Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends, drivers, and challenges that are expected to shape the market during the forecast period. North America dominates the global K-12 instruction material market as this region spends comparatively more on instruction materials. The major factors that are contributing to the growth of the market in this region are the modest student enrollment rates resulting in the establishment of more schools, the implementation of modern technology devices in schools, and new standards and test implementation in schools. This surge in content digitization has made the learning process easier for both teachers and students.
Moreover, with the increase in investment in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in K-12 institutions, publishers that were initially into only printed books are now partnering with institutions to offer digital products through different modes. Pearson, for instance, offers e-books through its own e-book platform, Pearson e-text. The company has also collaborated with players, such as CourseSmart, VitalSource, and Kortext, for the distribution of their e-books. The cumulative influence of all these developments will reflect the sustained market growth in the region during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the curriculum segment will be significant during the forecast period. The K-12 curriculum instruction material segment is expected to grow due to the rise in demand for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects and language learning, mainly from schools based out of emerging countries, such as India and China.

The curriculum segment was the largest and was valued at USD 10,793.67 million Further, with the emergence of adaptive learning software, teachers can assess the students' learning difficulties on a real-time basis. The analytics involved in the software enables them to assess the performance of each student individually. Based on the level of complexity and the type of content that the students can absorb, teachers can mould the learning curriculum and assessment processes. To capitalize on the unmet demand, few vendors are developing solutions that provide language support, as this will increase their credibility and lead to higher adoption in schools. Thus, the increased benefit of the curriculum segment will drive the growth of the global K-12 instruction material market in the digital instruction materials segment during the forecast period.in 2018.

The emergence of virtual classroom training is an emerging trend shaping market growth. The global K-12 instruction material market is going through a transition with the growing adoption of virtual classrooms. The virtual classroom is a virtual learning environment for the end-users to collaborate and learn in an online setting, which is achieved through video conferencing. The market is witnessing this gradual shift from structured and scheduled training events to virtual classrooms owing to benefits such as the non-restricting nature of virtual classrooms (users can attend the classes from anywhere), cost-efficiency, and wider geographical accessibility. One of the major advantages of this kind of training module is that it can be deployed for small-scale teams or even for a couple of individuals, which is not possible in physical classrooms.
Moreover, in this virtual classroom, instructors can present live screens, share files, stream high-definition (HD) videos, and allow students to showcase their work. Recordings of classes, with a searchable audio transcript, will be available to students for review after the live instruction. This will allow the company to offer breadth and quality solutions in the global K-12 instruction material market. Therefore, the emergence of virtual classroom training will drive the growth of the global K-12 instruction material market during the forecast period.
Unauthorized copying and distribution of textbooks is a significant challenge hindering market growth. Instruction materials contain certain intellectual property delivered through a variety of media, including both digital and print textbooks. The publishers rely on several combinations of copyright, trademarks, patents, and proprietary rights against unauthorized copying and distribution of their textbooks. As the industry is in the transition from print content to digital content, the copying and illegal distribution of content and other infringements of intellectual property are likely to increase.
Further, the increase in the scale of unauthorized copying and distribution or inability to protect intellectual property would adversely impact sales and hamper revenues, as well as the competitive advantage of the companies. Thus, the unauthorized copying and distribution of textbooks will hamper the growth of the global K-12 instruction material market during the forecast period.
