Increase in online content development and digitization
“E-learning course providers are creating and delivering content based on the availability of innovative new technological tools, which have become a crucial part of online education or training systems,” says Jhansi Mary, one of the lead analysts at Technavio for education technology research.
Learning management system (LMS) and learning content management system (LCMS) are the most widely adopted platforms used to create, manage, deliver, and share e-learning content with users. Additionally, technologies such as LearnTrak and XpertLearning offers better space management on learner’s devices, m-learning, accessibility, and critical business information and learning materials, leading to increasing adoption.
Demand for cloud-based e-learning
E-learning platforms are witnessing exponential growth rates, leading educators to seek on-demand services for smooth integration of tools and technologies to improve the learning process. Cloud computing services have proved themselves as being highly advantageous due to its effective service model, leading to its increasing adoption in the virtual schools market to keep up with customer expectation and demand. Most organizations are shifting towards software as a service (SaaS)-based solutions due to their speed of implementation, lower capital expenditure, and a more secure socket layer connection. These advantages are leading to a swift penetration of virtual schools in the education sector.
Rise in custom learning methods
Virtual schools are becoming popular among the children of parents who prefer this innovative teaching tool due to lifestyle, geographic, or other family considerations. Also, students who pursue sports seriously find virtual schools as a welcome option due to the flexibility they obtain in their busy schedules.
“Currently, a large number of online courses are available in an ever-increasing number of virtual schools. Most courses are complemented by in-class work and hands-on practical training to help students excel in their respective areas of study,” says Jhansi.
