Education 4.0 and the Emerging Education Trends



Every child is a born genius. He is gifted with potential in certain areas. He comes with a “right to earn a successful life,” and the education system must enable him to do so. In today’s new world of fast-changing technology and information overload, students need to be trained and not taught. Information needs to be made accessible and students need to learn how to find it rather than the teacher offering it to them in a rigid structure. Giving the workforce of tomorrow the tools to become active lifelong learners can create a diverse and pluralistic society where every person understands and plays to their strengths, building a fair and self-sustaining model for education rather than knowledge

Being the best International School Jodhpur, we at Vidhyashram International School understand that students are not alike, do not have the same starting point, can learn and absorb different areas of focus differently, and need to be guided to develop their skills rather than taught a set of predefined data points. Today education needs to align with and prepare students for the next industrial revolution which will happen in their lifetime. Therefore we as an institute have always explored and implemented what is best for our students.

The school is known for its impressive Board results and academic excellence in the entire region, the school, has opened its doors to diverse forms of learning to secure the best education for its students. State-of-the-art infrastructural facilities include an impressive multi-purpose auditorium, well-equipped Science labs, Resource Rooms, Social Science, Computer and Maths Labs which provide opportunities for ‘Learning by Doing’ enabling the students for the challenges of the modern technological age and global needs.

We all know how helpful it is to remember something that is taught visually to us rather than the one that is read through pages after pages. It is really beneficial for students to understand a chapter visually in class. The concept of smart class education is indeed a blessing to the students of the 21st Century, keeping this in account we at Vidhyashram International School are turning our all classrooms into smart classes. We firmly believe that technology is changing the way life functions and if it’s for the good, then why not go for it!

 Some of the emerging trends of Education 4.0 are summarized below:

Accelerated remote learning

This combines the best of both worlds – old and new. The students learn theoretical knowledge remotely, using digital means while practical skills are developed face to face as well as online as the industry is moving very rapidly and facing difficulties to bring students in one room. This equips students with a skill set that will help them overcome unprecedented situations – the likes of which they’ll face in the industry.

Project-based learning

To meet the growing demand in the industry for time management skills, organizational skills, and collaboration skills, Education 4.0 has come up with project-based learning or capstone project-driven approach. Projects are a great way to involve students deeply in the learning process and it gives them an incentive to learn the necessary skills, all the while keeping the learning process fun and interesting.

Easy and accurate assessment 

The old examination pattern where a student was expected to memorize the entire syllabus blindly is going to be replaced by a more practical method of assessment. Herein, besides theoretical knowledge, the students will be tested on projects and fieldwork.

One of  Top 10 schools of Jodhpur, Vidhyashram International School has always believed that no nation can grow or change for better till the educational institutes work in hand with the new vision of the government. Therefore when the NITI Aayog launched the Atal Innovation Mission, we at Vidhyashram International School also started with this flagship initiative which aims at fostering innovation and entrepreneurship among the youth. Education 4.0 will transform the teaching-learning experience forever and will produce students that are ready for the industry of the future.
