[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] As the expansion of COVID-19 vaccination makes full in-person attendance for elementary, middle, and high schools nationwide in the second semester more visible, the education industry is introducing various events and promotions to prevent learning loss.
According to the industry on the 20th, the possibility of full in-person attendance for elementary, middle, and high schools nationwide starting from the second semester is increasing. Due to the COVID-19 virus that has been prevalent since last year, classes at elementary, middle, and high schools nationwide have been conducted online remotely, but it is expected to normalize as classes switch to in-person attendance from the second semester. In response, the education industry is launching various learning events and promotions to prevent learning loss caused by remote classes and to supplement academic gaps.
One-on-One Customized AI Math Program MathCloud, One-Week Free Trial
Geumseong Publishing is conducting a 7-day free trial event for the AI math program MathCloud, allowing students to learn math from basic to advanced levels. If you apply for the MathCloud free trial through the event post by the end of this month, 16 people will be selected by lottery to receive Shinsegae gift certificates worth 50,000 KRW, chicken gifticons, and Starbucks Americano gifticons.
MathCloud consists of math courses for six grades from 4th grade elementary to 3rd grade middle school. It is an AI math program that analyzes students' skills and learning patterns to provide one-on-one customized learning. It features the ‘Cloud Math Dictionary,’ which allows users to check the concept they are curious about and related concepts at a glance through a radial map with a simple search. It enables linked learning from concept study to video lectures and advanced problem solving. Additionally, it has a system that automatically organizes wrong answers and allows unlimited practice of variant problems of wrong answers to perfectly supplement weaknesses, and users can check current skills and future score trends through four types of AI report cards. MathCloud is also linked with Purunet Study Rooms to receive customized management from instructors.
Bae Yoonhee, Head of Platform and Online Business at Geumseong Publishing, said, “Ahead of full in-person attendance, the education industry is striving to solve students’ learning concerns through various learning programs and events that can supplement students’ basic skills and weaknesses.” She added, “Geumseong Publishing is also conducting a special event where you can experience the AI math learning program MathCloud for free, so we hope you participate in the event to check students’ math skills and plan customized learning going forward.”
