מחר בין 9:00 ל-11:30, נשתתף בהאקתון Re:Work של https://t.co/RfTDKBhPTp - בו 8 סטארטאפים ומיזמים יציגו את הפתרונות שלהם לאוכלוסיות שנפגעו במלחמה הנוכחית.
אנחנו גאים להיות בחזית ולרתום את הבינה המלאכותית לעשיית טוב עבור התלמידים והסטודנטים, שנמצאים כיום בתקופה קשה במיוחד.

ביום שני נהיה חלק מאירוע https://t.co/R7V0hOMijt של משרד החינוך - ונספר שם איך עוזרי ההוראה הווירטואליים שלנו יכולים לעזור לתלמידים להתגבר על החרדה, לשפר את הביטחון העצמי ולדבר אנגלית טוב יותר. גם @sorokman יהיה שם.
בואו לראות - כאן נרשמים:

We're so proud of them.
Are you joining our ride?

We're stepping in! 👟
We're proud to announce that we've been accepted into the Step-In challenge - conducted by the Levinsky-Wingate Academic Center - where our virtual humans will accompany academic courses over the next school year. Looking forward to this one!

How to encourage learners' accountability? How to improve students' spoken English skills?
One conclusion was clear: the teachers have to be partners in this process.
It was an eye-opening meeting of HiTech and education, and we're proud to be among the ones driving the change.
