Li Yi, founder of Ape Programming: Cultivating technological youth in the era of artificial intelligence

DoNews reported on June 1 that on May 28, the Second Youth Internet Conference Parallel Forum Three: AI Education Innovation and Youth Literacy Improvement was successfully held at Beijing Normal University with the theme of "AI Era Digitalization and Youth Development". This forum is hosted by Beijing Normal University and jointly organized by the Educational Journalism and Media Research Center of Beijing Normal University and the Computational Communication Research Center of Beijing Normal University.

Li Yi, the founder of Ape Programming, was invited to discuss the in-depth integration of artificial intelligence technology and core literacy and educational innovation with the theme of "AI Education Innovation and Youth Literacy Improvement".

Founder Li Yi mentioned in his speech "Cultivating Tech Teenagers in the Artificial Intelligence Era" that Apeprogramming's educational product system mainly focuses on four aspects: "programming language, computational thinking, creative ability, and future vision." Programming language mainly trains children to master the "human-computer dialogue language and tools" in the technological era; computational thinking realizes the transformation of children's thinking mode from "problem solving to problem solving" through "knowledge to the wisdom behind knowledge"; creativity shapes children The ability to use knowledge and tools to "turn creative ideas into reality"; technological vision guides children to pay attention to the impact of technology on the present and the future, giving them a broader vision of future technology.

Li Yi believes that for children, the learning of skills and tools is short-term, but the cultivation of thinking and literacy can be widely used in learning and life, benefiting people in the long term. Artificial intelligence education is a systematic project, with application at the top and a progressive process from enlightenment cognition, thinking training, hands-on practice to integrated innovation. "We help children learn knowledge, and we hope that children can understand the environment and background in which knowledge is produced during the learning process, and in the process of transmitting knowledge, let children experience the humanistic spirit of scientists."

The "Artificial Intelligence Enlightenment Series-AR Programming Class" launched by the Ape Programming Campus is a typical case of artificial intelligence teaching innovation. Li Yi introduced it. It is an innovative course that combines AR (augmented reality) technology and programming teaching. By scanning physical cards with a mobile phone or tablet, the course integrates 3D virtual images and the actual environment, thus enabling human-computer interaction. This new type of classroom is regarded as a teaching method that breaks through traditional teaching forms and creates a sensory experience that transcends reality.

The purpose of Ape Programming is to promote the popularization of artificial intelligence education so that children across the country can seize future opportunities. " Li Yi said, "In the future, we will continue to maintain close cooperation with schools and use technology and content to help popularize and develop artificial intelligence education step by step. Through AI education innovation, we will cultivate ‘technological teenagers’ in the era of artificial intelligence.”

Yuan Programming Classroom has provided overall solutions for artificial intelligence innovative education to more than 1,000 primary and secondary schools. Ape Programming Classroom supports multiple online functions such as intelligent teaching assistants, intelligent learning companions, cloud teaching and research, multi-evaluation, data management and other online functions. It builds a "hybrid teaching" model that organically combines online and offline, provides rich teaching resources, and empowers classroom teaching. Can increase efficiency.

At the same time, the Ape Programming children's book series is also creating cutting-edge popular science books for children in the artificial intelligence era. It has sold nearly 400,000 copies in total and has been recommended by more than 10 national and municipal libraries and authoritative media book lists.
