How should schools, colleges and universities take advantage of new technologies so that they do not lag behind technological progress?
In recent years, the world has been increasingly influenced by the ongoing fourth technological revolution. Industry 4.0, biotechnologies, green technologies, innovation, etc. are being developed. The development of information processing technologies in the era of the current technological revolution termed Industry 4.0 is determined by the development and growth of applications of ICT information technologies, internet technologies and advanced data processing. The current technological revolution defined as Industry 4.0 is determined by the development of the following technologies, analytical techniques, ICT solutions, etc. : learning machines, deep learning, artificial intelligence, smart technologies, Big Data Analytics, Data Science, cloud computing, machine learning, personal and industrial Internet of Things, Business Intelligence, autonomous robots, horizontal and vertical data system integration, multi-criteria simulation models, digital twins, additive manufacturing, Blockchain, cyber security instruments, Virtual and Augmented Reality and other advanced data processing technologies Data Mining. New technologies and innovations are emerging from research institutes, R&D centres, new technology development centres, technology companies, universities and other entities, among others. On the other hand, newly emerging innovations and technologies find new practical and business applications through their implementation in the various fields of activity of actors. Also schools, colleges and universities try to implement new technologies into their activities, so as not to lag behind the technological progress.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
How should schools, colleges and universities make use of new technologies so as not to lag behind the technological advances taking place?

You may find some answers in the document referenced below. Perhaps because it is not specific to the academic world and because it focuses mainly on learning about occupational risk prevention.

One significant direction of industry 4.0 is the mirroring of machines and processes in the digital world, also known as digital twins. There are many steps required in implementing this such as: 1. accurate sensors on the IIOT machines to provide input data for the digital twin, 2. IT infrastructure to transfer data, 3. accurate models/simulations that can accurately predict the machines behaviour. A cloud-based simulation tool can cover #2 and #3 at once, as there's no need for internal hardware and infrastructure to carry out the calculations. You can find more information about that in this webinar: https://www.simscale.com/webinars-workshops/digital-twin-summit/
