The Tianjin Municipal Education Commission recently issued guidelines to strengthen AI education in primary and secondary schools, mandating the implementation of AI education across the city. Starting in the fall of 2025, all primary and secondary schools will offer a local curriculum, "Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence," to fourth and eighth graders. This policy aims to meet the evolving needs of technological advancements in education and enhance students' AI literacy. A pilot program will be conducted in select areas and schools during the spring semester of 2025.

According to CCTV News, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Education announced that it will focus on developing 11 AI application scenarios in primary and secondary schools this year and launch the cultivation of 7 'Jingwa' AI assistants. The aim is to empower the five-in-one integrated education system with AI technology, promoting personalized and diversified student development. These application scenarios cover AI teaching assistants for intelligent lesson preparation, intelligent classroom quality monitoring, and smart homework/question setting; AI learning assistants for intelligent error analysis and resource recommendation, autonomous writing correction, and foreign language learning assistance; AI parenting assistants for smart sports and mental health assistance; and AI assessment assistants for...

Hawaii public schools recently piloted an artificial intelligence project, the results of which left a deep impression on education leaders and even moved them. Six teams of 80 students from elementary, middle, and high schools across the islands were tasked with identifying challenges faced by their peers and creating an AI program or "chatbot" to help find solutions. The project was co-created by Ian Kitajima, president of the Pacific International Center for High Technology Research. Hawaii Public Radio (HPR) interviewed Kitajima to learn more.

A group of amateur enthusiasts successfully verified that the fifth number BB(5) of the Busy Beaver problem equals 47,176,870 using the Coq proof assistant software. This is the most significant advancement in the field of computational theory since 1983. This achievement marks an enhancement in the ability to solve complex mathematical problems, demonstrating the potential of software-assisted proof. The Busy Beaver problem dates back to 1974 and aims to find the specific Turing machines that can write the most '1's. The core of the problem lies in understanding the behavior of Turing machines, particularly their performance regarding the halting problem. This discovery not only contributes to

With the arrival of the new school season, DingTalk has launched an upgraded 'New Student Enrollment Plan' aimed at reducing management burdens and increasing efficiency in schools through intelligent solutions, creating a smart and harmonious educational environment. This plan covers key aspects such as new student enrollment, class division, and graduation information management, providing a one-stop service to facilitate seamless connections between schools and families.

Huawei has launched the 'AI Hundred Schools Program' aimed at supporting domestic universities in AI research and innovation by providing AI computing resources through Ascend Cloud Services. This initiative seeks to eliminate computing power bottlenecks and promote scientific research and talent development. The program is targeted at university teams with significant research achievements or far-reaching influence, covering a wide range of areas including AI operators, algorithms, model inference, and large model training. Applicant teams are required to submit project details, and Huawei will comprehensively evaluate project goals, value, innovation, and impact on the industry and ecosystem. Approved projects can receive between 50,000 to 1 million annually.

Research by Stanford educators shows that the cheating rate among high school students has not significantly increased. Experts believe that the root cause of student cheating is not the technology itself. Educators suggest that parents, teachers, and students engage in open dialogue about how to properly use artificial intelligence tools. Students should still know how to complete their work while understanding when and how to use AI tools.

The UN has called for strict regulations to limit the use of AI tools in schools, particularly for older children. The UN's education agency warns that public authorities are not yet prepared to address the ethical issues surrounding 'generative' AI projects launched in schools. The guidelines emphasize the importance of involvement from teachers, learners, and researchers, as well as government oversight, to ensure the safe and effective use of AI tools.

OpenAI has released a showcase of educational industry cases featuring six educators from different countries, most of whom teach at universities with one teaching in high school, all using ChatGPT in their classrooms. The cases include teachers using ChatGPT as a teaching assistant for speaking practice; providing translation help for English learners; and allowing students to verify information generated by ChatGPT. OpenAI also shared prompt examples developed by educational influencer Ethan Mollick to assist teachers in course planning.
