2. Education sector
Using and learning on smart phones and computers is nothing new, since children these grow up surrounded by such gadgets since birth. Due to the pandemic though, many educational institutions have had to digitize the learning experiences they offer, with many using video-conferencing and VoIP to impart lessons and chapters to students remotely.
This presents several benefits to students and teachers. The first one is equity. Books and other study material can be prohibitively expensive. This is not the case with digital content that can be produced and shared inexpensively and easily.
Lessons can be better customized to a student’s aptitude, enabling them to learn better and be more productive, while examinations can be conducted online.
Documents such as marksheets and degrees can be issued online instantly, without requiring contact with students. Platforms such as DLT Labs’ DL Certify for example, enable the issuance and management of institutional grade sheets, marksheets or certificates. It also enables the management of student and employee data in the form of immutable transcripts and data records.
However, not everything is perfect. Many of the technologies needed to digitize classroom learning can have a learning curve and a cost attached to them.
Additionally, teaching remotely may require educators to adapt their teaching styles to make up for the lack of direct human to human connect.
Younger students, such as 12 year old children for example, may require a different learning style to fully benefit from a remote learning experience.
Schools and educational institutions may lack the experience or technical knowhow needed to effectively deploy and manage such software, tools and infrastructure to fully capitalize on the opportunities provided by learning digitally. These are some of the challenges institutions must overcome to continue being effective in this new landscape.
3. Corporate sector
Ever since lockdowns became widespread worldwide, a majority of the workforce has had to work remotely. Those who could not do so, unfortunately, could not continue working.
Working remotely has brought about new challenges for companies everywhere. These stem from issues of data security and privacy brought about by working remotely and from employees using their own devices. Companies have also had to invest in new communication tools to make remote team work and collaboration easier.
Business continuity plans have had to be updated to ensure enterprise infrastructure can function reliably, in this style of working environment.
