The rapid development of AI technologies such as large models is profoundly changing the entire field of education, and traditional teaching and learning are ushering in a comprehensive revolution. As a pioneer in AI education in China, iFLYTEK has won the championship of international AI competitions in the past 25 years, and won the first prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award in June this year. Thanks to the support of these award-winning AI technologies, the iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine has continued to lead the development of the industry since its launch in 2019, creating a revolutionary learning method of personalized precision learning.
On June 27, iFLYTEK released the fully upgraded iFLYTEK Spark model V4.0, which significantly improved its capabilities. Relying on this powerful technology engine, the AI 1-to-1 Q&A tutoring function of the iFLYTEK AI learning machine has ushered in a major upgrade, creating a new interactive lecture mode that guides children to think and ask questions actively. At the same time, in line with the requirements of the new curriculum standard in 2022 "respecting individuality and attaching importance to self-directed learning", iFLYTEK has cooperated with well-known universities and other authoritative institutions across the country to carefully develop a series of high-quality learning content that closely follows the new curriculum standards, including AI optimization courses.
In order to bring these new features and new content to children in the first time, and bring them new learning methods and better learning experience, on July 5, iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine held a summer conference with the theme of "New AI, New Content, New Upgrades".
Protestant teachings:
AI 1-to-1 Q&A counseling has evolved to help parents feel more worry-free
When children encounter difficult problems, traditional answer analysis and problem solving videos often give answers directly, and children can only passively accept knowledge, which is easy to develop inert thinking and become unthinking in the long run. And due to the lack of interaction, it is difficult for children to stay focused, and they don't know who to turn to for help when they get stuck, which seriously affects the learning effect and motivation.
In order to solve this problem, the iFLYTEK AI learning machine, which is equipped with the iFLYTEK Xinghuo large model V4.0, has comprehensively upgraded the AI one-on-one Q&A tutoring function. Different from the traditional way of taking photos and searching questions, the upgraded AI one-on-one Q&A tutoring guides children to think and ask questions actively through heuristic interactive explanations, so that children can independently solve problems in personalized interaction with AI lecture partners. Even if the child is just stuck at a certain point, the AI buddy can provide effective guidance.
Thanks to the multiple ability improvements of the iFLYTEK Xinghuo large model V4.0, the AI student companion also achieved a super-anthropomorphic effect when explaining, and the whole explanation was both friendly and super patient. At the same time, in order to make it easier for children to understand, multi-modal explanation methods such as information circle drawing, drawing explanation and key content board book have also been added. During the explanation, if the child has any questions, he or she can ask questions by voice, circle drawing or clicking on the board book, and the AI partner will patiently give targeted answers.
Since it was launched on iFLYTEK Xinghuo in May 2023, the iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine has successively launched a number of AI 1-to-1 tutoring functions based on large models. This time, with the improvement of iFLYTEK Xinghuo V4.0 capabilities, AI one-on-one Q&A counseling has evolved in an all-round way, which not only guides children to think actively and solve problems on their own, but also helps parents to save effort and worry in counseling.
New Method:
Keeping up with the new curriculum standards and the new high school entrance examination, the ace precision learning will be upgraded again
In order to help children efficiently check and fill in the gaps, in 2019, iFLYTEK launched the industry's first personalized precision learning system that "can diagnose children's weaknesses with a few questions", and has continued to upgrade since then, forming six core advantages: localization, stratification, full question type, traceability, multi-discipline and multi-mode.
This year, focusing on the new curriculum standards and the new high school entrance examination, the iFLYTEK AI learning machine has once again upgraded personalized and accurate learning. In the precision study of mathematics in primary schools, around the themes of "new context, interdiscursiveness, practicality, and openness" proposed by the new curriculum standards, 611 literacy points and 4172 situational problems have been added, which comprehensively cover the 11 core literacies such as number sense, quantity sense, and symbol awareness required by the new curriculum standards, and guide children to "observe the world with mathematical eyes, understand the world with mathematical thinking, and express the world with mathematical language".
In addition to systematically checking and filling in the gaps, in order to meet the needs of children's independent and personalized test questions, the primary school mathematics stage test has been upgraded to an AI paper group stage test, and children can request to customize mock papers containing personal mistakes, weak points, local common test points and error-prone points, and the learning machine will form a paper in one second, saving a lot of time for finding questions.
Looking at the new high school entrance examination, big data analysis in the past three years shows that there are 20%-30% differences in the focus of the high school entrance examination in different provinces, therefore, as early as 22 years, the iFLYTEK AI learning machine released a regionalized precision for junior high school mathematics. After the mathematics test paper of this year's high school entrance examination came out, the questions in the iFLYTEK AI learning machine AI synchronous precision science were compared in detail with the real questions of the high school entrance examination, and the results showed that the matching similarity of the questions was greater than 80%, accounting for more than 80% or even more than 90% of the total score.
In order to allow children to better adapt to the new high school entrance examination, the iFLYTEK AI learning machine has also upgraded the three rounds of review for the junior high school mathematics high school entrance examination, adding new question types required in the new curriculum standards to help children review efficiently and get good results.
On the other hand, in 2023, the Ministry of Education and other 18 departments issued the "Opinions on Strengthening Science Education in Primary and Secondary Schools in the New Era", emphasizing that education should do a good job in the addition of science education in the "double reduction". To this end, the iFLYTEK AI learning machine has added a primary school science section and developed primary school science precision to help children quickly discover subject knowledge loopholes.
What's new:
Self-developed AI improvement courses, so that children can meet a better self
Traditional online courses are often untargeted, using the same set of content regardless of the child's learning level. Moreover, due to the lack of clear goals and long-term planning, it is easy for children to give up halfway. What's more, it only focuses on learning and not testing, and it is difficult for both children and parents to understand the effectiveness of learning.
What children really need is a class that pays attention to individual differences, provides personalized learning solutions, emphasizes interactive learning, and encourages positive thinking. With the help of cutting-edge AI technologies such as large models, iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine has launched a series of self-developed AI optimization courses, bringing good lessons in the new era of AI to children.
In response to children's pain points such as not being able to write, vernacular, and running accounts, this spring, the iFLYTEK AI learning machine specially launched an AI 1-to-1 Chinese composition tutoring class to create an integrated learning solution of learning, writing and evaluation, and teach children to write good compositions by hand.
As another cornerstone of language learning, the importance of reading is also undeniable, and the new curriculum standard in 2022 includes reading the whole book as one of the six learning task groups, emphasizing reading more, reading good books, and reading whole books.
In view of this, the iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine has released a new intensive reading of the whole book AI Optimization Course, the book list is in line with the new course standards, and some books such as domestic and foreign classics and Happy Reading Bar are selected to meet the reading needs of different stages and levels. Through 14 days of intensive reading of a book, the course teaches children reading strategies and methods, helps them understand the books in depth, and then expands their reading of multiple books after reading, consolidating the methods and broadening their horizons.
In terms of English reading, the family of graded reading picture books has been expanded to include children's favorite Disney official picture books and National Geographic picture books. Among them, Disney picture books cover fairy tales such as "Frozen" and "The Lion King", which are familiar to children; National Geographic picture books expose children to a wealth of natural and social science content. With the addition of the previous Oxford, PM and iFLYTEK wonderful dynamic picture books, the total number of English picture books on the learning machine has exceeded 2,000. The paper books of these picture books cost more than 10,000 yuan, but they are all free on the learning machine.
In response to another set of classic English textbooks that have influenced several generations of Chinese students, the iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine has released a new concept English AI optimization course. On the premise of keeping the overall learning time unchanged, the original lesson time is disassembled, which greatly reduces the knowledge density of a single lesson, slows down the learning slope, makes it easier for children to absorb, and changes passive listening to active learning. The course is taught by high-quality Chinese teachers and foreign teachers from North America, and provides high-frequency exercises to fill in the gaps and consolidate the knowledge learned.
In addition to Chinese and English, for the other main subject - mathematics, iFLYTEK AI Learning Machine has launched an AI optimization course for young thinking enlightenment and an AI optimization course for elementary school mathematical thinking.
Among them, the Thinking Enlightenment course is designed for preschool children aged 3-6 years old, using dynamic picture books as the carrier and adding a reading function to make learning interactive and interesting. The course comprehensively covers the four major sections of number concepts, logic, graphics, and application, and connects mathematical knowledge through multiple stories, improving children's thinking ability and cultivating their excellent character of thinking about others.
In the primary school mathematical thinking class, the grading diagnosis is carried out through AI, and then the corresponding courses are recommended according to the diagnosis results, and the daily learning path is carefully planned. The course process incorporates high-frequency interaction to maintain children's attention, and there is an interactive summary at the end to guide children to participate. In addition, the AI will also recommend personalized exercises based on the results of the interaction, and will be equipped with explanatory videos to help children improve their mathematical thinking.
