What are the emerging trends in education technology for 2018 and beyond?

As the end of 2017 approaches, we asked technology experts from RM Education to share their predictions for how they think education technology will evolve in 2018 and beyond. Here is what they had to say...

Pupils will expect seamless technology in school: As the drive for learning to more closely reflect life becomes greater, pupils will have higher expectations of the technology available to them in the classroom; they’ll expect it to be seamless, as it is in their homes and personal lives.
Toby Black, managing director

Peer-led support will form a key part of safeguarding: Peer-to-peer mentoring schemes are reinforcing positive and supportive behaviours, and helping pupils to take responsibility for their own online safety. Schools will start to make these schemes accessible to pupils from an earlier age, empowering future learners to be safe online.
Kat Howard, online safety lead
