Layered Scenario Deployment: Customized AI Solutions for All Grades
Based on the growth patterns, age characteristics, and learning needs of students from kindergarten to high school, our school customizes detailed AI solutions by grade level and scenario, achieving comprehensive coverage of smart applications.
Digital Homework and Personalized Learning Section: Leveraging core tools such as iFLYTEK’s digital homework system, Spark intelligent grading machine, and personalized learning diagnostic engine, we create a full-scenario homework closed loop featuring “precise homework design before class, real-time feedback during class, and personalized supplementary practice after class.” This comprehensively covers all modules including homework design, intelligent scanning, automatic grading, process tracking, learning analysis, and precision teaching, completing the full-chain teaching closed loop of “teaching, learning, assessment, management, and research.” This effectively reduces the dual workload of teachers in homework design and mechanical grading, while precisely identifying students’ knowledge weaknesses and ability levels, truly implementing tiered teaching and individualized instruction.
Smart Classroom Section: Utilizing tools such as AI lesson preparation assistants, intelligent grading, classroom recording analysis, and tiered homework systems, we create a complete teaching closed loop of “intelligent lesson preparation before class, interactive quality improvement during class, and precise analysis after class.” This effectively reduces teachers’ workload, precisely identifies students’ knowledge weaknesses, and implements individualized teaching. At the same time, integrating the school’s characteristics, we launch specialized courses such as AI oral training, general AI knowledge, and STEAM exploration, simultaneously empowering bilingual teaching and STEM talent cultivation.
Smart Physical Education Section: Building an integrated AI sports system, equipped with hardware such as AI smart playgrounds, intelligent fitness testing devices, and fun sports equipment. Through non-intrusive data collection, intelligent physical fitness assessment, and personalized exercise plan recommendations, this caters to both fun sports for young children and professional physical training for primary and secondary school students, using scientific methods to safeguard the physical and mental health of all teachers and students.
Arts and Aesthetic Education Section: Equipped with digital music, art, and calligraphy classrooms, leveraging the AI aesthetic education system to enrich teaching methods and expand course content, empowering art classes with technology and strengthening the foundation for holistic development.
Preschool Education Section: Targeting the growth characteristics of young children, we create a gamified AI activity system, covering fun modules such as mathematical thinking initiation, AI physical fitness, picture book reading, programming initiation, and children’s digital representation, enabling learning through play and enjoyment, completing early childhood literacy initiation.
Mental Health and Growth Management: The AI smart mental health system and digital “one student, one profile” are implemented simultaneously. Multi-modal psychological screening, AI psychological companionship, and emotional guidance tools build a comprehensive psychological protection network; the system integrates multi-dimensional data including academics, moral education, physical education, aesthetic education, and practical activities, establishing electronic growth profiles for each student spanning the entire 15-year school period. Growth trajectories are clearly traceable, providing a basis for personalized cultivation and home-school collaboration.
Specialized Teaching for Diverse Pathways: For international high school and Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan joint entrance exam classes, we customize exclusive AI teaching resources and learning diagnostic tools, building specialized question banks, lesson preparation systems, and learning diagnostic modules to support diverse pathways for further studies.
Comprehensive Campus Management: All campus administrative, academic, moral education, logistics, venue scheduling, and security systems are integrated into the intelligent system, while also establishing teacher digital profiles and competency mapping systems, comprehensively enhancing campus governance efficiency and teacher management levels.
Focus on Building Two Distinctive Educational Brands
Based on the core educational positioning, our school is dedicated to developing two distinctive brands: Bilingual + AI and STEM + AI.
In the bilingual education field, leveraging AI listening and speaking classrooms and digital human language learning companions, we create an immersive language learning environment, comprehensively enhancing students’ oral expression and cross-cultural communication skills, cultivating students’ global competence.
In the STEM education field, we build a tiered and progressive AI curriculum system, thematic laboratories, and scientific exploration spaces, offering diverse content such as general courses, project practices, and STEM competitions. This strengthens scientific inquiry and innovative practical abilities, exercising students’ logical thinking and complex problem-solving skills. These two distinctive features empower each other, continuously polishing the school’s educational reputation.
