Surge in Student Mobility Driving the Market
The global smart classroom market is majorly driven due to rising student mobility globally, which refers to the rate of students that leave their home countries to pursue education in other countries. This trend is majorly seen in Asia Pacific. According to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), more than 5 million students left their home countries in pursuit of higher education in 2015. In 2016, Malaysia had about 172,886 international students studying in higher education institutions, international and private schools, and other language centers. The Government of Malaysia has announced plans to attract about 250,000 international students under its initiative Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015-2025 (Higher Education) by 2025.
The Philippines follows a similar trend. Enrolment of foreign students in the education system in the Philippines has been increasing steadily. According to the Bureau of Immigration statistics, around 7700 international students were studying in the country in 2011. The number increased to 26,000 in 2013, 61,000 in 2014, and to 210,000 in 2016. Rise in inbound mobility is helping economies gauge the right talent to improve economic development. Thus, education institutions are encouraged to adopt smart school solutions to enhance education offerings and attract international students, thus boosting the smart classroom market.
