91 After the road: Network Dragon to pick up online education, starting point is home school

Perhaps because Pianan Southern Fujian, when talking about online education in Beijing, many people unconsciously forget the "net Dragon" this low-key giant. But before this wave of online education heats up, net Dragon has done 591up, covered from the civil service and other professional test questions to K12 education of the entire age category, and even did K12 age and then down the mother and child products-with my own sense to describe, is "now most of the online education entrepreneur doing things, In fact, the net Dragon has tried earlier.

This is a company that last year 91 wireless to 1.9 billion U.S. dollars sold to Baidu, decided to take the road to online education, and chose the home school general tablet computer "101 classmate" + robot as a starting point.

So what is the difference between the "101 students Pie" and the electronic schoolbags and even Apple and Samsung's own tablet computer for sale to schools?

In fact, 101 students are divided into teachers and students at both ends, in the classroom teaching, the teacher may use the tablet to do the content instruction outside the auxiliary, for instance when the Chinese teacher explained a poem, he needs classroom to test the student's mastery degree, then may open the flat plate for the student to answer, when all students have completed the reply, The teacher can in his flat on the real time to see the completion of the situation, whether everyone has mastered the above content, and what doubts are needed to further explain, in order to enhance the original paper test and correction of teaching efficiency.

In other words, the 101-student school is a tablet designed specifically for K12 teaching, which is more system-controlled than the ipad and other non-teaching-specific tablets (for example, teachers can control students ' tablets in class and not allow them to turn on other apps in the system to avoid distractions).

In addition, 101 students can also be connected to real-time network data calculation and feedback, to help teachers greatly save lessons (can call the cloud resources), classroom test correction and homework to mark the time taken up, and each student has a separate account, according to their series of behavioral systems will understand his learning ability, So personalized to help him to learn, such as after class home can be for different students to fit their level of exercise, to help them do after class improvement.

So, as mentioned above, 101 students will not only be used in the classroom teaching scene, it will also be the students home after the learning tools, both home and school dual-use function. And according to the 101 students sent general manager Lin revealed that, according to the current shipments, school procurement and the proportion of students to buy their own basic is also 55 open, there may be many parents are see the school used to think the product is good, so they bought a child.

But in the long run, it is unlikely that schools will be able to buy a tablet for every level of students, so ultimately it is up to the parents to pay for it, and only if the parents are willing to buy it. But given the differences in the ability of the students to pay in one class, not everyone is likely to buy, so 101 students will pay more attention to the promotion of the one or two-line cities, and the schools in remote areas will take the lead in the form of donations to encourage other charitable funds in the community to donate to schools in poor areas.

Price, according to Lin said, at present they take the hardware cost price sale + All software free strategy shipments, within 35 years does not intend to profit from this product, at present stage because has not been large-scale production, therefore the flat cost price is about 2600 yuan, in the future they hoped the quantity production, may control the price in 1500 yuan.

In addition to the 101 students, the network Dragon in fact also developed a robot product (pictured below), the robot is composed of 101 students as the brain, plus other parts made of body parts. Lin said the robot is now more for the lower grades of students health-related scenes, they have patented sensors can be used to monitor the heartbeat of the students in half a meter, to apply to the examination room to prevent cheating or the students cold fever alarm, can inform the teacher in real time to monitor the students.

But the robot currently does not intend to roll out sales, the main production and sales of the 101 students pie. At this stage, 101 students are being tested in some schools, products are expected to be officially listed next May.

Finally, say something personal. In fact, the electronic schoolbags, or teaching flat, is not a very new concept, before many schools in the country have purchased, tried a number of electronic bag products. The most obvious problem with this type of product is that its value and benefits are not obvious, so it is difficult for schools or parents to make purchase decisions unless it has a big bright spot that distinguishes it from previous products. Or it could help teachers and schools solve problems they couldn't solve before (the net can be 2b to sell a group of products to schools may be a good positive example, because the group volume is just need and before the solution is too traditional too inefficient, it is possible to achieve the final large area spread out.

Of course, the net Dragon also has its own advantages, before the network Dragon accumulated game experience can be used to give 101 students to design a better interactive experience, but also more likely to realize the idea of gaming education, and the network Dragon now has 1000 people's team into the project on the Tablet content research and development, The precipitation of human and past experience will be one of the advantages of the 101 students ' School.
