N2  - Recent advances in computer technologies resultin the development of E-Learning and Learning Management Systems. They providemechanisms to organize course contents and training systems includinginteractions of trainers and trainees. Moreover, virtual reality systems emergein the training and education systems to increase the trainee participation atthe process and visualize the training subject. Increasing data transfer ratesof the computer networks also made distant learning activities possible.Moreover, the economical solutions with the cloud computing technologies forthe abovementioned systems come up. All these improvements lead the technologytowards smart classrooms. It seems to alter the educational habits towards theflipped and the blended learning. In this study, general information aboutemerging educational technologies is given and a short evaluation with suggestions is presented.
