Kakao Enterprise announced on the 8th that it will participate in the ‘2021 SW Education Festival’ hosted by the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity and support AI technology and services in the public education field.
This event included exhibition and lecture programs related to SW (software) and AI (artificial intelligence) for elementary, middle, and high school students and teachers. In addition, a variety of participatory classes, including video content, were prepared to strengthen teacher capabilities.
Kakao Enterprise will participate in the corporate AI education ‘LAN Class’ for elementary, middle, and high school students and hold a total of three lectures on the topic of chatbots. We plan to explain AI concepts, the process of creating chatbots, and machine learning and deep learning applied to chatbots in an easy and fun way.
The comprehensive work platform ‘Kakao Work’ is provided in this event program to help participants communicate more easily. In the teacher capacity building training program, educational Kakao Work is provided as a basic communication tool to support exchanges through video conferences and messengers.
Kakao Work for education supports optimization functions in various educational fields. These include remote classes through video conferencing, notifications through the to-do function, and efficient search through AI assistants.
A Kakao Enterprise official said, “We recognize the importance of SW and AI education and will actively support the revitalization of content and programs in the public education field.”
Meanwhile, Kakao Enterprise signed a business agreement last August with the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity and Cloud, which operates a SW specialized education platform, to cooperate in expanding and revitalizing SW and AI education. As part of this agreement, it is said that they are making efforts to expand the educational base by participating in this festival and collaborating with Kakao Games to conduct the ‘Online Coding Party Coding Sports Day with Kakao Friends’ campaign to revitalize domestic SW education.
