Educationists should upgrade to student-centric approach in the era of high-end technology, says tech firm chief

Knowledge power is the biggest asset of India. “If we can harness the knowledge power of the 1.4 billion people of this country, the result will be amazing,” said founder Chairman and Board member, Cyient, B.V.R. Mohan Reddy.

Addressing the inaugural session of the 36th Foundation Day celebrations of the Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) on Saturday, Mr. Reddy said the responsibility of educationists at this point had become much larger. Speaking at length about the 21st century education and the emerging trends, he said changes brought about by technology disruptions would be bigger than the 2008 financial meltdown and the COVID-19 outbreak.

Referring to the artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, he said the world will change in the next few years and computers, communications, sensors and algorithms will usher in this change.
