Decoding the Future of Education.<br />

We are in the verge of an exciting change within the field of<br />

learning and teaching. Rising acceptance of the usage of<br />

technology as a tool for educational purposes is emerging<br />

and will eventually lead towards the disruption of education<br />

in a very fundamental level. <strong>The</strong> previously well-sealed<br />

doors of education governance are finally opening up to the<br />

real life challenges from the classroom. This adds to the<br />

worldwide connection capability and reachability of<br />

devices, creating an equation that sets the learning free.<br />

Our world has changed a lot within the past hundred years.<br />

<strong>The</strong> only thing that still remains true to its traditional<br />

practises is education. Some marginal change within the<br />

pedagogies used is happening, yet the essence of how<br />

teaching and learning is constructed lies its base to days<br />

when we were raising people into doers in industrialised<br />

workforce. <strong>The</strong> current day and the future behold so much<br />

more for its habitants than working in a certain cubicle from<br />

9-5. Technology is already liberating people from the<br />

offices to work anywhere with reasonable network<br />

connection. Next, technology can free students from being<br />

stuck in one room or building and take blackboard working<br />

method into 21st century possibilities of learning.<br />

Little by little companies and startups have taken baby steps<br />

to create platforms and content for digital education. Still,<br />

Education Technology remains “in the womb of its mother.”<br />

Luckily, the change has begun and now it relies on our<br />

actions to give the future of education the chance and the<br />

direction it is looking for. Once that snowball gets rolling,<br />

within the next few years, we will witness the hockey stick<br />

effect in the amount of different digital learning solutions<br />

available the market.<br />

One very fundamental tone I personally wish to see in this<br />

field of change is the rise of open source material available<br />

for everyone. When we are able to free ourselves from the<br />

restrictions of sharing knowledge, it is only then when we<br />

can truly talk about the freedom of learning. <strong>The</strong> value of<br />

some material interfering with the reality of spoken word,<br />

new data and knowledge arising from human experience,<br />

violates the academic rights of any student, anywhere in the<br />

world to learn, teach and participate in the evolution of<br />

education.<br />
