Tokyo Shoseki Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kita-ku, Tokyo; President: Norio Watanabe) has launched support for the 2025 edition of the junior high school mathematics textbook, 'Shinpen Atarashii Sugaku' (New Mathematics), within its interactive AI learning service, 'Kyokasho AI Wakaru.' As of April 2026, the service covers the 'Numbers and Algebraic Expressions' domain.
'Kyokasho AI Wakaru' is a generative AI service aligned with textbooks that allows learners to ask questions about things they don't understand in their daily studies without hesitation. Through dialogue with the AI, students can organize their points of confusion, deepen their understanding step-by-step, and engage in self-regulated learning by thinking for themselves.
With this update, the service now supports junior high school mathematics in addition to the English textbook 'NEW HORIZON.' It addresses common challenges in math learning, such as 'understanding half the problem but being unable to solve it to the end' or 'not knowing if my approach is correct.'
### Key Features of the Junior High Math Version
- **Learning Along the Textbook**: Aligned with the 'Shinpen Atarashii Sugaku' textbook used in schools, the AI provides explanations following the textbook's logic and flow. Unlike general generative AI, it ensures consistency with school lessons and homework contexts.
- **Understand 'Intermediate Steps' and 'Whys' Through Dialogue**: The AI breaks down the intention behind formula transformations into small steps. It focuses on organizing the student's thoughts rather than just providing the answer.
- **Start Dialogue from Photos of Notes or Worksheets**: By uploading a photo of class notes or worksheets taken with a camera, the AI reads the content and provides explanations linked to the relevant textbook sections. This eliminates the burden of inputting complex formulas and allows students to start learning intuitively even when they can't verbalize their questions.
### What is 'Kyokasho AI Wakaru'?
'Kyokasho AI Wakaru' combines the systematic structure of textbooks with the flexible dialogue capabilities of generative AI to provide personalized learning tailored to each student's needs.
1. **Textbook-Aligned**: Since it is linked to textbooks used in schools, the explanations are clear and consistent with classroom teaching.
2. **Ask About Daily Confusion**: Students can ask about anything they don't understand in class or homework at any time. Being an AI, students feel comfortable asking questions without embarrassment.
3. **Safe and Secure Design**: Input content and dialogue data are not used for AI training, and there is a filtering function for inappropriate expressions. It is developed in compliance with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's (MEXT) guidelines for the use of generative AI in elementary and secondary education.
