Today's classrooms are digital classrooms first, whether in place or extended through e-learning platforms, and are being fed by information and content repositories. While the need to deliver education online was accelerated with the global pandemic, it is not expected to slow down anytime soon. From nursery school to post-graduate and continuing education organizations, technology and connectivity are moving at an increasing pace as innovation is proving to dramatically impact learning outcomes.
This widespread adoption of technology, including real-time Collaboration tools, has completely changed how teachers teach and students learn, with many educational institutes looking at technology as an opportunity to build teaching methods and connect with students efficiently.
Primary and secondary schools adopting digital tools and enable real-time collaboration
At the primary and secondary levels, 93 percent of teachers are using digital tools to help guide instruction, with 56 percent believing data and digital tools make them a better teacher.
Primary and secondary schools are investing not only in equipment for computer labs and connected classrooms but in applications enabling students and teachers to collaborate in real-time, to connect classrooms in different locations and even countries and cultures, to support distance learning, and to reflect the environment the children are being prepared to succeed in. This saves time and money for the teachers while also benefiting the students' education, as student tasks and instructions can be tailored based on individual needs.
K-12 is not the only grades integrating technology into their educational experience, with colleges and universities around the world have been completely transforming their public spaces, libraries, classrooms, and labs into hyperconnected and increasingly immersive learning and collaboration environments.

Additionally, universities, both public and private, are embracing initiatives focused on securing campuses from terrorism and other violent acts and ensuring students and faculty's safety have driven the adoption of Internet-based security and surveillance networks, as well as mobile applications that keep the community connected and alerted in times of distress.
