Online learning can become much more efficient thanks to student data analysis and tracking educational progress.

It is worth noting that digital technologies are developing along with how students grow up and change. Thus, the Internet has already become an integral part of their daily school life.

Just transferring lessons to the Internet did not get the desired result. To improve the effectiveness of online education, it is necessary to expand the ways of sharing information, as well as implement new methods.

Specially designed programs will also be able to help teachers to grade using a set of specific criteria. The development and widespread implementation of smart technologies will help as well to eliminate cheating on online exams.
