Periodic Reporting for period 1 - LINGOKIDS 2.0 (LINGOKIDS 2.0: THE BEST ADAPTIVE PLATFORM FOR SELF-DIRECTED HOME EDUCATION IN EARLY CHILDHOOD)

Teaser

Summary

Technology is transforming both how students learn and teachers teach. With the advent of technology, that model is changing and new methods of learning are being introduced, such as blended learning or flipped classroom.
Children learn through play and exploration, but not every child learns at the same pace or in the same way, and their preferences and abilities differ from one to another (multiple intelligences).
So a customized teaching strategy is crucial to optimise learning, as well as motivation and engagement, where novel technologies are critical to reach a scalable, cost-effective solution.
LINGOKIDS platform is aimed at creating the best home learning platform for the future early childhood education, suitable for blended learning strategies.
The game-changing experience that LINGOKIDS brings into the market is our AI-driven adaptive learning technology that personalise the learning path to each child based on their level, preferences on the type of lessons (multiple intelligences).
The adaptive approach is supported by our scientific-backed methodology (Ludic Learning Method).
Our methodology and underlying technology is being created to respond to the singularities of early childhood education.
With a head start in the billion-dollar market of language learning market, with English as the priority language to position our company in the market, in the mid and long term, new verticals (other languages and different subjects) will be added following the same methodology and availing on the underlying adaptive technology we are developing.
With the Lingokids 2.0 project we intent to evolve our platform in terms of adaptive capabilities and optimise it for blended learning strategies by educators.

Work performed

We successfully improved the adaptive capabilities of the AI-driven Customisation Engine by shifting from the previous linear adaptation strategy to a more comprehensive and flexible one and created an adapted version of LINGOKIDS app to optimise blended learning use for educators.
We have produced a beta-version of the envisaged LINGOKIDS platform with its full scope to be ready for demonstration under operational conditions.

Final results

Lingokids intends to disrupt the way young children learn in a self-directed, fun and personalized way. We are developing an interactive learning method easy to use, with learning-effectiveness & high children-engagement through state of the art content.
Furthermore, Lingokids will provide the ultimate solution for educators to easily manage, track and deliver personalized learning plans for their students.
We strongly believe that the Lingokids 2.0 project directly addresses the current phenomena of digitalisation that educational institutions around the world are undergoing.
LINGOKIDSâ€™ methodology and curriculum development aligns with the theory of Multiple Intelligence, therefore boosting the development of key cognitive skills for children, autonomy and self-confidence.
Traditional curriculums have sometimes fallen short of covering multiple intelligences in early learning paradigms and LINGOKIDS program addresses this challenge in global education.
Today the society is aware of the relevance and need for acquiring language skills from early childhood, but only few segments of society can afford the costs of supervised approaches, especially in the developing countries.
Millions of children everywhere do not have access to native English teachers or cannot afford the price of a bilingual education or private classes.
As a consequence, affordable digital solutions like mobile apps and platforms are proliferating with different market success but lacks on a real self-directed approach and smart adaptation features for a real personalization of the learning path that LINGOKIDS guarantee, and very few are based on a rigorous scientific research as LINGOKIDS is. In addition, LINGOKIDS directly impacts on children integration and employability in a globalised world, helping to overcome gender and socio-economic barriers when accessing to quality language learning education, taking down language barriers for children, and thus providing equal opportunities for all kids around the world.
