Recent Trends in Educational Technology and Administration: Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Educational Technology and Administration (Learning and Analytics in Intelligent Systems #31)
by Srikanta Patnaik Fred PaasThe management of an educational system is referred to as educational administration. It includes providing leadership for student education, establishing curriculum, carrying out assessments, and managing people and material resources to reach certain goals. It also includes the management of processes within a school system to ensure specific outcomes are achieved. Moreover, educational administration is critical because it allows schools to present opportunities for students to study. As technological advancements drive digital transformation and globalization, teachers may assist students in acquiring the technological skills needed to succeed in future careers. Also, the significance of integrating technology in education administration is to efficiently reach more students and facilitate customized learning through MOOCs, Virtual classrooms, video courses and augmented reality (AR) etc. It not only helps in imparting education but also helps in monitoring the student performance by collecting respective data. This book approaches Educational Technology & Administration while keeping in view these requirements.
