SHANGHAI, Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On September 21, 2024, Squirrel Ai Learning hosted a Guinness World Record™ challenge, attracting 112,718 students across China to join an online math lesson. This unprecedented participation secured a new record for “the most users to take an online mathematics lesson in 24 hours”.

The certificate presentation took place during Squirrel Ai Learning’s Annual Marketing Conference on October 29. Guinness World Records official adjudicator Wu Xiaohong awarded the certificate to Wei Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Squirrel Ai Learning, cementing the company’s status as the record holder.

At the ceremony, Ms. Wu said, “It’s a pleasure to be in Lijiang to present Squirrel Ai Learning with the Guinness World Record certificate. On behalf of Guinness World Records, I am proud to announce that Squirrel Ai Learning organized 112,718 participants for an online math lesson in Shanghai from September 21 to 22, 2024, earning the title for the most users to take an online mathematics lesson in 24 hours. Congratulations on this remarkable achievement!”

Mr. Zhou expressed his gratitude to Guinness World Records for the recognition and opportunity, as well as to all Squirrel Ai Learning students who contributed to this historic feat.

As a leading edtech unicorn in China, Squirrel Ai Learning utilized its AI-powered tutoring system during the challenge, enabling over 110,000 students to achieve significant learning milestones and ushering in a new era of AI in education.

Squirrel Ai Learning’s AI Teachers Demonstrate Impressive Learning Outcomes

Sam Altman, OpenAI’s founder, once noted, “The difference between classroom education and one-on-one tutoring is like two standard deviations – unbelievable difference. Most people just can’t afford one-on-one tutoring… If we can combine one-on-one tutoring to every child with the things that only a human teacher can provide, the sort of support, I think that combination is just going to be incredible for education.”

Squirrel Ai Learning shares this vision, and its Guinness World Record challenge, engaging 112,718 students, highlighted AI’s vast potential in education.

At the conference, Dr. Joleen Liang, co-founder of Squirrel Ai Learning, delivered a keynote on the Guinness World Record challenge.

To validate the challenge’s impact, iResearch, a renowned third-party institution, released the Empirical Research report on the Effectiveness of Squirrel Ai Adaptive Learning System: A Guinness Challenge Project.

Squirrel Ai Learning’s AI teachers excelled in personalized instruction, enhancing students’ knowledge mastery, answer accuracy, and overall capability.

Throughout the challenge, Squirrel Ai Learning’s adaptive learning system crafted 108,435 unique learning avenues for 112,718 students, ensuring a tailored educational experience. This personalization allowed the system to align learning strategies closely with individual performance and needs.

The adaptive system designed 111,704 unique exercise pathways for 112,718 students, covering 99.1% of the student population. This nearly one-to-one ratio highlights the system’s exceptional personalized teaching capabilities, ensuring each student receives a customized learning strategy. Dr. Liang noted that the adaptive learning module used throughout the Guinness World Record challenge encompassed just 2 hours of learning and that with more time the personalization rate would undoubtedly reach 100%.

This approach not only addressed knowledge acquisition but also personalized exercise practice, achieving efficient and precise learning outcomes.

The adaptive system’s personalized instruction yielded instant results. iResearch reports significant improvements in students’ knowledge mastery and answer accuracy across both synchronized and supplementary learning modules.

In synchronized learning, the average mastery level soared from 41.6% to 85.1%, a 43.5% increase. Supplementary learning saw a 42.4% improvement, rising from 32.3% to 74.7%.

Answer accuracy also skyrocketed. In synchronized learning, it climbed from 22.1% to 87.0%, a 64.9% jump. Supplementary learning witnessed an astonishing 80.8% increase, rising from just 2.1% to 82.9%.

These findings highlight the adaptive system’s ability to not only improve learning outcomes but also pinpoint knowledge gaps through the supplementary module, ensuring substantial gains in mastery and accuracy after targeted learning.

Furthermore, parents have a keen interest in their children’s skill development.

Within the adaptive learning system, each question is tagged with specific abilities, including numerical intuition, reasoning, symbolic perception, and application.

Using these tags, the system efficiently tracks student performance across various dimensions and evaluates progress in each area pre- and post-learning.

The adaptive system markedly improved students’ learning outcomes, boosting accuracy rates in reasoning and application by 16.8% and 11.6% respectively, highlighting its substantial efficacy in enhancing diverse learning abilities.

Squirrel Ai Learning’s AI teachers, through this challenge, presented a compelling data-driven case study, offering invaluable insights and a strong value proposition for the deployment and proliferation of AI in education.

Squirrel Ai Learning Advances Personalized Learning Innovation

Despite AI’s growing presence in education, China’s AI education landscape faces notable hurdles, with implementation challenges hindering the widespread adoption of personalized learning.

To overcome these barriers and drive AI in education forward, Squirrel Ai Learning has consistently invested heavily in both financial and human resources.

The technology has earned widespread acclaim from parents, students, and educators.

Meanwhile, Squirrel Ai Learning’s extensive network of physical stores provides robust commercial backing for its multimodal adaptive learning offerings. With 2,000+ smart learning tablet stores across China, Squirrel Ai Learning boasts the largest retail footprint among AI learning device brands in the country.

Looking ahead, Squirrel Ai Learning remains committed to further exploring and expanding the potential of AI in education, striving to grant more children access to top-notch educational resources.

PARIS, Jan. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — It is with deep sadness that iM Global Partner (iMGP) announces the passing, one month ago, of our dear friend and colleague, Philippe Uzan.

 

 

Philippe’s exceptional career in asset management spanned more than 30 years and is marked by remarkable achievements in the organizations for which he worked and deep contributions to the industry as a whole. His passing is a tremendous loss to all who knew and worked with him.

Philippe joined iM Global Partner in February 2020 as Deputy CEO and CIO Global Asset Management, responsible for overseeing our financial strategies and products and designing value-added investment solutions for our clients across Europe and the United States.

His expertise spanned all asset classes, and he had a deep understanding of markets and their impact on investors and their investment needs. He was an eloquent man who contributed a number of papers and articles to the media, always with the intention of educating and making financial concepts more relatable. He has left an indelible mark on our organization and on the broader industry.

Prior to joining iM Global Partner, Philippe was latterly Chief Investment Officer at Edmond De Rothschild Asset Management, where he worked for 11 years and where he led the portfolio management teams, optimizing the synergies between analysis and portfolio management. He previously spent three years as Research and Global Asset Allocation Director, where he developed the portfolio management and research teams and modernized investment processes and the product range.

Philippe began his career as an Equity Derivatives Trader at Société Générale and held roles at AGF Asset Management (now part of Allianz Global Investors) and Natixis AM.

Throughout his career, Philippe’s outstanding intelligence, humility, and collaborative spirit earned him the respect and admiration of his peers.

Philippe Couvrecelle, Founder and CEO of iM Global Partner, expressed his heartfelt condolences: “It was with infinite sadness and pain that I learned of Philippe’s passing from a devastating illness. I had known Philippe closely for almost 20 years, as we worked together for Natixis, Edmond de Rothschild and iMGP. I pay immense tribute to his humanity, his sense of humor, his brilliant intelligence and his presence, which I will deeply miss. We had shared so much and still had so much to do together. In his memory, we will continue our path forward with strength, success and intensity, always preserving our values and our company culture to which he was so attached.

We will all miss Philippe enormously at iM Global Partner. He will be remembered not only for his professional achievements but also for his warmth, generosity, kindness and his unwavering dedication to his colleagues and community. Our thoughts are with his wife and three children, his family, friends and loved ones during this difficult time.”
