future trends of digital education in India

Urban India has usually been quick to adapt new technology after the advent of computers in India. Technology revolutionised the publishing industry, the automobile industry and almost every aspect of urban life. Yet for some reason it did not influence education. However, that seems to be changing now. Coaching classes have adapted video for revision and extra lectures, online schools are sprouting all over the internet and some education companies have come up with study platforms to teach various syllabus of national and state boards.
The challenges to overcome
The teacher ratio according to recent surveys has increased and will keep increasing to an acceptable level in the years to come. Unfortunately, the other concern about the quality of teachers has probably become worse. Many institutions including government and government aided ones prefer having teachers on contact because it helps them to xyz. Unfortunately there is no motivation for the teacher to do a good job. In fact, it becomes a reason for him or her to do next to nothing in class so parents send their children for tuitions. Many parents send their children to teachers like this because they know the children will pass the class with good marks. After all the marks a in the teachers hands. Sine see a marked improvement in their children which is compared to absolutely zero happening in class. So this double benefit gives the teacher some extra income. Unfortunately, whatever the teachers intentions he will not be able to help all the children. Helping complete the syllabus, explain concepts and assess each child is a humongous task. This is the reason why parents find their children fall further and further behind the class although in the earlier years the child may have shown a lot of promise.
Technology takes care of a couple of huge tasks. One the sharing of information. If one of of the jobs of a teacher is explaining concepts then that task can be easily offloaded to technology. A recorded lecture can explain a concept to one child and to every child whenever the child wants and as many time the child wants. Recorded lectures can do a better job because animation and illustration can be included in the lecture for better clarity.
Assessment
Computers can be easily stored with as many questions as possible and programmed to compile a questionnaire very easily. Artificial intelligence is even right now capable of compiling a questionnaire according to the abilities of each child. So a smart child can become smarter and a week child can be supported with easy questions and slowly helped towards difficulty levels. Scores can be found immediately. And software can easily find strengths and weaknesses. This can give an immediate assessment to the child about which concepts are clear and which concepts are difficult. This information can help the teacher to concentrate and explain the concepts that are not clear to the child. And this is just the tip of the Iceberg of what technology can do. The sky is the limit once we start investing in technology. Highly qualified and experienced teachers can teach a class of thousands without even having to be present. Introduction to students via Internet unsolved we are problems even if Delhi Vinay place which does not have access to qualified teachers.
The scope of artificial intelligence is such that holographic teachers can easily answer most of the questions and difficulties any child would have. It is only when human intervention is absolutely necessary for specific disorders or weaknesses of a child that human teacher's presence will be needed.
The train of homeschooling is also catching on. Parents are realising that the school is not giving their child what they believed should be offered to have a healthy mind and body. Although many schools or not offering high quality teaching they are also lacking in physical activities. The students are not encouraged in sports and many times the school does not have adequate facilities for any kind of sports activities.
