Smart Learning: 3 Seriously Exciting Educational Innovations

Published on

The constant influx of innovative technologies and solutions has been promoting the transformation of the education sector. Smart learning or eLearning aren’t merely fancy phrases taking over the educational landscape. These educational innovations enable learning in various positive ways. Here’s MedCerts Partner Solution’s insight into 3 seriously impressive advances that are the hallmark of modern-day learning. 

Artificial Intelligence 

The worldwide value of AI learning is projected to reach $90 billion by 2025. One noticeable improvement this innovation is bringing is personalized learning. Students have different strengths and weaknesses, which may be difficult to identify through conventional classroom methods. This innovation promotes customized learning experiences through adaptive software. AI-based tutoring systems are also becoming a popular way of reinforcing learning. 

Professors also benefit from using AI-based tools to automate academic processes like marking exams and grading. The innovation saves time, allowing instructors to focus on other important areas that improve their students’ learning outcomes. MedCerts’ 12 Elements of eLearning also leverage AI during scenario-based teaching to create safe, engaging experiences.

Simulated Software Application

Immersive learning models like Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are gradually carrying a stronger role in traditional education systems. VR describes a computer-generated environment that learners can explore and interact with. As a student, you become part of the environment and can perform different actions to manipulate objects, which improves learning effectiveness by more than 75% compared to conventional learning. 

AR technology superimposes computer-aided images onto the physical, real-world setting, improving your overall experience of reality. The most common types of AR are:

  • Projection-based that sheds light onto a physical object, creating an interactive real-time dashboard.
  • Location-based which provides users with extra info depending on their geolocation
  • Superimposition-based that allows users to partially or completely replace real images by adding new elements to the viewpoint. 

In terms of teaching methods, this innovation uses closed and open learning systems.

  • In an open learning system, the student utilizes AR technology to improve every day studying with context-driven algorithms. AR adds value to the program by identifying the right time to showcase contextual info related to the subject under study.
  • The closed learning system involves using VR headsets to enjoy interactive studying. At MedCerts healthcare training, we incorporate it to allow learners to partake in virtual medical procedures, ensuring a hands-on, safe approach.

Game-Based Learning

This smart instructional technique involves using gaming elements to engage students and improve their knowledge. Games, despite seemingly playful, are often immersive. They allow players to experiment, receive immediate feedback and interact with other players. 

When used properly like at MedCerts, students can grasp complex concepts and develop real-world soft skills like problem-solving and critical thinking. Games used in learning vary from traditional board games to digital gaming solutions available on mobile devices, consoles and desktops. 

The revolutionary digital gaming solutions are adaptable to different learning styles. They aim to improve cognitive skills like pattern recognition and memory retention, enhancing learning outcomes.
