Privacy and Student Data During these pressing circumstances, many educators are curating and sharing digital tools, strategies, and tips for remote teaching with their networks. Educators should also use the Universal Design for Learning framework from CAST as a guide for creating inclusive educational experiences for remote learners.
The integration of digital tools such as interactive software, cloud-based platforms, and adaptivelearning systems has shifted traditional educational models towards more personalized, flexible, and engaging learning experiences. Moreover, edtech facilitates greater collaboration and communication.

These platforms use artificial intelligence to tailor lessons based on individual student progress and needs, making for a more effective and customized learning experience.

Furthermore, adaptivelearning platforms, like Khan Academy and Duolingo, cater to individual student needs, offering personalized learning paths and immediate feedback.
