As we wave farewell to 2023, we’re looking ahead to educational tech trends in 2024 with optimism for education as a whole.
While the pandemic is now behind us, educators still grapple with learning loss and academic disparities and inequities that it has created.
In 2023, a new popular kid in town, better known as AI, dominated headlines and prompted debates around how students could abuse–and should use–the generative tool for learning.
The future of education is changing, and global workforce demands will be influenced by the need for knowledge around and skills in fast-growing technologies such as AI. This begs the question: What’s next for education?
eSchool News reached out to school experts, executives and stakeholders to share their thoughts and predictions on education trends in 2024. Jason Russell, President and Founder of Secure Environment Consultants shared his thoughts around safety and security trends:
“As we head into 2024, many schools across the country will receive increased federal funding to help put safety plans into effect. Right now, many schools have a safety plan, however a gap currently exists between assessing threats and responding to them. In this next year, we’ll see many schools across the country commit to prevention and seek solutions and resources to close the implementation gap. This will ensure school leaders have the support they need to keep the safety of students and staff top of mind.”
