Post-Pandemic Digital Education: Investigating Smart Workspaces within the Higher Education Sector

Human collaborations have been challenging with increased dependence on traditional human computer interaction technologies during the pandemic, especially in the education sector. Where conventional learning spaces have not been effective, opportunities have arisen for novel digital innovations to develop a future-proof more realistic learning environment. In the era of post-pandemic digital living, a hybrid approach incorporating Internet of Things and augmented reality will transform future classrooms into highly immersive and collaborative learning spaces. This paper examines smart workspaces within the Higher Education sector and presents an energy efficient, future proof, and collaborative framework for smart learning environments.
