DOI: 10.31673/2786-8362.2024.024816

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the key innovations of the 21st century, rapidly evolving.
Its various aspects, such as infrastructure, architecture, and security, play a crucial role in shaping the digital
future. The number of connected devices, known as IoT, is rapidly increasing. A reliable network and
application-based services are necessary to support the operation of these devices. The study explored the
architecture of IoT, highlighting its key features. The advantages of using the Internet of Things in
education were identified, namely: more efficient management of educational institutions, real-time data
collection, access control to information, interactive learning format, automation of organizational
processes, enhanced security, distance learning, improvement of the learning process through feedback,
individualized learning approach, support for students with special needs, health monitoring of students,
and optimization of resource management in educational institutions. The challenges of implementing the
Internet of Things in education were analyzed, and recommendations for overcoming them were provided.
In the context of the development of information and communication technologies, as well as social
progress, the Internet of Things is gaining increasing importance. The Internet of Things in education opens
up new opportunities for improving learning outcomes by creating a more interactive and individualized
experience, enhancing management efficiency, and providing real-time analytics for assessing student
performance. IoT opens up new opportunities for modernizing education and improving its quality.
However, to achieve success, it is necessary to overcome financial and technological barriers, including
ensuring data security and equal access to technology for all students.

Keywords: Internet of Things, IoT, architecture, information system, computer network, digital
