Come to think of it; education has experienced mind-boggling transformation, brought on by various technologies, such as artificial intelligence, big data, and mixed reality among several others. However, one name has had an especially pronounced impact on the education sector: Machine learning. A recent Technavio report projects that the global investment in ML-driven online learning will grow with a CAGR of over 16 percent by 2021.

For example, it can help save time — according to a McKinsey report; technology can help teachers save as many as 13 hours in a week. These time savings can then be channelled to achieve better outcomes. It also helps take the burden of busywork, especially the one stemming from administrative responsibilities. And not only that, machine learning and artificial intelligence have now come to play a crucial role in enabling the customization of teaching material and courses to help enhance the process's effectiveness.
Let’s take a closer look at some of ML's other benefits to the table for the education sector:
