By promoting student involvement, increasing administrative effectiveness, and developing intelligent learning environments, the Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the education industry. Smart classrooms, interactive whiteboards, and real-time attendance systems are just a few examples of IoT-powered gadgets that are enhancing accessibility and customization in education. The potential impact that IOT can have on various industries is huge, including the education industry. IoT (internet of things) can be said as a network of interconnected devices that collect and exchange data over internet, it can be used to improve administration of staff and students, efficiency in learning and engaging education environment. The uses, advantages, and dangers of IoT in education are thoroughly examined in this paper. It examines the ways in which IoT is transforming conventional teaching strategies while simultaneously tackling the associated difficulties. Teachers and legislators may successfully deploy IoT solutions and guarantee a safe, inclusive, and effective educational system by being aware of the opportunities as well as the threats.
