Formation of the Concept of “Digital Education 4.0” in the Post-Pandemic Era

Abstract

Preparing the next generation of professionals is a shared mission of the whole society, requiring the shaping of the Digital Education 4.0 vision in the post-pandemic era. Training the next generation of professionals is a common mission of the whole society, which requires the formation of the concept of Digital Education 4.0 in the post-pandemic era. Digital Education 4.0 is a concept that reflects the transition of the educational system to a new era based on innovative technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0). This approach involves the active implementation of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, big data, virtual and augmented reality, as well as adaptive educational platforms that personalise the learning process. Digital Education 4.0 aims to create a resilient, inclusive, and flexible educational system capable of addressing diverse student needs and bridging geographical and socio-economic gaps. Furthermore, Digital Education 4.0 prepares students with future-ready skills, fostering digital literacy, critical thinking, and adaptability – essential competencies for a rapidly evolving workforce. In the post-pandemic world, where remote and hybrid learning models have become commonplace, Digital Education 4.0 provides a comprehensive framework to enhance engagement, accessibility, and educational outcomes across all levels of learning. This paper explores the foundational elements of Digital Education 4.0, its core technological components, and its potential to revolutionise education in the coming decades.
