Slow or special needs learners have unlimited, free access to special materials and live support. Colleges and universities also have disappeared or have partnered with industry and government units to provide online, post-compulsory education and vocational courses. These merged organizations now compete for a share in an international education market. Most of the old examination validation bodies are obsolete. Private companies, which provide global education and training with a brand name and market identity, evaluate their own products against governmental regulations and international standards.
Brokers use a search engine to filter the range of possible course products for any given learner.
They then consult the national database, which cross-references every student's attainment records, known learning aptitudes, and educational preferences with required learning objectives and with the product data of participating course software providers. They also produce fast learning outcomes because they automatically tailor themselves to the learner's optimum learning profile. Artificial intelligence software continually monitors the learner's actions. The software's analysis of learning patterns and assessment data shows marked differences in the learning strategies, problem-solving techniques, and stimulus requirements of males and females. It adjusts for these differences and thus, with newly developed gender-specific online teaching materials, improves the performance of all pupils.
