A New Era of Education: From Digital to Intelligent
The evolution of the Internet, from the PC era to the mobile Internet, has led to the convergence of the physical and digital worlds. The Internet, big data, and artificial intelligence industries are now merging to create a new era of education. From the 1980s to the present, education has experienced digital, networked, and mobile revolutions, and is now entering the intelligent era.
Three Pillars of Smart Education: Personalized, Borderless, and Multi-Modal
Wang Juhong emphasized that the future of education will be shaped by three key aspects:
- Personalized Education: Smart technology enables the collection, analysis, and intelligent processing of large data. This allows for the creation of a “learning portrait” for each student, including their characteristics, interests, hobbies, learning speed, and learning objectives. This personalized approach enhances teaching effectiveness and learning efficiency.
- Borderless Education: Cloud computing and mobile Internet technology have broken down the barriers of time, space, education level, type, discipline, and professional boundaries. The focus will shift from traditional teaching methods to personalized learning experiences that cater to individual needs and abilities.
- Multi-Modal Education: Multimedia technology, AR/VR, and human-computer interaction will revolutionize the traditional classroom teaching mode, making learning more diverse, interactive, and immersive.
Tencent’s “Future + Education” Training Cooperation Program
Wang Juhong introduced Tencent’s “Future + Education” personnel training cooperation program, which aims to boost intelligent personnel training through three key aspects:
- Building a Digital Campus: Tencent’s digital campus solution provides a comprehensive range of intelligent services for campus life and management innovation.
- Fusion of Knowledge and Communication: Tencent’s knowledge-based community tools, such as “K Bar” and “Le Ask,” facilitate communication and knowledge sharing between teachers, parents, and students.
- Industry-University Cooperative Education: Tencent’s “Rhinoceros Birds” program combines the company’s technological expertise with university teaching content to develop high-quality educational programs and courses.
Collaborative Innovation: The Future of Education
The “Future + Education” training cooperation program will be jointly established by the digital information highway wisdom education and university campus. The “industry-university cooperative education” program will build high-quality educational content, and the “production Gakken collaborative innovation” will explore the depth of integration of technology and education. This collaborative effort will create a new ecological future of education through innovative educational applications and typical applications.
