Learning Challenge

Proposed GenAI Solution

1

3:10pm - 3:20pm

CherSquad

Students lack continuous, on-demand support for exam preparation. Teachers face limited resources for personalized feedback, and students struggle with self-directed learning, leading to stress and inadequate test preparation.

Development of AskMe,Cher!, a GenAI-powered app  for personalized feedback based on student responses.

2

3:20pm - 3:30pm

AcuiZen

Commercial diving involves high-risk, non-routine work requiring quick access to complex equipment manuals. Traditional manuals are lengthy and hard to search, leading to potential fatal errors. Divers must stay updated on evolving equipment and procedures.

Providing a GenAI-powered platform to offer on-the-job, point-of-need access to critical information. 

3

3:30pm - 3:40pm

COL InnovJam

Current WSQ assessments are time-intensive, inconsistent, and manual. Variability among assessors affects fairness and reliability. Assessing 10–30 learners individually increases workload and introduces errors.

Development of the AI Assessment Assistant to create consistent, scalable, and reliable WSQ assessments.

4

3:40pm - 3:50pm

Diplomat Dolphins

Limited in-class time and scenarios for developing negotiation skills. Challenges include students' lack of assertiveness, difficulty managing conflict, and inability to adapt to diverse communication styles, hindering negotiation readiness.

Negotia offers immersive negotiation roleplays with real-time transcription, tone analysis, and feedback. Features include competency-based reports, dynamic simulations, real-time coaching, and frameworks like BATNA and ZOPA to enhance strategic decision-making and adaptability.

5

3:50pm - 4:00pm

Feedback Enhancer

Students struggle to provide detailed, constructive, and tactful peer feedback despite prior training. Challenges include lack of clarity, specificity, and tact in written feedback, which affects its usefulness and emotional impact.

Feedback Enhancer assists students in generating constructive, specific, and tactful peer feedback. It uses rubrics to assess and refine feedback quality. The chatbot provides guidance on improvement areas, explains why feedback is acceptable, and ideates responses for students struggling to articulate feedback.

6

4:00pm - 4:10pm

First A.I.ders

High reliance on Module Coordinators (MCs) for answering repetitive questions, leading to inefficiency and frustration among MCs and lecturers. Current chatbot lacks satisfactory responses for restricted or confidential queries, resulting in continued dependence on MCs for “urgent” queries.

First A.I.ders  addresses inefficiencies by offering real-time access to teaching resources, contextual understanding for incomplete or misspelled queries, and dynamic knowledge base integration. The system ensures secure deployment and improved accessibility, enabling lecturers to resolve queries independently.

7

4:10pm - 4:20pm

TailorMath

Adapting mathematical learning packages for adult learners with varying foundations and professional backgrounds is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Lecturers face challenges in scaling and tailoring learning packages for different disciplines effectively.

TailorEdX automates the generation of personalized learning packages. Features include domain-specific embeddings, difficulty modulation, and transformer-based models to create scalable, field-specific content. TailorEdX enables customization of learning materials by adapting complexity levels and field relevance, significantly reducing lecturers' workload.

8

4:20pm - 4:30pm

MarkMate

Ensuring fair, consistent, and objective grading across large module teams is time-consuming and manual, with challenges in providing immediate feedback, managing grading inconsistencies, and analyzing grading patterns and outliers.

MarkMate, a customized AI-powered chatbot automates the marking standardization process. It provides real-time feedback, explanations, and Power BI analytics for grading alignment. Designed for scalability, it streamlines grading workflows, enhances consistency, and reduces manual effort.

9

4:30pm - 4:40pm

SIP/OSIP

Lecturers teaching Design Thinking (DT) face challenges with physical toolkits. The toolkits limit flexibility, real-time adaptability, and alignment with digital tools, leading to inefficiencies in teaching DT concepts effectively and consistently.

Design Thinking AI Toolkit  offers real-time guidance, interactive templates, facilitation guides, and integration with digital tools. It enhances accessibility, consistency, and flexibility in DT pedagogy by enabling dynamic updates, feedback collection, and resource customization for seamless teaching experiences.

10

4:40pm - 4:50pm

SP EDU

Traditional professional development (PD) lacks personalization, interactivity, and continuity. Educators face challenges in accessing just-in-time resources and sustaining engagement with short-term workshops and generic content.

Pedagotchi provides personalized learning pathways, interactive just-in-time support, and ongoing development. The solution transforms PD into a continuous, practical, and engaging experience aligned with individual teaching needs.

11

4:50pm - 5:00pm

AiMAEzing

Current assessment methods are linear, lacking adaptivity to students' diverse needs and failing to provide personalized learning experiences. Educators lack tools for timely intervention and insights for targeted support.

A GenAI-powered Adaptive Quiz, features include adaptive question mechanisms, personalized learning profiles, automated feedback, and educator insights. Questions dynamically adjust based on learner responses, categorizing strengths and weaknesses. GenAI generates tailored quiz questions and provides personalized feedback and learning resources.

12

5:00pm - 5:10pm

SPotLite

Lecturers face challenges analyzing and responding to students' learning needs in real-time during online or hybrid lessons. Limited insights into participation and data patterns hinder personalized support, and many students hesitate to engage directly, affecting understanding and curriculum improvement.

EEE (Engage, Empower, and Enhance) Learning with AI-driven Insights, leveraging AI for summarization, thematic segmentation, personalized quiz generation, and contextual activity insights. This solution aims to improve engagement, empower lecturers with actionable insights, and enhance learning outcomes through adaptive support and curriculum adjustments.

13

5:10pm - 5:20pm

Team CCCR

CET programme reviews involve analyzing large, diverse datasets to ensure quality and relevance. Challenges include inefficiencies in data consolidation, qualitative and quantitative analysis, and alignment with SkillsFuture frameworks and industry standards.

A CET Course Review Assistant, features include automated transcription, summarization, data visualization, skills mapping, and slide generation to streamline the review process. AI-driven insights enhance efficiency, alignment, and actionable reporting for curriculum improvement.

14

5:20pm - 5:30pm

XIOHOO

High cost and resource constraints in creating and converting learning materials into multiple languages. The process is inefficient, and current tools are confusing for learners.

XIOHOO AI, a GenAI platform designed to transform content into personalized, interactive learning experiences. Features include study guides, quizzes, detailed responses, and context-rich sessions tailored to learners' regions and preferences. The platform employs adaptive methodologies, leveraging frameworks like Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction and Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle to ensure engagement and retention.
