About the project

For teachers: a RAG assistant (retrieval-⁠augmented generation: it looks things up in the textbooks before it writes) built on ChromaDB and Qwen over 543 textbooks in 14 subjects. It gives a class-⁠prep draft in under 30 seconds (measured median 18.9 s) instead of about an hour. 10+ teachers used it.

For students: a Next.js and Express app with leveled quizzes and Mermaid mind maps, used by about 150 students.

In Bijie, about 100 seventh graders in two classes took part in a class-⁠level comparison, one class per condition and not randomized. The overall test-⁠score difference was not statistically significant, so the project does not claim a learning-⁠effect improvement.

Worth knowing. A class-⁠level comparison of two classes of about 50 seventh graders, not randomized: the overall test-⁠score difference was not statistically significant, so the project does not claim a learning-⁠effect improvement.

The public demo uses synthetic data.

In the field, weak internet and server costs were real limits.
