Education's Next Revolution <https://ela-newsportal.com/revolution-of-education/>  	

As a result of the pandemic, global education is now going through a period of ‘creative destruction’, as the sector is assailed by external and internal forces, which are nonetheless catalysing innovation. Teachers all around the world have been forced to learn new skills and adapt to a new environment, while technology is bringing new players into the EdTech sector to provide teachers with new ways to reach their students. These trends will continue to amplify the evolution of education. Companies seamlessly combining technology with learning will be the winners in the growing revolution in education. Educators, entrepreneurs, technologists and policy makers who want to reshape their education ecosystems would do well to read the advice offered here by Mayank Dhingra, Senior Education Business Leader, HP EMEA.
