2. Our reliance on the internet and mobile devices has
brought on a 21st century digital learning movement in
today’s learning environments. Almost 60 percent of
technology leaders in education say that one quarter of
their school’s instructional materials are digital.
Furthermore, the rise of online learning, digitization of
education portals and statewide testing, as well as
demand for technology trends such as BYOD and cloud,
and more, have all contributed to the explosion of data
that educational institutions face today.
