Online Resource Platform Makes High-Quality Education Accessible

Digital education has become key to education reform and higher-quality education as information technology and the Internet have been further developed and applied. In the city of Pu’er, iFLYTEK advanced the digital transformation of teaching and empowered smart education with information technology.

Through a simple code scan and log-in, online resources are available with a simple click. Since the beginning of the digital transformation effort in Pu’er, teachers have used materials found on Zhixue.com to prepare interactive lessons and effectively engage their students.

According to Liu Juanjuan, the Vice President of Zhengdong Town Middle School, the high-quality resources available on Zhixue.com aid teachers in bringing innovation and diversity into the classroom and encourage them to teach their students better. She further said that information technology provides teachers with advanced teaching concepts and methods and elevates rural education to compete with urban areas.

As of June 2023, Zhixue.com has provided more than 3.5 million sets of test papers with over 100 million questions, covering every subject at every level. Each week, more than 8,000 sets of test papers are updated on the platform.

Meanwhile, Pu’er has established its own database for junior high school-level subjects, including Chinese, mathematics, and English. The database includes more than 900 sets of test papers and over 15,000 questions, significantly improving the exchange of educational resources between urban and rural areas.

Han Hualin, a chemistry teacher at the Yifu Middle School, also lauded Zhixue.com for making it easier to provide his students with relevant resources. While previously struggling to find what his students needed for class, Han can now find subject materials quickly through a simple search. He further highlighted how the platform enables teachers to review papers and exams at a moment’s notice efficiently.

The educational benefits from the Internet, big data, and other technologies are breaking down teaching barriers by making high-quality resources more available than ever. Through such innovations, geography and socio-economics will no longer limit students’ academic and professional aspirations.
