Wuxi summit debates latest classroom technologies
Jiang Guohua, one of China's earliest researchers in the field of scientometrics and a fellow at the National Institute of Education Sciences, stressed the application of big data analysis and distance learning in education. Jiang spoke highly of Fclassroom, a Wuxi-based software company, for its "Precision Learning" service platform that has already benefitted more than 4.6 million students and 200,000 teachers across the country.
During the summit, Wuxi education administration and Chinese IT giant Tencent signed a cooperation agreement to allow enterprise-class WeChat software to be used in the city’s primary and secondary schools. The agreement forms part of the city’s efforts to promote educational informatization and promote effective communication between administrators, teachers, and students.
During the education summit, two parallel events were held at Taihu International Expo Center, including an IoT innovation contest for teenagers and a smart education exhibition featuring the latest hi-tech products from well-known companies, such as TAL Education and Fclassroom.
