The Adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the Education Sector

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing a sea change in the educational system. IoTs are revolutionizing the classroom by making lessons more interactive and interesting for both teachers and students. An understanding of why IoT is becoming a vital component of daily instruction and learning is gained in this chapter, along with a discussion of the challenges and relevance of the technology in question. According to the study's findings, students can work together in real-time thanks to IoT devices. Smart whiteboards, for instance, enable collaborative brainstorming, note-taking, and writing amongst a group of people. Moreover, VR programs can imitate real-world circumstances, providing pupils with a more comprehensive education. Teachers can tailor their lessons to each student's individual needs with the aid of IoT devices. Teachers can make a greater impact on student's academic performance and engagement if they take into account how their students learn best. There are various ways in which humankind will profit from IoT development, but these gains will not be free. Some of the biggest drawbacks of the Internet of Things are security concerns, technological dependency, and employment insecurity. Governments throughout the world are investing time and energy to find solutions to these challenges and unlock the full potential of the IoTs. The capacity to employ Internet of Things technologies to create an interesting, dynamic learning environment is crucial for the future of education. Incorporating Internet of Things (IoT) devices into the classroom allows teachers to provide a more individualized, collaborative learning environment that boosts student engagement and achievement.
