Outline
Challenge 1 – Highly unbalanced education resource deployment
China’s higher education “985 program”• 39 top (among ~2000 )universities entitled
• Biased government funding and research grants
Unequal distribution by provinceNo. of 985 program universities
Province
10 Beijing
3 Shanghai, Hubei, Shaanxi, Hunan
2 Jiangshu, Tianjin, Liaonin, Shichuan, Shangdong
1 Anhui, Zhejing, Helongjiang, Fujian, Gangsu, Congqing, Jilin
0 Remaining 15 provinces
disproportional admission opportunity to top universities
• Tsinghua University's 2010 by-province admission plan
How technologies can help tackle this problem?
Province Assigned quota Population
Beijing 243 197M
Zhejiang 42 517M

Skyclass – Mitigate geographical education resource gap
Ning XiaUniversity
IP network for interactivity
Tibet University
Satellite link for multimedia content
broadcast
SJTU
Augmented Standard Natural Classroom
Innovation: Right mix of transmission technologies
PPClass – P2P Streaming based live lecture broadcast system
Traditional way to deliver live lecture
P2P Streaming
Issue: Need huge bandwidth and server cost
when scale-up
Advantage: scale-up easily with only marginal burden
on server
www.go2class.net – Open access to SJTU continuing education, powered
by PPClass technology
Innovation: Open the access of premium education resource to massive audience with a scalable and cost-effective streaming
media technology
Challenge 2 - Lack of accessible form of life-long learning for working adults
Huge demand of life-long learning in China• Current educational demographic vs “economic
structure upgrade” mission
However, most working adults are unable to squeeze time to come to a formal class!
Mobile learning will be a natural fit for life-long education!
MobiClass – access live lecture/recorded lecture from smart phones
Download at kiosk
Download from web site
Live streaming
Support all major Symbian phones
PPClass Mobile – m-Learning on the new generation of smart phones
Touch screen operation
Support Android (iPhone support is coming)
Today’s Learning Management Systems (LMS):Lack of information about the user across learning
systems and learning contexts
Learner/teacher cannot choose learning services
Intelligent infrastructure incorporating widgets and existing LMSs across system boundaries
The ROLE Approach – right on track
truly personalizing learning
