Outside the classroom, technology has played and continues to play an important role in delivering education to students. Information and communication technology in education is playing a critical role in offering new and innovative kinds of support to instructors, students, and the learning process in general.

The COVID-19 outbreak forced schools and colleges to close all throughout the world. According to data from UNESCO, over 1.5 billion students were absent from schools and universities around the world. As a result, education has altered considerably, with the emergence of e-learning, which involves teaching remotely and through digital platforms. With the advancement of technology and the start of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, society, as well as the professional world, have continued to evolve and change.
As a result, there has been a significant impact on the educational environment, giving rise to a variety of rising educational trends. Educators must keep up with the current innovations and critical aspects that affect learning in the classroom in order to appropriately engage their pupils. They can use their knowledge of these trends to design more effective learning environments. The ed-tech sector ruled 2021 much like its predecessor 2020 and will only pave the way for a more technologically sound and savvy 2022 for education.

Many ERP software is now focussing more and more on coming up with innovative ways to analyse and manage student performances on their platform.
