North America Education Technology Market: Key Trends and Challenges
Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Trends
Growing inclination toward integrating AR, VR, and artificial intelligence (AI) in smart classrooms is the primary trend in the market. The ability of AR, VR, and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to create rich learning environments for students makes them the clearest choice for improving the overall educational experience for students and teachers. Schools across North America have begun integrating virtual reality into technical subjects, including STEM and social sciences.
Besides augmented reality and virtual reality, another important emerging technology that is attracting the attention of several players in the education sector is AI. AI is anticipated to help close the gap between students who are falling behind by paying attention to appropriate lesson plans. Therefore, the integration of these emerging technologies is expected to drive the growth of the North American education technology market during the forecast period.
Challenge
The availability of open-source learning content is a challenge that affects the growth of the market. Before the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, universities across North America offered large-scale open online courses to supplement in-person teaching and learning. Due to the pandemic, the North American economy was directly affected. Therefore, reopening educational institutions in North America is quite difficult. This means that students from poorer families without internet access are more likely to be denied education, broadening already deep educational inequalities.
Moreover, online education needs to become more inclusive, which has led to the growth of open-source learning content. Universities and institutes offer these courses for free or charge a very minimal fee. This has increased the number of students opting for free courses or open-source learning content to upskill themselves educationally, which in turn, is anticipated to impede the growth of the market during the forecast period.
