Foremost edtech company in Nigeria, uLesson Education has launched an AI-powered homework help feature recently in an effort to provide a more efficient and exceptional solution to the thousands of learners on its app.
This development highlights uLesson’s dedication to making high-quality education accessible to students throughout Nigeria and Africa.
The previous homework help feature, which relied on manual input, lacked the scalability required to meet the diverse and growing needs of students on the uLesson app. To address this, uLesson has taken a significant step forward to integrate OpenAI’s latest advancement, Chat GPT-4o.
uLesson K-12’s Chief Executive Officer, Ayooluwa Nihinlola said, “The latest advancement in artificial intelligence from OpenAI provides us with important leverage. By integrating this powerful AI into our homework help feature, we can provide students with instant, accurate, and personalised assistance.”
The new AI-powered homework help feature allows students to receive immediate assistance, reducing delays and enabling continuous learning. It also tailors responses to each student’s individual needs, considering their unique learning styles and pace. In addition, the AI ensures high-quality support across all subjects and topics, thereby maintaining high educational standards.
Understanding the unique educational needs in Nigeria and Africa, uLesson has taken specific steps to ensure the AI is suitable for this demographic. AI responses are tailored to the specific curriculum requirements of primary and secondary schools in Africa. Also, filters have been put in place to block inappropriate language, ensuring a positive and supportive learning environment. AI questions and prompts are also designed to be relevant and appropriate for the African educational environment.
The Ask by uLesson app, which launched a year ago, has been very valuable for students needing academic assistance. Because of its success, uLesson decided to integrate its features into the main uLesson app, thereby streamlining services and providing a unified, seamless user experience. This integration will also result in more efficient and excellent educational support.
The integration of AI into uLesson’s homework help feature marks the beginning of a new journey for uLesson. The extensive content and data, combined with the deep understanding of the African education system, give uLesson a significant advantage in developing impactful AI-powered products.
