Didactic methods based on computer games are included in the new education 4.0. Therefore, education systems should be improved in such a way as to make the most of the techniques known for the current technological progress known as Industry 4.0.
On the other hand, as part of the technological revolution of Industry 4.0, other technologies are also being developed that should be effectively implemented into modern education tools so that education systems can be improved and adapted to new technologies that are currently being dynamically developed and implemented in industry. In addition, these new technologies Industry 4.0 should also enrich the work of scientists in research laboratories of universities and schools. Scientific research conducted in the field of new technologies, innovations, etc. should also be correlated with Industry 4.0.
Apparently, we are now living in the era of the fourth technological revolution, known as Industry 4.0.
The previous three technological revolutions:
1. The industrial revolution of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, determined mainly by the industrial application of the invention of a steam engine.
2. Electricity era of the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century.
3. The IT revolution of the second half of the twentieth century determined by computerization, the widespread use of the Internet and the beginning of the development of robotization.
The current fourth technological revelation, known as Industry 4.0, is motivated by the development of the following factors:
- artificial intelligence,
- cloud computing,
- machine learning,
- Big Data database technologies,
- Internet of Things.
On the basis of the development of these IT instruments and technologies, business analytics of companies such as Business Intelligence and the above-mentioned areas have been dynamically developing in recent years.
The technological revolution described as Industry 4.0 is progressing more and more dynamically. The reforms in the school system should follow this progress, so that modern education 4.0 would be fully adapted and correlated with the progress of Industry 4.0.
The technological revolution Industry 4.0 is carried out so quickly that education systems and fields of study, teaching methods are adapted to these changes often with a significant delay.
On the other hand, research conducted in research centers at universities should support the creation of new innovations in technological solutions for the needs of industry 4.0.
Therefore, the education system should be improved in such a way as to create as much synergy and correlation as possible between the current technological revolution of Industry 4.0 and the reformed systems of new education 4.0.
One of these areas of new teaching techniques are the above-mentioned computer games. In many training centers, for example in the field of training pilots, drivers, cosmonauts, aircraft controllers, etc., simulators that technologically use modern computer games are used. Computer games should therefore be used in the process of improving didactic techniques in education systems 4.0.
Therefore, I am asking you with the following query: Can computer games be used in the process of improving teaching techniques in 4.0 education systems?
Please, answer, comments. I invite you to the discussion.
