EDUCATION APPS

• The education system has undergone a full-scale change in this COVID-19 crisis

with schools, colleges, and other classes suspended for an indefinite time. This

has led to the rise of e-learning and tutor apps in the market. A Statista

report reveals that home education in the USA has increased the education app

downloads by 1087 times between March 2 to 16, 2020. Some of the

estimations point towards the digital learning market worldwide to surpass 243

billion US dollars by 2022. With a fair number of faculties supporting the digital

study culture, homeschooling can be the new norm in the upcoming days. With

the exceptional progress in the mobile app development market, adapting to

remote teaching is as simple as ABC. Google Classroom, edX, Duolingo,

Photomath, and Udemy are some prominent education apps.
