At the meeting, in view of the main contradiction faced by China's education at present, that is, the growing demand for personalized, high-quality, flexible and lifelong education of students, and the current school-based, standardized, class-based, single-channel service supply model. Yu Shengquan, executive director of the Advanced Innovation Center for Future Education of Beijing Normal University, pointed out that giving full play to the innovative potential of digital technology is the key to breaking through the problems and dilemmas in key links of education.
Wang Junjie, general manager of SSG Industrial Intelligence Business Department of Lenovo Group, also stressed that digital transformation is becoming an important engine and key feature to promote education modernization and high-quality development. As a new IT service provider covering all the elements of end-edge-cloud-network-intelligence, Lenovo is also actively contributing to national education through innovative technologies, and promoting the digitalization of education through the technological changes at the bottom of IT and the 3S full-stack service capabilities of smart devices, infrastructure and solution services.

New IT has opened the foundation of education.
Digital transformation of Lenovo's first-line service education
On June 5438+ 10 this year, the Ministry of Education held a national education work conference, which assigned seven major tasks for education in 2022, among which "Implementing the Strategic Action of Education Digitization" made a new appearance. The national education system is taking education informatization as the strategic commanding height of development. It has become an inevitable trend to promote the high-quality development of education with educational informatization and lead the comprehensive digital transformation of educational modernization with educational informatization. However, the transformation of digital education is not achieved overnight. Recognizing the digitalization of education and focusing on the pain points of transformation will help to further promote the implementation of education reform.
At the meeting, Yu Shengquan made an in-depth interpretation of the digitalization of education.
"The digital transformation of education is to continuously deepen the optimization and integration of the new generation of information technology in the allocation of educational elements, deeply integrate the innovation achievements of digital technology into all elements, businesses, fields and processes of education, stimulate the driving potential of data element innovation, and enhance the innovation and productivity of educational organizations. The process of realizing a new educational ecology based on digital information as infrastructure and implementation tools and oriented to the cultivation of innovative talents. "
Yu Shengquan pointed out that the digitalization of education can be interpreted from two levels.
First, technological change promotes change, and educational change has experienced informationization and networking, and is entering the intelligent stage. In the future, we will focus on providing intelligence, have an active intelligent environment, and provide human-computer collaborative educational intelligence services.
The second level is from the perspective of educational business, which is also the core feature of digital transformation, namely business innovation, model innovation and ecological innovation. Relying on the deep integration of intelligent technology and education, the future will be man-machine cooperation-the educational intelligence of business innovation; Talent training mode will realize large-scale personalized mode innovation; The integration of physical space+cyberspace+social space forms a new educational ecology-ecological innovation, in which virtual reality is integrated and virtual reality interaction is fully integrated into the school. Yu Shengquan emphasized that the core of educational digitalization points to the change of business process, educational form and educational ecological concept. In the ubiquitous intelligent environment, the future is bound to be a new way of running schools, new talent training, new education management and education services. This is the core direction and appeal of change.
Commercial innovation and ecological innovation are bound to meet the needs of market development. Wang, editor-in-chief of Blue Whale Education, said that with the normalization of online teaching and the enrichment of intelligent teaching hardware, teachers need more systematic digital teaching services, such as the service system for teaching management evaluation and personalized application services for preparing lessons.
"I think the next step of digitalization should be to be able to get through all interfaces from the bottom, get through all suppliers, provide an overall data base, and then provide services in service providers that can coordinate teaching management, evaluation and testing of all teaching ecosystems."
In addition to the systematic service of digital education, another major demand pain point is the obstacle of the integration of technology and application. Integrated marketing and pre-sale of Lenovo China Key Customer Business Group; Zhang Yanli, senior delivery manager, mentioned that in the survey of colleges and universities, although some schools have 100% educational information products, such as intelligent interactive large screen and lesson preparation software, only 20% teachers use them, and the product functions are less than 1%. Complex product technology has not really taken root in application requirements and solved teachers' problems.

New IT has opened the foundation of education.
Digital transformation of Lenovo's first-line service education
How to provide a complete data base from the bottom, and then build a systematic service of teaching ecology? How to simplify complex product design and really serve teachers and students? Lenovo, which has been developing educational informatization in China for nearly 20 years, has given its own answer.
Lenovo has been deeply involved in the whole process from the early distance education project, to the "three links and two platforms" construction of educational informatization 1.0, and then to the "three all, two highs and one big" informatization 2.0, and has successfully provided 200,000 schools with full-stack services from equipment, solutions to consultation. As a rare new IT service provider with full coverage of end-edge-cloud-network-intelligence in the industry, Lenovo not only has the underlying technical support capability, but also can build the top-level design capability in the field of smart education by relying on the new IT kernel "Qingtian" intelligent engine, and build the full-stack service capability through 3S intelligent equipment, infrastructure and solution services to meet the construction needs of the education service ecosystem.
"Now we have to realize the digital transformation and intelligent upgrade of education. In addition to some technical means such as the top-level design capability of the overall solution and the opening of the application platform, we fundamentally need to let front-line teachers use information infrastructure and applications, so that front-line teachers can start digital transformation. "
Lenovo Zhang Yuli said. The digitalization of education is supported by the construction of educational service ecology and the real application of educational information products, both of which are indispensable.
In the roundtable forum on digital transformation and new impetus of Lenovo's new IT education, the guests from left to right are Wang Chuan, Secretary General of Lenovo Education Think Tank, Yu Shengquan, Executive Director of Beijing Normal University's Advanced Innovation Center for Future Education, Wang, Editor-in-Chief of Blue Whale Education, and Zhang Yuli, Senior Manager of Integrated Marketing and Pre-sales & Delivery of Lenovo's China Key Customer Business Group.
Rooted in the front line of education, Lenovo began to think more deeply from the usability, applicability and ex ante of information application products. For data tracing, storage, mining and analysis, it is also necessary to design closer to the concept of education and teaching, and guide the reform of education and teaching by means of information technology. Based on this, Lenovo established a digital campus solution, covering customized application scenarios such as digital physical and chemical experiment examination room and virtual simulation experiment. In the recently released Lenovo Teaching and Research 1+ solution, we focus on two core scenarios: teacher preparation and classroom teaching to help teachers prepare lessons efficiently and improve teaching effect.
In fact, based on the core technologies such as blockchain, visual speech processing, NLP and machine learning, Lenovo has built a basic service architecture "Le-Learning Platform" and a diversified data center, and also built four smart campus, smart campus, smart classroom and smart training programs for different teaching application scenarios, serving K 12, vocational schools and. At the same time, for the subdivided scenes, Lenovo has established 72 modular systems, covering teaching and research systems, resource systems, educational administration and management systems, and teaching systems. Through the combination of three-dimensional building blocks, the whole educational scene is digitized.
At the event site, Pei Shiyang, director of the Education Big Data Center in neixiang county, Henan Province, also shared the practical case of Lenovo taking root in Neixiang. Neixiang county, located in Nanshan District, southwest of Henan Province, is a state-level poverty-stricken county in Qin-Ba contiguous poverty-stricken areas, and the potential of traditional education is close to the limit. With the support and guidance of neixiang county Municipal Committee and County Education and Sports Bureau, Lenovo led experts to find out the current situation of front-line education for more than ten times, and created a smart education operation mode of "four clouds, one platform" and "one group and two centers", covering 296 primary and secondary schools in the county. Lenovo provides schools with a series of educational applications, such as educational resource platform, smart classroom, large teaching screen and smart campus, to help schools, teachers, students and parents realize real smart education.
In addition to the school plan of neixiang county Smart School District, many Lenovo smart education cases such as Luohu Future School, Beijing Normal University Smart Classroom and Qilu University of Technology have successively landed. Now Lenovo has reached 200,000 school customers in more than 140 cities in 365,438 provinces across the country, and is rapidly growing into an enabler to promote the digital transformation and intelligent upgrading of education.
At present, the digitalization of education is no longer a single-point solution to a certain scene problem, but requires educational digitalization service enterprises to go deep into every specific application scene, accurately solve the actual pain points, and use intelligent technology to create customized and full-stack service education teaching scenes to form an ecosystem of educational digitalization. This year, just at the beginning of the strategic action of education digitalization, according to incomplete statistics, the education departments of 26 provinces and cities across the country have put forward phased implementation outlines and written them into government work reports. The overall digital transformation of education in China has become an inevitable trend. In the future, Lenovo will continue to dig deep into the front line, effectively solve the problem of front-line teachers and students, and promote the digitalization of education in China.
