reshaping how pupils will write and interact with teachers.
Equipped with a built-in mini camera, T-One, an Al-enabled smart pen can click up to 240 images (图像) per second, and store content handwritten on 400 A4-sized pages. Meanwhile, it can immediately digitalize students, handwritten notes, automatically evaluating their answers and potentially reducing the workload of teachers.
When students write with the smart pen on a piece of specially produced paper, which is printed with an invisible dot code pattern, the high-speed camera at the front of the pen can record the movement of the penpoint. And the pressure sensor will store all the information such as writing time and speed, and page number. Information thus collected is sent via Bluetooth to computers or other hand-held devices (设备）, which are equipped with Master Learner’s “super teacher” system. The system can automatically review students’ homework on behalf of teachers.
The system is said to be able to evaluate answers. Professor James, founder of Master Learner, said, “Handwriting has always played an irreplaceable role as a medium of interaction between teachers and students. Unlike typing on the keyboard, writing on paper is still the most preferred way in Chinese classrooms and examinations.”
According to him, the smart pen is meant to digitalize the education process, and improve efficiency (效率) while protecting the traditional writing habits. “We are starting to mass-produce the smart pen. In the future, their appearance, weight and feel will be similar to that of conventional pens,” James said hopefully, without mentioning its price. 28. What can we learn about T-One?
A. It is a newly-invented camera with mass storage.
B. It can be used to transform students’ personal information. C. It helps improve the relationship between students and teachers. D. It preserves students’ traditional writing habits regardless of its high tech. 29. What is Professor James’ attitude toward T-One’s future? A. Positive. Cautious.
30. What is the best title for the text? A. Technology Leads New Times
B. Smart Pens Attract Teachers’
B. Doubtful.
C. Sensitive.
D.
Attention
C. Interactions Come First in Education Advantage
