Projects

An intelligent sign language learning platform

This platform primarily helps deaf children and their teachers learn sign language through 3D sign language animation courses, AI-driven formative assessments via hand pose tracking, and a related question bank.

Mathematics and programming course design

This course, designed for eighth-grade students, includes a series of problem scenarios related to math lessons. It helps students consolidate their math knowledge while learning to solve problems with programming.

AI-driven formative assessment with note-tracking smart pens

This study highlights the potential of integrating precision teaching concepts into formative assessment, offering comprehensive and timely feedback by incorporating learning-achievement-related and engagement data into AI models.

A junior high school academic performance prediction system

This study creates a daily closed-loop teaching ecosystem powered by an intelligent predictive model and visualized learning analytics, with educators and learners at its core and guided by data-driven decisions.

Dialect learning & entertainment short video app

This app features dialect-based humorous short videos and offers daily activities and professional editing tools. Alongside entertainment, it supports dialect preservation.
