On the afternoon of April 2, the AI Lighthouse Initiative – 2026 Education Ling Summit was successfully held at Ningbo High-tech Zone Experimental School in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province.

The summit brought together education authorities from Ningbo, school principals, teaching researchers, representatives from educational technology enterprises, and frontline educators to engage in in-depth discussions on "Digital Intelligence Empowering K12 Innovation," exploring collaborative pathways between digital intelligence technologies and the essence of education.

Promoting Synergistic Development of AI and Education

Huang Jiyan, Deputy Director of the Intelligent Education Committee of the Ningbo Artificial Intelligence Society, stated in his speech that AI is reshaping the educational ecosystem. As a demonstration zone for smart education, Ningbo should actively embrace technological advancements while adhering to the principle of "people-centered" development, promoting synergistic growth between technology and education. He expressed hopes that the summit would uncover new approaches for AI to empower education.

Building the "Gao Shi Ling" Smart Campus Matrix

School Principal Shu Xiaocui shared the school's achievements as a pilot institution for artificial intelligence in Zhejiang Province. Leveraging the Lingdang platform, they developed the "Gao Shi Ling" smart campus system, achieving full-scenario digitization in teaching, management, and evaluation—ensuring student growth is visible, recorded, and nurtured.

Demonstrating Applications of the "Wukong" Intelligent Agent Platform

Shen Penghui, Head of Lingdang Education’s East China & Sichuan-Chongqing Region at Alibaba, systematically explained the symbiotic cycle of "data-model-execution" in the AI era. He highlighted capabilities such as "AI Note-taking" and the "Wukong Intelligent Agent," comprehensively demonstrating the secure and efficient application of Lingdang’s Wukong Intelligent Agent platform in lesson preparation, teaching research, and application development, helping teachers improve efficiency and reduce workload.

Implementing Over Ten AI Application Scenarios

Principal Zhao Dihui showcased the practical applications of the "Gao Shi Ling" digital intelligence brain, covering over ten functions including AI-powered homework grading, comprehensive evaluation of "Sunshine Students," and AI sports refereeing. The system enables data to be entered once and shared across the network, significantly reducing teachers' administrative burden related to form-filling.

Campus Brain: Visible and Computable

Lao Fashi, senior expert at Lingdang Education, emphasized that the core of the Campus Brain lies in being “visible and computable.” Through tools like AI-based form filling and AR consultation, it helps teachers save several hours per week on repetitive tasks, allowing them to return to the true essence of education.

Using DingTalk: Before & After

Before

  • × Team Chaos: Team members are all busy with their own tasks, standards are inconsistent, and the more communication there is, the more chaotic things become, leading to decreased motivation.
  • × Info Silos: Important information is scattered across WhatsApp/group chats, emails, Excel spreadsheets, and numerous apps, often resulting in lost, missed, or misdirected messages.
  • × Manual Workflow: Tasks are still handled manually: approvals, scheduling, repair requests, store visits, and reports are all slow, hindering frontline responsiveness.
  • × Admin Burden: Clocking in, leave requests, overtime, and payroll are handled in different systems or calculated using spreadsheets, leading to time-consuming statistics and errors.

After

  • Unified Platform: By using a unified platform to bring people and tasks together, communication flows smoothly, collaboration improves, and turnover rates are more easily reduced.
  • Official Channel: Information has an "official channel": whoever is entitled to see it can see it, it can be tracked and reviewed, and there's no fear of messages being skipped.
  • Digital Agility: Processes run online: approvals are faster, tasks are clearer, and store/on-site feedback is more timely, directly improving overall efficiency.
  • Automated HR: Clocking in, leave requests, and overtime are automatically summarized, and attendance reports can be exported with one click for easy payroll calculation.
