Emerging Technologies in Global South Classrooms: Teachers Imagining Future of Education
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, robots, and virtual reality, are reshaping our world, and driving educational transformations globally, revolutionizing traditional learning. Existing research has pointed out the need to address emerging technologies as part of computational empowerment of children. However, there is little research of computational empowerment of children from teachers’ perspective so far. Based on data from workshop with public school teachers in India, we advocate for an organized integration of smart technologies with an ethical emphasis in the curriculum. Furthermore, we delve into educators' perspectives, exploring their aspirations, needs, challenges, and concerns, offering insights into the future of education.
