2024-12-05T19:19:47+08:00

Feedback is a key factor in motivating and consolidating learning, but in classroom teaching, a teacher needs to provide timely and effective feedback on the homework of dozens of students, which puts much pressure on the teacher. Meanwhile, existing automatic feedback systems are not suitable for open writing tasks. The emergence of ChatGPT has attracted the attention of researchers. We selected 28 open-ended subjective question assignments to input into ChatGPT, and compared and analyzed the scores and comments generated by ChatGPT with those of teachers, to explore the feasibility of using a Large Language Model to provide timely feedback for open-ended subjective questions. Our research indicates that ChatGPT can score and evaluate learners' open-ended subjective homework, and the rating of ChatGPT can be similar to that of teachers. Moreover, ChatGPT's comments can be similar in terms of focus and emotional bias to those of teachers, indicating that ChatGPT's ratings and comments have high credibility.

2024-12-05T19:32:33+08:00

With the rise of technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data and Cloud Computing, Digital Intelligence is reshaping the education landscape in far-reaching ways, opening up new paths for education modernization. As a transformative model, human-computer collaborative teaching provides important opportunities for educational practices through the integration of intelligent technologies and traditional educational practices: technology empowerment to promote teaching innovation, optimal allocation of resources to enhance educational equity, support for personalized learning to achieve tailored teaching, and role diversification to help teachers transform. However, there are also many challenges: insufficient technology integration limits practical application, data ethics and privacy issues raise potential risks, lack of standards and quality exacerbates the lack of regulation, and conflicting roles in collaboration hinders management transformation. Based on this, proposed solutions include enhancing the technological literacy of teachers and learners, strengthening data privacy protection frameworks, optimizing instructional systems to support personalized learning, and building educational ecosystems that promote collaboration and adaptability. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive framework to guide the advancement of education modernization and ensure that it matches the needs and potential of digital intelligence.

2024-12-13T23:52:01+08:00

As the development of family education and kindergarten education progresses, the collaboration between the home and the kindergarten has increasingly become a crucial pathway to promoting the social skills of young children. Early childhood is a critical period for laying the foundation for social competencies, which not only influence a child's current mental health and behavioral habits but also have a profound impact on their future development. However, due to issues such as inadequate communication of information and insufficient cooperation mechanisms between families and kindergartens, the development of children's social interaction skills still faces numerous challenges. This paper aims to explore the significant role of home-kindergarten collaboration in the development of children's social interaction skills, to analyze the current situation, and to propose concrete measures, with the hope of providing a reference for educators and parents.
