Technology has become an indispensable part of our lives. Right from what we eat to what we learn, technology has a poignant role to play in every domain. Moreover, while in the pre-pandemic world technology was always there as the backbone of different processes, in the post pandemic world it has taken center stage. As a result, today concepts like E-learning and cloud kitchen do not fascinate us anymore and have literally become a way of life.
The education industry has adopted technology in a big way which has even led to the emergence of a whole new EduTech industry. IPS Technology Services, which offers Custom software development, services in Michigan has been keeping a close tab on this trend and has professionals with the right skill stack ready to take up such development projects. IPSTS has already partnered with several educational institutions to create bespoke software to facilitate learning. And here’s how custom made software has benefitted the education sector and is playing an active role in shaping it.
Personalized Experience for the target audience:
When it comes to educational programs, learners always appreciate a personalized and intuitive experience and that can be facilitated only with the help of custom software. With such a personalized interface, the user experience is enhanced and educational institutions automatically get better enrollments into the course.
Enhanced brand identity:
With bespoke software in place, the educational institution can strengthen its brand identity by customizing the overall look and feel of the user interface. With the help of custom designed graphics, color scheme and presentation, the institution can ensure that the learners relate to the brand.
Cost Effective:
Although there are several off-the shelf software solutions available, custom made software is always more cost effective in the long run. While off the shelf products may need repeated investments on licenses, plug-ins and the overall management; custom software can be built as per the individual requirements. Moreover, professionals’ in-charge of the business application development are always there to implement changes and facilitate additions and integrations whenever the need arises.
Ease of managing content:
In the e-learning system as well as in regular schools and colleges, there is a recurrent need to present content and study material in a manner that is easily accessible and comprehensible. Recorded video lectures, PDF files, Images etc. need to be uploaded as the course progresses and custom made software facilitates content presentation in the most seamless manner. Besides, such software can also integrate cloud storage facilities so the systems are not burdened with heavy files and any content that the learner has access to can be easily retrieved as the need arises.
Immersive and interactive Learning Experience:
In today’s competitive EduTech industry, institutions offering an immersive and interactive learning experience are definitely preferred over those that do not have such provisions. Educational institutions looking to enrich their learners’ experience can always take the help of custom made software in order to facilitate better learning outcomes.
Ease of Tracking:
Educational institutions of all kinds can leverage custom software in order to keep a track of their learners, staff, schedules as well as payments. This way they can not only manage their day-to-day functions smoothly, also maintain clear and transparent communication with the stake holders.
Custom made educational software has given educational institutions the freedom to explore different avenues of the teaching-learning process with ease. Availability of such bespoke software has also empowered educators with the right tools and resources so they can align the educational systems with the demands of the 21st century learners.
