“…This is a fairly recent field of research and, thus, there are some challenges linked to smart education that need further study. According to Martín, Alario-Hoyos and Kloos [196], some of these challenges are linked to connectivity, with the possibility and speed of communication; security and privacy of data; prediction systems that enable the adoption of successful corrective measures for the success of the learning process; and efficiency in the data visualization of both teachers and students.…”

The digitalization of societies, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, is an unstoppable process. This paper seeks to answer the question: what post-COVID-19 digital competences are needed for a sustainable society? It also aims to analyze the digitalization processes in education for shaping a sustainable digital society. A bibliographic search was performed on some of the most relevant international databases of scientific literature and the selected documents were analyzed through a content analysis. It is concluded that digital education has experienced a strong increase, reinforced by COVID-19, shaping the digital presence in all dimensions of life. However, it is not sufficient to assume that the new generations are naturally engaged in and can master digital social sustainability. The results demonstrate the importance of literacy and the unavoidable promotion of sustainability in a digital society. However, this digitalization of the educational process poses several challenges: it requires both software and hardware conditions, as well as digital literacy as a result of a complex of literacies. It also implies that teachers and students change their standpoints and practices with the attainment of new teaching and learning competences in order to fight the digital divide and to foster the widest possible social inclusion for the promotion of sustainable society—digitainability.

“…As time passes, there is a growing number of papers published on the subject, noting the papers published in 2019 refer only to the first nine months. In so doing, since there is no formal definition for SE, much remains to be researched [26].…”

“…Given the dimensions noted by [4,17], it has been observed that there is mounting literature presented on the smart learning environment (SLE) and smart pedagogy dimensions. The reviewed literature focused on the historical background of the SLE, environment's design, the technology available, the pedagogy applied, students' behavior, and perception towards such an environment [19,26]. Firstly, a brief synopsis of the historical backdrop of SLE shows that it began in the 20th century in Educational Psychology with behavioral psychologists who used conditioning to explain behavioral adaptation.…”

“…Secondly, present-day SLE studies provide practical and useful information on how technology selection can transform courses, technology in education can determine learning styles, and technology can transform a school's environment [26]. For example, in a study conducted by [28], the intelligent selection of courses for pedagogies in SE was assessed in-depth.…”

Due to the novelty of the smart education phenomenon, a quantitative investigation of the variables that will influence the implementation of ‘smart education’ was needed. Therefore, based on a probability simple random survey of 349 Grenadian employees from tertiary institutions in the education industry, the influence of leadership and human resource capacities on smart education were investigated. Results produced from SPSS analysis software and Smart PLS revealed that leadership and human resources capacities have sufficient confidence to have a significant influence on smart education, producing a positive association with ‘smart education.’ However, this relationship is positively moderated by additional investments, such as infrastructural innovation. These findings enrich the current literature on smart education (SE) by increasing knowledge of the phenomenon through the lenses of the Actor-Network Theory and Technology Adoption Model. Accordingly, policymakers should bear these findings in mind when developing holistic strategies to guide SE’s successful enactment.

Today’s education system has brought much advancement in using digital tools to reach the students learning and understanding in simple method of representation. In this global pandemic situation, most of the educational institutions all around the globe have switched over to digital mode of operation that is remote based learning approach. In conventional system of education, students have faced lot of pressures in listening to the normal mode of class room teaching during direct interaction, but online or remote based education learning has given some pace and flexibility to visualize the concepts as well as process much better than normal black board teaching style. Through digital mode, we can able to improve much better in presenting the concepts through video simulation in lesser time span, where as in old or traditional method of education, teacher has to put more effort in teaching the concepts to students. But today’s students are less attentive in nature. They can only able to see visually through graphics only, because that kind of education students prefer. In this paper, an attempt has been made to conduct survey through forms by collecting opinions from various respondents within the educational institutes in India. Based on the responses, business framework model is developed to implement in the real system.
