UK invests in digital transformation: In March 2022, Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi announced that the government is ready to spend \u00a3150 million<\/a> to give every school in England access to a high-speed broadband connection by 2025.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following the pandemic, remote learning has seen a boom, initially through necessity but now because it\u2019s been proven to work. A British Council report noted that after COVID-19, distance and online education received a significant boost<\/a>, creating new opportunities to reach students globally. Technology in classrooms is enabling students to engage in learning in a very different way from how they engaged ten years ago, with EdTech creating IT tools to provide a more engaging, inclusive and individualised learning experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Universities are undergoing a digital transformation in higher education, embracing a wide range of EdTech solutions to improve teaching and streamline operations. So how is EdTech meeting students’ evolving needs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open to different learning styles and paces<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a widely accepted fact that different people learn in different ways and at different paces. Some people learn better by reading, listening, talking, doing or drawing \u2013 there are dozens, if not hundreds, of different learning styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EdTech allows for all of these different learning styles to be considered, understood and catered for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where historically, students might have had one \u2013 and only one \u2013 opportunity to sit through a two hour lecture with nothing but a textbook and their own notes to refer back to, they can now access the same information in multiple formats whenever they need it. It might be as basic as a film of the lecture with accompanied transcript, or more engaging, interactive, online courses \u2013 either way, students can now learn in their own way and at their own pace, which can only lead to a greater sense of agency in their own learning and greater academic outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

24\/7 Accessibility<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the greatest strengths of\u00a0digital transformation in higher education\u00a0is accessibility.\u00a0Text-to-audio and audio-to-text tools\u00a0support students with vision or hearing impairments. These innovations create a more equitable learning environment for students, whether in-person or online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Video lectures, either streamed or recorded for later viewing, allow students with other commitments, such as caring responsibilities or health considerations, to watch and learn from lectures without having to leave their homes and without having to put other aspects of their lives on hold. They also allow neurodivergent students, such as autistic students or those with ADHD, to manage their own learning environment and learn at their own pace, in chunks of time that work best for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

EdTech is opening up the ways that students can communicate and collaborate with one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project management tools and e-learning resources make it possible for students to work together without having to be in the same room or even available at the same time. Group projects can operate in a fluid way, allowing students to still engage and learn together, whilst still being available for other important commitments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tutors can also input and feedback virtually, meaning that questions can be asked and feedback can be given more regularly, making learning possible at times that suit everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paperless classrooms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shift away from paper is not just about convenience \u2014 it\u2019s also about sustainability, a cause that resonates deeply with today’s students. This move aligns with broader efforts in the digital transformation in higher education, where admin tasks and study materials are now digital-first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September 2021, a global survey <\/a>found that 60% of young people aged 16 to 25 felt very or extremely worried about climate change, and more than 45% said that these feelings affected their daily lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It tracks then that paper-based learning isn\u2019t what students want, especially given that students today are digital natives. But EdTech allows for students to learn in a paperless environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashless Systems & Prepaid Solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Younger generations are more likely to rely on prepaid cards and digital banking than cash in their day to day life, so cashless payment is expected at university too \u2013 especially if remote learning is now commonplace. By adopting prepaid payout card solutions for the education sector, universities can efficiently disburse funds (scholarships, hardship funds, etc.) to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introducing fintech into the university experience through prepaid payout card solutions and digital wallets can bring huge benefits to students.. By issuing students with prepaid cards<\/a> on enrolment, they can easily receive bursary and scholarship payments quickly and to be accessed immediately. The risks of fraud and human error in inputting bank details are also diminished and processing payments<\/a> is much quicker than bank transfers or, even worse, cheques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepaid cards can also play an important role in societies, events and clubs. Student union and society fundraising activities often leave students in charge of large budgets but prepaid cards allow students to easily access and take control of their activities. Prepaid cards can also have restrictions<\/a> that mean funds can only be spent in certain shops, meaning that the budgets can be kept safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Payout cards can also be used as a recruitment and engagement strategy \u2013 students can be offered meals and travel expenses to attend open days or to volunteer, making these events and opportunities accessible to all students without racking up their own expenses<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And students facing challenging circumstances can be paid hardship funds in an efficient and cost-effective way, meaning that money can reach them quickly and when it\u2019s needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EdTech has transformed the way that students engage with higher education, from making learning more accessible to different people with different schedules, reducing the impact of learning on the environment, and making for safer and more efficient payment solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
