Education Challenged by Technology

Teaching will be totally different in the future. Evaluation of people will be totally different. Universities will be totally different. The reason is the progress of technology.
What we understand by technology is more than just using a computer. The progress in the area of telecommunication (increased bandwidth, storage space, reduced communication costs, 100% accessibility to the far corners of the world and also the progress in translation programs, video editing, converting text to spoken language and vice versa) are aspects of technological progress that will make teaching more interesting, smoother, more efficient and more robust.
However, not only the technology will progress. Our human society will start realizing that acquiring knowledge is no longer required as before. What do we need to learn?
We need to be able to intervene much quicker if someone drops out somewhere. We have to deal more efficiently with the very large volume of new topics. We have to ask ourselves what it means if the language and distance barriers have disappeared within twenty years. We have to make education more consistent with the needs of the economy and with the expectations of the individual.
Above all, we have to bring the technology very close to the person, so that it is a relief of the work for the teacher and for the student a personal coach, who follows up to the second how his progress is, so that the teacher only has to follow the main lines.
First, we describe what is expected of an individual, because without taking this into account, progress will be limited and technology will be successful only in the professional world and the games industry. After that we explain how technology can be used.
The technology is not yet mature today and some who already give their opinion might prefer that this continues. Because why change? It is my opinion that some weaknesses of both the printed book and the way of judging can be corrected by making the technology work in the right way. I have developed a proposal to show that it is possible. That it will be processed somewhat differently within twenty years is not important. I would like to see a consciousness emerge that the evolution cannot be stopped and must not be held back, because we will be amazed at the results achieved even though we can only partly predict them today.
It is a book to read critically, apply it to yourself and see many things differently. Would this method of using the technology be beneficial for you?
