"Digitalization" helps the balanced education development of rural education
In recent years, with the continuous advancement of education digitalization, the digital teaching conditions of primary and secondary schools in various places have been comprehensively upgraded. Especially for the vast rural areas, digitalization has become an effective means to promote the development of rural education.
The Shimenqian Primary School in Xiamadu Town, Yongzhou, Hunan Province is located in a mountainous area. There are less than 20 students in the school, and the teaching staff is relatively weak.
With the start of the new semester, Shimenqian Primary School is using multimedia equipment to hold the "Cloud Reading Sharing Session" simultaneously with Minsheng Primary School in the city.
In the classroom, teachers and students from the two places "sent hello" and shared their experience of participating in happy reading activities during the winter vacation.
One screen connects two classrooms in urban and rural areas, and students from the two places attend the same class and share educational resources.
Jiang Xianglei, principal of Shimenqian Primary School in Xiamadu Town, Yongzhou City:
We have jointly established a "cloud classroom" with many high-quality schools in the city, and regularly conduct remote online teaching, so that students can listen to excellent courses such as music and science at the same time.
Now resources are abundant, giving us a starting point for improving rural education.

Shanghai: Wisdom empowers physical education classrooms to help students grow up healthily
Digitalization of education is not only a means to promote fairness, but also a powerful tool to achieve high-quality development of education.
Shanghai is the first pilot area for the digital transformation of education in the country. In Baoshan District, relying on the intelligent platform, the students' physical education class has realized "smart" operation. Each student not only has his own physical and healthy portrait, but also realizes the "prescription" of exercise precise delivery.
In the smart playground of Shanghai Baoshan Middle School, with the help of 3 high-speed cameras and data calculations from artificial intelligence equipment, each student's sports performance can be recorded in real time, including a series of outdoor activities such as 50-meter sprint, pull-ups, and standing long jump. basic sports.
Wu Yuna, physical education teacher of Baoshan Middle School in Shanghai: In
the past, I used a stopwatch to record the 50-meter sprint test on the roster. After class, I had to enter the data into the computer, which was very cumbersome.
Through the smart playground, only a mobile phone is needed, and all the previous test and monitoring data are automatically entered into the mobile phone, which is convenient for me to make teaching adjustments.
At the same time, through the running bracelets worn by students, data such as heart rate and exercise load can also be collected.
Real-time monitoring and easy feedback, empowered by smart terminals, can not only make physical education more "smart", but also provide each student with basic information such as height, weight, and vital capacity through the collected data. Generate a portrait of physical fitness and form an exclusive exercise "prescription".
Zhu Youran, a first-year student at Baoshan Middle School in Shanghai:
In the exercise prescription, artificial intelligence helped me set up two exercises, left and right side lunge squat and left knee high five, which effectively helped me improve my strength, agility and coordination.
According to the exercise prescription, students can use their spare time to carry out targeted exercises, and with the help of the sports interactive mirror, they can also automatically match each student's supplementary plan.
The system will provide a series of sports options to help students improve their physical strength, endurance, coordination, and speed.
According to reports, Baoshan District in Shanghai will realize full coverage of smart sports this year.
Zhang Zhi, director of the Baoshan District Education Bureau in Shanghai:
In this way, children not only like sports but also physical education classes.
In addition, consciously forming the habit of sports, promotes the awareness of active and healthy development, so it has a great effect on children's mental health, including physical and mental development.
Zhejiang: Digital platform empowers after-school services and homework management

In some places in Zhejiang, digital platforms have made after-school services and homework management more convenient and convenient.
In the new semester, schools have started in various places, and after-school services have also been launched one after another.
Zhejiang Jinhua has launched a digital platform "Double Reduction Pass" in the city's primary and secondary schools, which can realize intelligent management of online class start, class scheduling, registration, payment, and class dismissal management.
On the backstage of the "Double Reduction Pass" of Huhaitang Primary School in Jinhua City, the names and number of applicants for 56 after-school service courses can be seen at a glance.
This is the application scenario of the "Double Reduction and Communication" school-leaving management of the Second Experimental Primary School in Jindong District. The blue, green and red colors represent the school-leaving status of different classes. Parents who are waiting can grasp the class dynamics at the first time.
After picking up the baby, scan the QR code at the bottom of the screen to sign in for the baby pick-up.
In addition, based on this digital platform, teachers can also realize one-stop release, observation and coordination of homework after class.
After the students finish their homework for the day, they can take photos and upload them to realize cloud correction. In the background, the teacher can not only check the details of each student's answer, but also check the overall data of the class to accurately grasp the class's academic situation.
Fu Dezhen, director of the Education Technology and Information Center of Jinhua Education Bureau:
Our homework and Q&A system are integrated into one. While students are doing their homework, they can ask questions to the teacher, and the teacher or AI will answer them intelligently.
This data will help us form a follow-up called "Big Data of Learning Affair".
It is helpful for teachers and students to make up for their shortcomings and guide the teaching and research of schools.
Zhejiang: Digital platforms promote personalized teaching
In Hangzhou Jianlan Middle School, the school has also created its own digital platform.

Jin Yuchen, a student from Jianlan Middle School in Hangzhou:
Usually when we finish our homework, the teacher will record our answer sheets into the system after correcting them, so that we can accumulate our wrong questions.
When introducing some topics for me, the topics containing these difficulties will be released first.
Li Chunbo, a special-grade teacher in Zhejiang Province:
We have taken a separate volume and kept it for one semester at most, but now we may still find it 10 years later, so that we can promote the next step of teaching more scientifically and effectively.
In Zhejiang, the Provincial Department of Education has also developed and launched a free online question-and-answer service system "Zheli Wenxue", which provides opportunities for students across the province to ask questions and communicate with a team of famous teachers.
Chen Feng, deputy director of the party group member of the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education:
Students can ask questions online, and we will gather teachers from all over the province to answer them on the spot.
