Ministry of Education: "National Intelligent Education Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools" Supports the Work of "Double Reduction"
Cctv newsRecently, the Department of Basic Education of the Ministry of Education introduced the operation and application of the national smart education platform for primary and secondary schools.
The Ministry of Education revised and upgraded the "National Smart Education Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools" on the basis of the original "National Network Cloud Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools", which was put into trial operation on March 1 and has been officially launched. Since the trial operation of the platform, it has effectively supported the "double reduction" work and the "suspension of classes during the epidemic".
Construction of platform resources
Based on the original two resource sections of thematic education and curriculum teaching, the platform has added four new sections, including after-school service, teacher training, family education and practical experience in teaching reform, with a total of 36 secondary columns. The total amount of existing resources reached 28,052, with 17,300 new resources, an increase of 1.6 times. Among them, the course teaching resources of the platform are currently online with 19,508 class hours of 19 editions and 452 textbooks; A number of important professional websites, such as China National Museum, China Digital Science and Technology Museum, National Public Culture Cloud, People’s Daily Youth Network, Digital Dunhuang, Peking University Archaeology and Art Museum, and Tsinghua University Science Museum, are also linked.
The platform has a wide range of resources, focusing on improving students’ comprehensive quality and promoting the all-round development and healthy growth of morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor. It has specially set up columns such as party history study, patriotism, moral education, popular science education, ecological civilization, physical exercise, culture and art, and labor education. Efforts have been made to support major tasks such as "double reduction" and epidemic prevention and control, and special sections have been set up for homework, after-school service, subject training, "double reduction" experience and epidemic prevention knowledge, life and safety, mental health, and psychological assistance hotlines have also been provided; Efforts should be made to realize the whole process of educating people in and out of class. There are not only all curriculum learning resources of all disciplines and grades covering multiple textbook versions, but also rich resources of after-school activities, research practice, film and television education, classic reading, family education and so on.
Operation and application of the platform
Since the trial operation of the platform, the average daily browsing has been rising. From March 1 to March 25, the total number of views reached 720 million, with an average daily view of more than 28.88 million, an increase of 40 times compared with the same period of last year, and the highest daily view reached 64.33 million; Platform users not only cover all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China, but also users from more than 180 countries and regions have used the platform resources.
Since March 14th, the epidemic situation in COVID-19 has occurred in many places, and primary and secondary schools in some areas have made full use of this platform to ensure "no classes to stop studying". The overall daily average number of visitors to the platform has increased from about 12.91 million in the first two weeks of March to more than 46.19 million in the second two weeks, with the increase of more than 6.5 times in Liaoning, Jilin, Fujian, Shandong and other provinces with serious epidemics, effectively serving the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control and "no classes to stop studying".
After the release of the central "double reduction" document in July 2021, the number of platform views and visitors showed a high surge. By the end of February this year, the average daily page views of the former national primary and secondary school network cloud platform reached 21.04 million, 17 times higher than that before the release of the "double reduction" document. After the trial operation of the platform upgrade and revision on March 1 this year, the average daily page views further increased, 24 times higher than before the "double reduction". The resources provided by the platform, such as course teaching, homework design, after-school service and teacher training, have been highly concerned and widely used by teachers and students, especially effectively helping to solve the problem of "where to study and what to learn" after students do not participate in off-campus training, further helping the school to "double reduction" work.
