Effective E-learning utilizing Internet of Things

nowadays more people are considering education in the form of online degrees as e-Learning provides participants with additional freedom and compatibility so they can experience long distance education at any time. On the other hand, advances in network technologies has led to a new level of communication known as Internet Of Things (IOT) where every device is connected to the network, therefore all objects can communicate with each other. This has driven e-Learning to a whole new level as traditional approaches are no longer efficient. This paper discusses IOT based e-Learning in different aspects. Benefits of IOT in e-Learning are acknowledged along with the importance and necessity of IOT in this matter. Current challenges and possible solutions are discussed. It is concluded that in upcoming future IOT is the answer to adopting new technological advances in e-Learning. With appropriate infrastructure and implementation, educational institutions will highly benefit from IOT based online learning platforms.
