Abstract

In the modern world, we are facing with digitalization in all spheres of human life. Of course, digital technologies rapidly implemented in the education system. We can call this term Education 4.0 due to the school of thought that encourages non-traditional thinking when it comes to imparting education. Education 4.0 essentially uses technology-based tools and resources to drive education in non-traditional ways. Instead, with Education 4.0, you can have remote students that sign into their classrooms using the internet through modes like massive online open courses or video chat or dialling in through voice calls, to learn materials that are more dynamic in nature with peers who might or might not be learning at the same pace as them. At the present moment corporate and university circles understand that "Lifelong learning" has been not only a buzzword but vital objective for an opportunity to follow modern trends and stay competitive. An Unicon study reports that the number of corporate universities - which provide education in-house, on-demand, and, often, on the job - has exploded to more than 4,000 in the United States and more than twice that number worldwide. The first trend in the Education 4.0 is powerful trends reshaping the industry and fueling the emergence of the Personal Learning Cloud as a networked learning infrastructure. The second trend is the decline of standard classroom-based programs, such as those primarily offered by business schools and universities. The third trend is the rise of customizable learning environments, through platforms and applications that personalize content according to learners’ roles and their organizations’ needs. The dominant platforms now count millions of enrollees in individual courses and tens of millions of total users. These trends are linked and form a cohesive pattern. Our goal is to present these trends in Education 4.0 and the strategies, benefits and challenges of digital education.
