The Provincial Education Network Association has focused on artificial intelligence for many years
In recent years, the informatization of colleges and universities has made great progress, built a digital campus with the integrated development of physical space and cyberspace, and realized the rapid development of education digitalization and informatization. At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation characterized by digitalization and intelligence is profoundly affecting all aspects of education.
As a bridge between schools and enterprises, the Provincial Education Network Association has organized hundreds of academic exchange activities in the province according to the needs of information technology development and school informatization construction, and has successively held technical exchanges and seminars on network security and smart campus in Central South University, Hunan University, Central South Forestry University, Changsha University of Science and Technology, Hunan College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Yali Middle School, etc. In order to promote the digital transformation of colleges and universities in Hunan Province, the "AI+" Enabling Digital Transformation to Help the High-quality Development of Education - Hunan Provincial Education Digital Transformation Technology Seminar was also held. The association also actively strengthened exchanges and cooperation with units outside the province, strengthened the learning of new technologies, exchanged construction and management experience, and improved the technical level of participants.
Not only that, the Provincial Education Network Association and Hunan Vocational College of Science and Technology have also jointly established a demonstration base for smart education in higher vocational colleges in Hunan Province with some outstanding education informatization enterprises, aiming to explore how to use new technologies such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, big data, and blockchain to realize the deep integration of information technology and education and teaching under the "Internet + education" model, and create a "Hunan business card" for the informatization and smart learning environment of higher vocational colleges.
The reporter learned that in the next step, the association will actively broaden the scope of exchanges and strengthen exchanges and cooperation with counterparts in other provinces and advanced regions; It is necessary to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with the information industry and advanced technology enterprises; It is necessary to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with similar industry associations. At the same time, through further exchanges and cooperation, further expand the role and influence of the association, and actively explore the deep integration of information technology and education and teaching under various modes such as "Internet + education", "artificial intelligence + education" and "big data + education", so that information technology can better serve teaching, management, daily life and the future.
Yu Weiliang, member of the Education Working Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and member of the Party Group of the Provincial Department of Education, said that the association should give full play to the characteristics and advantages of provincial and industrial social organizations, focus on the professional characteristics of education digitalization, and adopt the methods of "going out" and "inviting in" to effectively link government departments, educational institutions, scientific research, enterprises and institutions, and gather cohesion for the development of digital transformation of education, gather talents, expand the "circle of friends" and enhance influence; In the new wave of digital development of education, we should continue to pay attention to cutting-edge technologies such as big data, cloud computing, and generative artificial intelligence, unite experts and talents from all walks of life, become a "think tank" highland, carry out exchanges and discussions, scientific research and achievement promotion, solve the key problems restricting the digital transformation of education in our province, and provide support, driving force and traction for the qualitative leap in the digitalization of education in our province.
Artificial intelligence accelerates the transformation of education informatization
Artificial intelligence is accelerating the reform and innovation of education, and constantly opening up new paths and models for the development of educational innovation.
"Changsha uses a new generation of information technology to build a standard, standardized, and interconnected smart education platform to create a digital foundation; Guide schools to build digital twin campuses with spatial empowerment, virtual and real integration, and co-frequency resonance, realize digital transformation, intelligent upgrading, integration and innovation of education, and lead the high-quality development of regional education. According to Huang Xu, director of Changsha Modern Education Technology Center, Changsha No. 6 Middle School focuses on "precision teaching" to build a "three-stage and nine-step" smart classroom teaching model, through the use of big data, regional relevance, user portraits and semantic understanding and other AI technologies, combined with multi-dimensional resource labels and user tag systems, to achieve the resource search efficiency of resources to books, lessons, chapters and teachers preparing for teaching in the lesson preparation scenario; Changjun Bilingual Experimental Middle School uses artificial intelligence technology to launch the "AI homework customization" model, which not only provides "basic homework" for all students, but also sets up "extended homework" and "practical homework". Quantang No. 2 Primary School in Changsha County uses AI classroom to achieve real-time learning, and evaluators can comment on students' classroom performance in real time through interesting badge awarding and split-screen display.
"The advent of artificial intelligence will also usher in a new journey for higher education." Du Xuanjie, director of the Resource Department of the Teacher Development Center of South China Normal University, said that it is necessary to make full use of digital means to track the whole process of teaching, learning and management, use big data to portrait teachers and students, and explore the formation of new digital education standards and assessment and evaluation systems through AI intelligent class inspection and Al intelligent teaching evaluation, so as to grasp the classroom teaching status in real time and summarize multi-latitude information and data. At the same time, he also introduced a variety of teaching scenarios such as "AI + automatic recording" and "AI + board book enhancement", so that "no matter where the teacher goes, he will always be in the perspective C position, so that the students in the back row can see more clearly." ”
