Head Won emphasized, "MathFeed's AI technology can provide equitable learning opportunities to students worldwide," adding, "Teachers around the globe can offer personalized coaching to individual students, significantly enhancing educational inclusivity and equity."
An education official from Congo, Africa, who attended the seminar, stated, "In developing countries, one teacher often has to instruct many students, which is challenging," and added, "AI-based personalized solutions like MathFeed will be a great help in environments lacking educational infrastructure."
Meanwhile, UNESCO prioritizes ensuring that everyone receives equitable and inclusive education and holds the annual 'Digital Learning Week' as a seminar to explore this topic. At this year's event, Woongjin ThinkBig's MathFeed was selected as an 'Outstanding Edutech Case Utilizing AI' and presented on related technologies and educational effects.
