and mobile learning are leading to more options and personalization features for users. With the ongoing deployment of software powered by self-learning algorithms, educators are seamlessly automating repetitive tasks like grading papers.
