Inaugural Session: Education 4.0 to 5.0: A transformational shift in the education system

Technology is a tool to add value and make education more effective. In a scenario where there is a huge transformation in the education sector with the rapid technological advancements, we are gradually transitioning from Education 4.0 to Education 5.0.
Education 5.0 isn’t about using less or more technology; it’s about making informed, responsible decisions while keeping the overall picture in mind. Privacy, ethics, security, and technological mindfulness are all given specific consideration in Education 5.0. It equips students for lifetime learning and establishes the groundwork for a variety of abilities that extend far beyond digital literacy. The goal of Education 5.0 is to transform the current educational system into one that is centred on action and outcomes. Despite repeated attempts to offer proper training, evaluation, and related assistance, the actual figures of employable graduates each year are alarming. As a result, the gap between corporate organizations’ actual needs and the intellectual human capital developed and supplied continues to widen. To propel discussion on this, the eminent higher education leaders and industry experts emphasized on the topic at ArdorComm- Higher Education and EdTech Conclave & Awards 2022, Pune on 6^th May 2022.

Inaugural Session:- Education 4.0 to 5.0: A transformational shift in the education system

Panel 1: How effective is the emotional intelligence in the cognitive learning experience of students?

Understanding and controlling our emotions increases our chances of succeeding both in personal and professional life. In fact, studies have shown that emotional intelligence is almost as crucial to academic success as cognitive intelligence and a conscientious attitude. Emotional intelligence plays a crucial role in the cognitive learning experience of students. For topics like English, history, drama, and the creative arts where we need to comprehend or even control human emotions, emotional intelligence is very important. Understanding a character’s goals and emotions fast makes interpreting a book or acting in a part much easier. We may develop great relationships with our professors and classmates by using emotional intelligence. These connections can have a significant impact on our academic performance. To propel discussion on this, the eminent higher education leaders and industry experts emphasized on the topic at ArdorComm- Higher Education and EdTech Conclave & Awards 2022, Bengaluru on 15^th July 2022.

The government’s vision of a digital university that would reach all students in the country and provide personalised instruction at their doorstep should be seen as a landmark step in Indian education. Minister of Finance, Nirmala Sitharaman announced the creation of a Digital University in the Union Budget 2022. It will provide students across the country with access to world-class universal education with a personalised learning experience. This will be offered in a variety of Indian languages and ICT formats. The goal of Digital University is to expand access to high-quality higher education programmes by utilising cutting-edge ICT tools and platforms. Digital University is presented as a hub and spoke model, with Digital University serving as the hub and numerous top higher education institutions from throughout the country serving as spokes. Under its umbrella or in partnership with the spokes, Digital University will provide programmes at the degree, diploma, and certificate levels.

Panel 3: Professional mentoring with skill development and multidisciplinary approach: A robust education eco-system

The last few decades of technological advancements have altered every part of the workplace, resulting in significant shifts in employer skill expectations. The implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 will be a key factor in the overall endeavour to equip our manpower to lead the transition in this rapidly evolving work culture. The NEP emphasises a more holistic approach rather than the typical content-heavy and rote-learning strategy. In addition to science and mathematics, it advocates for a creative and diverse curriculum that incorporates humanities, sports and fitness, languages, culture, arts and crafts. Soft skills like communication, cooperation, teamwork, and resilience are recognised as ‘life skills’.
This new approach is intended to assist students in combining academic expertise with critical leadership qualities that will aid them in their career path. Here, NEP 2020 breaks the mould by providing a broader cross-sectional selection of courses rather than categorising topic choices under the usual buckets of science, business, and humanities. Instead of following a rigid course selection procedure, it suggests a trend toward competence-based learning, which helps students strengthen their basic competencies. To propel discussion on this, the eminent higher education leaders and industry experts emphasized on the topic at ArdorComm- Higher Education and EdTech Conclave & Awards 2022, Pune on 6^th May 2022.

Panel 4: How the new age technologies like AI, ML, IoT are changing India’s higher education landscape?

Artificial Intelligence (AI), a term frequently used in science fiction, is becoming more widely recognised as it becomes more integrated into our daily lives. Another area where AI technology has enormous potential is education. In fact, AI innovation in education has progressed from idealised laboratory scenarios to more complicated real-world learning scenarios. AI’s ability to Ingest data from multiple sources, interrogate it, and derive insights using tools like predictive analytics and machine learning, is what makes it such an exciting advancement in education technology, and why its use will prove transformative for all stakeholders, from individual students to Ministries of Education. AI allows for the creation of a customised or individualised learning path for each learner, one that is unique to them and tailored to their skills, weaknesses, talents, and challenges. Advanced analytics, machine learning, IoTs have a ton of potential for the development of social and emotional learning abilities because they allow educators to personalise instruction and analyse both qualitative and quantitative data to help students acquire these skills. This way these new age technologies are changing India’s higher education landscape. Educators can create engaging, immersive educational experiences by effectively utilising AI, IoT, Data & Analytics, and Machine Learning.
