Classroom and campus

Henan Open University (河南开放大学), the province’s public university for distance and lifelong learning, builds virtual teachers.

Its first digital human teacher, He Kaikai (河开开), appeared in 2022 in the university’s education metaverse, Lingjing Hekai (灵境河开); an upgraded AI digital human, He Fangfang (河方方), was the first connected to a large model and now teaches online and blended classes. The two virtual teachers were selected as a typical digital human case; the project was led by the university’s Henan engineering research centre for distance-education AI.
