Issues that we have noticed:

THERE IS ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT

Passiveness1

• Insufficient efficiency of the educational system1

• Not enough interest1

• Very small percentage of students that continue their studies1


Our starting hypothesis:

Each student has their own preference when it comes to education

The goal of education is to acquire permanent and practical knowledge which can be used and connected to other areas

Professors and teachers don't have enough time to dedicate themselves to individual students

Workshops and classes could be much more efficient by introducing technology into them

Technology is seeping into classrooms and the education process

How can YTM – Classroom 2020 contribute to solving these issues:

Student motivation Professor doesn't have enough time

Students who underperform and

their needsSystem inefficiency

Frequent testing enabled and the introduction of

multimedia content

The system gathers data about

students and creates reports

Adjusting the level of help and elating

the professor's time

The application does most of the

tiresome processes for the professor

The student is expecting a test and

is paying more attention in class

The system adapts according to an

individual student

The student can acquire great help from the system

Professors can dedicate themselves

to upgrading their lectures

Potential Issues and Solutions


Potential Issues and Suggested Solutions

Professors are unwilling to use technology

Notifications – privacy problems

Infrastructure

Different needs of different institutions

Documented and video tutorials, PowerPoint

presentations and

Working in a closed university network

Possibility of organizing training for application

users

Possibility of adjusting the system

Functionalities can be modified according to user

demands


Conclusion


How We See the Future of Education

Automatized processes so the professors can

focus on improving their

classes.

Constant information

exchange and use of feedback.

Teaching program that adapts to

individual capabilities of each student.
