Korea University of Technology and Education has built an AI-based personalized student learning and growth support platform, 'K-LXP (Koreatech Learning eXperience Platform),' the first of its kind developed in-house by a domestic university, and began full-scale service with the start of the new semester in March.

According to Korea University of Technology and Education on March 6, K-LXP is an AI-based platform that expands on the traditional Learning Management System (LMS). It analyzes extensive learning and student data to support self-directed learning tailored to each individual’s goals and competency levels.

The university began research and development in July 2023 and conducted a pilot run in 30 courses during the second semester of last year. During the pilot, 23 instructors and 885 students participated, and based on this experience, the platform has been fully implemented starting this year.

The platform offers a variety of learning support features, including: ▲ a personalized dashboard for viewing academic information at a glance ▲ an AI question bank, 'DRAGON,' which generates problems by keyword and provides solutions and explanations ▲ an AI chatbot that responds to academic, administrative, and learning inquiries ▲ the video-based learning service 'HanTube' ▲ and functions for managing curricular and extracurricular schedules.

In particular, through the AI chatbot, students can use generative AI services such as Gemini, ChatGPT, and Claude free of charge.

Additionally, by integrating with the academic system in real time, administrative processes such as online attendance and grade transmission are automated. The system is also designed so that class materials and student assignments are automatically linked with the academic system, reducing the administrative burden on faculty members.

Ji-Young Woo, a fourth-year student in the School of Business Administration, said, "It helps my studies because it organizes all my course lectures at once, and I can freely use generative AI as well."

Chaeheon Ahn, Director of the Office of Future Education Innovation, explained, "It is especially significant that the faculty participated in the planning and design, making this an AI learning platform independently developed by the university."

The university plans to enhance personalized service features such as learning recommendations and real-time learning support, and to integrate career portfolios, employment information, and counseling services, thereby establishing a comprehensive student growth support system from enrollment to employment.

President Gil-Sang Yoo stated, "Through a data-driven learning environment, students can grow independently, and the university has established a foundation for more efficient educational management. We will continue to advance the platform to best support student growth."
