Technology empowers educational revitalization, and Dejiang No. 2 Middle School uses big data to explore the construction of smart campuses.

Summary : Parents go out to work in other places, and their children study in their hometown. How can the education problem be solved? Parents are too busy with work, and their children board at school. How can parents be assured about the accommodation? To solve the difficulties of family-school interaction for many left-behind children, Dejiang County No. 2 Middle School has comprehensively upgraded its teaching and living facilities this year. In partnership with Guannbiao Technology, it actively builds a smart campus using internet big data.

     Parents go out to work, children study in their hometown. How can education issues be solved?
     Parents are too busy with work, children board at school. How can accommodation issues reassure parents?
     To solve the difficulties of home-school interaction for many left-behind children, Dejiang County No. 2 Middle School has fully upgraded its teaching and living facilities this year, joining hands with Guantai Technology, using Internet big data, and actively building a smart campus.

       Dejiang County No. 2 Middle School is located at the foot of Ma'an Mountain in the northern suburbs of the county seat. At its inception, with only 6 classrooms and 2 simple work shed offices, it welcomed its first batch of students and embarked on a difficult journey of running a school. In August 1992, the school moved to the former site of Dejiang Normal School. In 2016, in order to effectively improve educational conditions and enhance education quality, the Dejiang County Party Committee and County Government invested 255 million yuan to plan and build the new Dejiang No. 2 Middle School with high standards, and achieved the overall relocation in August 2018. Since 2021, Dejiang No. 2 Middle School has introduced big data, gradually making the teaching and accommodation environment intelligent.

Campus Management System: Building Digital and Intelligent Teaching

Now, the newly built Dejiang No.2 Middle School covers an area of 200 mu, with a total building area of 76,000 square meters and a green area of 15,600 square meters. At present, the school has 70 teaching classes, 3,874 students, and 269 faculty members. The qualification rate of full-time teachers' academic credentials reaches 100%, with 1 foreign English teacher and 4 Japanese teachers. The school uses the campus management system of Guanyu Technology to achieve big data monitoring of student statistics, class management, teaching task status, and homework distribution, improving teaching standards and learning quality.

Through the campus management system, home-school information interaction is carried out, and on-demand query of school affairs can be realized. Face recognition is used when students arrive at or leave school, and the big data center automatically feeds back the information of students' arrival or departure to parents. Teachers can also inform parents of students' performance, attendance, grades, and consumption through the system, allowing parents to easily grasp their children's dynamics at school. At the same time, the campus management system allows parents to remotely understand their children's learning, living, and rest conditions. If a child is sick and needs to take leave, parents can sign remotely; parents are informed of their children's academic performance at the first time; through dormitory schedule data, reminders can be analyzed and sent to children to pay attention to rest.

Dormitory voice-activated paging system: return tranquility to the dormitory

If teachers do not rest well, it will affect teaching; if students do not rest well, it will affect learning. In order to better supervise students' regular rest and reduce teachers' workload, Dejiang No. 2 Middle School cooperated with Guanbiao Technology to jointly build a dormitory voice-activated paging system based on the actual campus management, promoting cloud computing and other new technologies to lead smart campus management.
"This smart management system has really helped our campus management a lot," said the director of the Information Center. Previously, the school had set up a supervision team to ensure students rested better. However, with over 600 dormitories and more than 3,000 students across the school, it was impossible to manage effectively, and the results were not ideal. Especially at night, teachers who had already finished their evening classes were exhausted, yet they still had to check the dormitories to see if students were resting on time.

Dejiang No. 2 Middle School has integrated the dormitory voice-activated paging system into the smart management of student dormitories. Through continuous exploration and experimentation, the school has controlled the noise level in student dormitories to 55 decibels. That is, from 12:30 to 14:00 daily and from 23:30 to 2:35 the next morning, the set decibel value is 55, and the system automatically collects data every ten seconds. If the noise in a certain dormitory exceeds 55 decibels, the dormitory receiver will transmit the information through the dormitory voice-activated paging system to dormitory management staff, class teachers, the school information management center, and the school's supervising leaders. Management personnel can then go to the student dormitory to check based on the system prompt, or use the mobile paging system to send a point-to-point voice to that dormitory, warning the students who are making noise, thus restoring peace to the campus.

The campus management system and the dormitory voice-controlled paging system are just the beginning of smart campus construction. In the future, Guantiao Technology will also collaborate with more schools to explore smart campuses under big data, giving parents peace of mind, making teachers comfortable, and helping children win the future.
