Mingaku Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, President: Yuta Sato, hereinafter "our company") has begun providing an AI learning support function based on the generative AI platform for education "School AI" for the "Information I" common test preparation workbook published by Shinko Shuppansha Keirinkan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka City, Osaka, President: Satoshi Sato, hereinafter "Keirinkan"), aiming to realize a new learning experience that supports students' self-study.
In this teaching material, in addition to paper workbooks and video explanations, an interactive learning environment where students can deepen their understanding through dialogue with AI is provided via "AI Smart Lecture" based on our "School AI".
This makes it possible for each student to organize their thoughts and proceed with their learning according to the points where they stumbled.
## ■ Background: The Demand for "Self-Driven Learning"
With the introduction of "Information I" to the Common Test for University Admissions, the ability for students to advance their learning while deepening their own understanding is required more than ever. On the other hand, conventional study focused on workbooks and explanations faces challenges such as "cannot understand even after reading the explanation" or "moving on without resolving doubts."
In response to these challenges, our company is collaborating with Keirinkan to provide a learning environment that combines teaching materials with AI.
## ■ Learning Experience Supported by Dialogue with AI
In this teaching material, students can access the AI learning support through a QR code printed in the workbook and receive assistance via dialogue with AI through "AI Smart Lecture" based on our "School AI".
Furthermore, in this material, the AI's response content is tuned for each question so that students can "think" and "deepen their understanding" using each question as a subject. This is designed to guide students gradually to understanding while stimulating their thinking.
Through processes such as:
- Asking the AI questions about points they couldn't fully grasp just by reading the explanation
- Organizing their thoughts while verbalizing them
- Deepening their understanding of the solution while getting hints
Students can understand "why it works that way" in their own words, rather than just knowing the answer.
Through such interactive learning, we realize learning support tailored to the comprehension level of each individual student.
## ■ Usage Scene: AI Utilization Blending into Daily Study
This feature is designed to be naturally utilized within daily learning (Cut off)
