Technology in the Classroom Is Gateway to a Brighter Future

The learning experience of today has evolved as we have moved to a more connected and tech-savvy society – so much so that the global education technology and smart classroom market is forecasted to grow by more than $50 billion over the next five years, according to a recent study by Research and Markets.
