The trends in educational digitization demonstrate the growing incorporation of technology into teaching and learning methods, with pedagogical strategies tailored to the digital setting and the utilization of innovative technologies like artificial intelligence and virtual reality. This has resulted in a wide range of educational settings, ranging from conventional classrooms with technology integration to fully virtual environments. This has led to the development of hybrid models that blend in-person instruction with digital elements. Although these trends present potential to enhance the quality and accessibility of education, they also bring about obstacles such as the disparity in access to digital resources and the need for robust data security measures. These challenges must be addressed to guarantee that all students can fully reap the benefits of digital education.
Research on digitization in education is essential due to its profound impact on educational models, methods, and learning experiences. Investigating this subject allows understanding trends in how digitization affects access to education, learning quality, educational equity, and workforce preparedness. It is crucial to examine aspects such as the digital divide, the effectiveness of digital tools, pedagogical models for online teaching, and the psychosocial impacts of technological use. Various research methods can provide a comprehensive insight into these aspects. Furthermore, recent advancements focus on advanced educational technologies such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and data analysis to enhance student performance. In this perspective, researching strategies to close the digital divide and ensure equitable access to digital education is vital for understanding its impact, identifying challenges and opportunities, and developing effective strategies to enhance quality and equity in education in the digital age, leveraging recent technological and methodological advances.
