On June 8th, 2020, Putao Education held an online conference of AiS course guide for artificial intelligence enlightenment education at Pai Technology headquarters. The conference was live broadcasted online and published the preliminary results of Putao AiS enlightenment education research institute on children's artificial intelligence enlightenment education for the first time, and released the AiS course guide on artificial intelligence enlightenment education which provided a theoretical basis for the practice of Chinese children's artificial intelligence enlightenment education in the future. Key attendees included Huang Zheng, President of Putao Education; Ying Jing, professor of School of Computer Science, Zhejiang University; Gan Honghua, Dean of Putao AiS Enlightening Education Research Institute; He Xiaoqin, director of Zhejiang University Preschool-experimental Kindergarten, and Wang Wei, director of Chengdu Harvard Star American Kindergarten .

葡萄教育总裁黄政为本次发布会致开幕词,阐述了葡萄教育依托葡萄科技产品,结合孩子熟悉并喜欢的布鲁可形象,打造系统化的人工智能启蒙教育解决方案。黄政在会上表示,葡萄教育已形成人工智能启蒙教育研究院、全国重点布局示范园、葡萄科技产品三位一体的产学研一体螺旋研发应用机制,未来将进一步深耕人工智能启蒙教育的实证研究,建立更多的教育实践与示范基地,开创人工智能启蒙教育新纪元。

Huang Zheng, President of Putao Education, delivered the opening speech for this conference and explained that Putao Education relies on Pai Technology products and combines the feagures of the original animation Magic Blocks that children are familiar with to create a systematic artificial intelligence enlightenment education solution. Huang said that Putao Education has formed an integrated R&D mechanism of the Artificial-intelligence Enlightenment Education Research Institute, national key demonstration kindergartens and Pai Technology products. In the future, further research on artificial intelligence enlightenment education will be carried out, and more educational practice and demonstration bases will be established to create a new era of artificial intelligence enlightenment education.

随后,浙江大学计算机学院教授应晶针对AiS指南进行了深入的解析。AiS指南基于建构主义理论,融合人工智能启蒙教育和STEAM教育理念,遵循教育部《3-6岁儿童学习与发展指南》以及3-6岁儿童认知发展特点,参考美国CSTA(计算机科学教师协会)课程标准,在主题式学习和游戏探究的过程中,促进逻辑思维、编程思维与创意思维,培养儿童探究问题的思维和解决问题的能力。

Then, Ying Jing, professor of the School of Computer Science, Zhejiang University, made an in-depth analysis of AiS guide. AiS guide based on the constructivism theory, applying artificial intelligence enlightenment education and STEAM education philosophy, adhering to the 3-6 year-old children's learning and development guide of China’s Ministry of Education, as well as the characteristics of 3-6 year-old children's cognitive development. It also refers to CSTA (Computer Science Teachers Association) curriculum standard, in the process of thematic study and games, promote logic thinking, programming thinking and creative thinking, cultivate children to explore the problems and then solve them.

葡萄AiS启蒙教育研究院院长干红华针对AiS指南的作用及实施进行了总结。在人工智能启蒙教育AiS指南的指导下,不仅可以有效提升幼儿的科学素养,通过跨学科领域学习、倡导动手实践、以真实问题的驱动式研究型探究,将创意实现并表达出来,同时教师的AI启蒙教育能力也将得到提升,实现人工智能与教育的深度融合。

Gan Honghua, director of the Institute of AiS Enlightening Education, summarized the role and implementation of AiS Guide. The AiS Guide for artificial intelligence enlightenment education can not only effectively improve children's scientific literacy, but also promote hands-on practice through interdisciplinary study, unlock creative possibilities through process of problem-solving Meanwhile, the AI enlightenment education ability of teachers will also be improved to realize the deep integration of artificial intelligence and education.

最后,浙大幼儿园实验园园长何晓勤以及成都哈佛之星美式幼稚园园长王薇分别围绕《 AiS启蒙教育牵手实验课程》、《WHOLE STEAM的探索与实践》展开分享讨论。浙大幼儿园实验园除了专用活动室的AI教育专题课程外,还开展了日常生活中AI教育的融合;成都哈佛之星美式幼稚园则是在STEAM的研究上做了多维度的尝试和深入延展,培养幼儿对机器人和编程的认知的同时,让孩子在快乐操作中学习。

Finally, He Xiaoqin, director of Zhejiang University Preschool-experimental Kindergarten, and Wang Wei, director of Chengdu Harvard Star American Kindergarten, shared and discussed about AiS Enlightenment Education cooperative Experiment Course and WHOLE STEAM Exploration and Practice . In addition to the AI education courses in the special activity room, Zhejiang University Preschool-experimental Kindergarten also carried out the integration of AI education in daily life. Chengdu Harvard Star American Kindergarten has made multi-dimensional attempts and in-depth extension on the research of STEAM, so as to cultivate children's cognition of robot and programming and let them learn happily.

葡萄科技秉承“科技陪伴成长”为使命,致力于用创新科技,全面升级儿童玩乐学习场景,创造新一代儿童的成长方式。现有四大核心业务板块,包括:布鲁可积木、动画IP、数字化业务、葡萄教育,倾力打造“儿童科技”全生态产业链,持续为儿童提供优质的产品服务和正能量的文化价值。

With a mission to accompany children’s growth with technology, Pai Technology has been committed to comprehensively upgrade children's play and learning scenarios and create a new style for children’s growth through taking advantage of innovative technology. There are four core business units of Pai Technology, including blocks, animation IP, digital business, as well as Putao Education. It strives to build an ecological industry chain of " technology for children", continue to provide children with high-quality products and positive cultural value.

2017年国务院发布《新一代人工智能发展规划》,明确强调在中小学阶段设置人工智能相关课程,逐步推广编程教育,将编程教育列入人工智能课程最核心的部分。由此,编程思维的启蒙教育对于学前教育阶段儿童的重要性已日益凸显,编程思维启蒙教育的需求亦日渐扩大。人工智能启蒙教育将从幼儿园开始,以满足儿童发展长远目标和幼小衔接的现实需要。在此背景下,促进AI启蒙教育与STEAM教育双向赋能与融合,葡萄AiS启蒙教育体系应运而生。

In 2017, China’s State Council issued the Development Plan for the New Generation of artificial Intelligence, which clearly stated setting AI-related courses in primary and secondary schools, gradually promoting programming education and including programming education as the core part of the AI curriculum. Therefore, the importance of programming thinking enlightenment education for preschool children has become increasingly prominent, and the demand for programming thinking enlightenment education keepsincreasing. Artificial intelligence enlightenment education will start from kindergartens to meet the long-term development goals of children and the practical needs of connecting kindergarten and primary education for young children. In this context, the Putao AiS enlightenment education system came into being to promote the two-way empowerment and integration of AI enlightenment education and STEAM education.

本体系聚焦于研究符合儿童身心发展规律的AiS教学内容、方法等,培养儿童编程思维等能力、提高教师专业能力、打造园所发展特色,推动学前教育领域的AiS启蒙教育体系建设。AiS指南是本体系的重要理论保障。

The system focuses on AiS courses and ways that are suitable for children’s development, cultivating childrens’ programming thinking, improving teachers’s capability, creating characteristics for kindergartens, and pushing forward the AiS enlightenment education system building for preschool education. AiS Guide serves as an important theoretical support for the system.

发布会深入浅出,从理论解析到实践案例,为业内人士提供全面了解葡萄人工智能启蒙教育体系的机会,提供人工智能时代教育实践的模式参考。

From theoretical analysis to practical cases, the conference provided insiders with an opportunity to fully understand the enlightenment education system of Putao artificial intelligence and intiated a model reference for education practice in the era of artificial intelligence.

未来,葡萄教育将始终以“助力园所打造科技特色,激发人工智能时代下儿童创造力”为己任,不断优化课程方案,通过儿童科技产品创新及教育实证研究,推动人工智能与教育的深度融合,打造与时俱进的系统化的人工智能启蒙教育解决方案。

In the future, Putao Education will take it as a mission to "Help the kindergarten create scientific and technological characteristics and stimulate children's creativity in the era of artificial intelligence", and constantly optimize the curriculum plan. Through the innovation of children's technological products and empirical research on education, it will promote the deep integration of artificial intelligence and education, and create a progressive and systematic solution of artificial intelligence enlightenment education.
