In the past few decades, the revolution of technology has significantly changed many aspects of our life (e.g. study, work, family activities, sales, marketing, etc.). Choose one aspect, use specific reasons and examples to support this statement.
To achieve today's vigorous growth and civilization, the world has had to go through three major Technological Revolutions with the appearance of machines that support humans largely in production labor. As a result, in a sharp increase in industrial output, with the advent of the working class that had a strong influence on the redistribution of the world, as well as the differentiation of, the demise of different social regimes. Until today, the world is entering an unprecedented revolution in history, with the magic combination of technology that makes the boundary between seemingly separate fields gradually become integrated and have a close connection with each other, bringing humanity to a new level of civilization - industrial revolution 4.0. This revolution has a strong impact on many areas of social life. In particular, it is indispensable for high-quality human resources that are the direct object of education-training. Thus, the importance of education and training to create human resources to meet the requirements of the 4.0 revolution is undeniable. This essay will discuss the influence of the application of technologies in education.
Education has changed over the centuries, from a range of knowledge to models and learning spaces. In the era of technology revolution 4.0, many traditional learning concepts have changed compared to the past, opening up a broader and more flexible educational perspective.
To begin with, the expanded learning objective is the first change. In the first technological revolution, the learning objective is to master basic knowledge and skills. For example: at school, learners learn knowledge of maths, languages, arts ...; in skill training, it is possible to train basic skills such as reading, arguing ...With the era of 4.0, education is the development of the whole person across multiple intelligences such as emotional, intellectual, social… and so on. If previously only one intelligence was recognized as a logical, modern society recognized multiple intelligence such as emotion, movement, language ... From there, the educational objective is directing to help each person maximize his hidden intelligence.
Also, the roles of educators change from the expert to the facilitator. Students in the 4.0 world have the capacity and means to receive information. In this context, teachers are not the only ones who gain valuable knowledge and information. Instead, they are helping students to understand the meaning of information, distinguish the difference between what is important and not important. Above all, it is the ability to combine information into a broad picture of the world.
For instance, Mr. Le Hoang Viet - mentor of FUNiX Online University, said that today's knowledge can be taught by itself, from research and reference from various sources, especially from the Internet. He said, "The traditional method of teacher-centered training, all knowledge is transmitted through teachers and usually, they are the ones who decide whether or not the knowledge is right. Today, teachers educating learner-centered, teachers based on students' learning needs to evoke and direct more than imparting knowledge. "
The third change is the learner experience. It transfers from “Factory Model” to “Custom Model”. It means that instead of being passive, structured, directed, and en masse as in the past, we have to be active, self-directed, and exploratory. The role of the teacher changes so does the learner. Learning in the past is often passive. Learners primarily participate in pre-built education programs, which have a common pattern for the majority and access to one-way knowledge. Today, according to the requirements of modern education, learners are forced to increase the initiative, the ability to self-direct the knowledge they need, and build their own learning pathways as required by each individual. For example, Anant Agarwal - CEO of edX predicts future university degrees will be personalized based on each person's needs. "Instead of spending the same four years pursuing the same university degree, students can create their own degrees that match their own strengths," Agarwal said.
The fourth is the change target age. Traditional education in the world focuses on the K-12 group - the age of pre-school children to the end of high school. After the K-12 stage, adult learners choose an early career pathway. Education in era 4.0 has expanded the learning age through the concept of "lifelong learning". Therefore, learning cannot be confined to school age. Learners need to have lifelong learning ability, constantly updating knowledge and knowledge to keep up with the constantly changing work requirements in society 4.0.
The next change is expertise. It changes the concept from "Teachers Know Best" to "Anyone Can Teach". Besides, the concept of "teacher" has also changed a lot in modern times. While teachers just used to teach in the past, today, with the help of technology, anyone can participate in the educational cycle and become a teacher. For instance, FUNiX online university with more than 2,700 mentors - experts working at many companies and technology corporations is an example. When students ask questions online, experts in each field connect directly with students to guide learning. Most mentors are not teachers or professional instructors but they are engaged in jobs with the role of a teacher. Mentors when participating in teaching at FUNiX, besides taking advantage of their free time to earn more income, they also satisfy the passion of being a teacher, sharing knowledge for students ", said Mr. Nguyen Thanh Nam Founder of FUNiX said.
Last but not least, Instead of physical schools with lecture halls, libraries, and fixed schedules, online schools are growing and becoming a new wave of education. Online schools such as Coursera, Udemy, edX ... or in Vietnam are FUNiX using cloud computing technology to develop online learning spaces. Study materials, reference books are stored online. Through internet-connected devices such as smartphones, laptops ... learners around the world can participate in virtual classes at any time. Students in 4.0 should therefore not necessarily gather attendance at the lecture halls. For instance, Mr. Tran Van Thanh - A 40-year-old passenger car - FUNiX student, who takes advantage of the break on the South-North route to learn to program on his phone.
To sum up, the Technological Revolution is bringing people many advantages and strong strides in the search for new and suitable educational methods for learners. At the same time, it also poses many challenges for educators, especially in developing countries with weak educational backgrounds like Vietnam. According to many comments, we are talking too much about The Revolution of technology, but the fact that universities and the education sector need to do is still a problem. However, this revolution is still taking place day by day, hour by hour, and will certainly impact education as well as employers. On the side of employers, instead of criticizing the quality of the student's output, their work is to actively cooperate with the schools. Employers, including small and medium-sized businesses, not just large corporations, consider this their responsibility to the future of the country. It is the practical experience with the business environment, regardless of size, that will help students to grow and apply the knowledge they have learned for the tasks to be done.
