Challenges in Education During Digital Transformation

Education is considered as the pulse of society and one of the most powerful tools for transforming a nation. In an ever-evolving world, it is perceived that education is one of the highly effective approaches for promoting sustainable development and has consistently been demonstrated as a great force for positive change within societies. With the tremendous changes, particularly under the context of the development of intelligent technologies and digital transformation, unpredictability, complexity, and insecurity of our current world, it is imperative to consider whether education can continue as usual. There is concrete evidence indicating that educators frequently face inextricable challenges that hinder the progress towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG4, which aims to promote quality, equity, and equality in education. Thus, it is necessary to understand the challenges in education, so that we can know the critical parts to work on when reforming education during digital transformation.
