According to the curriculum schedule displayed on the electronic class board, the reporter walked into the geography classroom of Dongjiang Junior Middle School in Wudu District, Longnan City.

In the classroom, each student has a tablet computer on their desktop, and the topographic map in the textbook is synchronized to the tablet computer screen, zooming in and out, clearly and clearly. Afterwards, questions related to the topographic map popped up on the screen of the tablet computer, and the students "learned and tested immediately" and raised their hands on the podium to share their ideas for solving the questions.

Nearly 80 percent of the students in the school are left-behind children. Principal Sun Wenmin recalled that a few years ago, when she first came to work here, the students saw that she was very restrained and did not like to talk, no matter in recess or in class.

In 2015, the teaching quality of this school ranked 147th in Longnan City; in 2021, the ranking will rise to 11th in the city.

"In recent years, the school has undergone earth-shaking changes, and so have the children." Sun Wenmin said that the students are more confident and sunny, and their communication and cooperation skills have improved.

All of this is due to the informatization of education.

In 2018, the school began to promote the construction of informatization. Firstly, the system of class scheduling, marking, and score analysis, as well as logistics management and teacher office system, etc., reduced the burden of management, and teachers devoted more energy to improving the quality of classroom teaching.

Focusing on the concept of "self-guided teaching", the school allows students to use mobile terminals and a large number of learning resources on the smart education cloud platform of Longnan City to strengthen independent analysis and thinking, and improve learning autonomy and independent learning ability.

Came to Chengguan Primary School, Wudu District, Longnan City, projectors, desktop computers, tablet computers, etc., are widely used in multi-disciplinary classroom teaching——

In the computer class, each student made a slide show of the knowledge and stories he was most interested in, such as golden monkeys, giant pandas, "Water Margin" and "Journey to the West", which involved rich content.

In the art class, the students created in front of their respective drawing boards according to the sample paintings and painting skills displayed on the screen. The teacher freed up his hands and carefully guided them one by one.

In mathematics class, after learning the concept formulas, the students' tablets launched related practice questions. Not long after, the correct rate of the students in the class had been counted, and the teacher gave targeted explanations around the error-prone options.

Yang Gaoshe, the principal of the school, introduced that the "group cooperation + tablet teaching" mode and rich online learning resources have strengthened the interaction between teachers and students, and students and students; accurate data analysis has provided a strong guarantee for efficient classrooms.

At present, the teacher-to-machine ratio of Chengguan Primary School in Wudu District is 1:1, and the ratio of students to students is 12:1; the teacher registration rate of the "Smart Education Cloud Platform" has reached 100%, and the student registration rate has reached more than 98%. The improvement of information-based teaching equipment and cloud platform has greatly improved the school's teachers' lesson preparation, teaching efficiency, and students' learning efficiency at school.

Educational informatization also promotes kindergartens to be more "smart".

The 18 teaching classes in Wudu District Kindergarten, Longnan City are all equipped with electronic class boards and dedicated network for online teaching.

At the gate of the kindergarten, robots measure the temperature to ensure that every child enters the kindergarten in a healthy manner; in the classroom, the teacher opens a window for children to observe the world through the online teaching of the seewo all-in-one computer; in the maker classroom and scientific inquiry room, "Internet + education" Enlighten children with science and innovation and stimulate the fun of seeking knowledge.

"Teacher and student attendance records, leave records, kindergarten notices, class dynamics, nutritional recipes and other content are all 'online', and parents can 'cloud' witness the growth of their children." Wang Xiaoqin, the principal of the kindergarten, said.

This is the epitome of the education informatization construction in Longnan City in recent years.

In recent years, the local government has taken the acceleration of education informatization as an important measure and a powerful booster to "break bottlenecks, make up for shortcomings, promote balance, and improve quality", so as to meet the needs and desires of ordinary people to "study well" at their doorstep.

Using government leadership, project support, and market operations, Longnan City has gradually realized the integrated construction of cloud, network, and terminal.

At present, the student-to-student ratios in primary schools, junior high schools, and senior high schools in Longnan City are 10:1, 7.2:1, and 10.4:1, respectively, and the teacher-to-computer ratio is 1.7:1. It has built 284 recording and broadcasting classrooms, 137 electronic lesson preparation rooms for teachers, 342 "class-to-class communication" demonstration classrooms, 11,000 multimedia classrooms, 29 synchronous interactive classroom model schools, 671 primary school science information laboratories, 87 A maker multifunctional classroom. At the same time, Longnan City's "Banbantong" equipment and digital education resources at teaching sites have achieved full coverage. All primary and secondary schools in the city (including village schools and teaching sites) are connected to the education metropolitan area network. There are 1,040 schools in the city, 27,000 teachers and 238,000 Ten thousand students registered on Longnan Smart Education Cloud Platform.

The "Multiple Schools" model solves the problem that some students in weaker schools "eat poorly" The problem of "not enough food" for students in the classroom.
