Meet aleX
Made up of three distinct parts, the Digital Learning Assistant (QBot), Analytics Engine and Provisioning Engine work together to engage your community with a focus on the experience for students, educators and the institution.
Digital Learning Assistant
At the core of the aleX platform is a sophisticated Digital Learning Assistant, QBot. Originally developed to enhance remote learning and promote a sense of community between educators and students during the COVID-19 pandemic, QBot uses AI (artificial intelligence) and machine learning to:
- Automate the response to common questions, by creating a centralised self-building knowledge base that leverages the questions from, and interactions with, all students to accelerate the acquisition of knowledge
- Leverage AI to provide teaching staff with proactive recommendations for teaching interventions that can address individual student needs
Analytics Engine
Designed to track engagement, the in-built Analytics Engine presents data to both students and educators using custom dashboards that can:
- Highlight the overall engagement of each student
- Track workgroups and collaboration partners within each student group
- Identify centres of influence with each team
- Highlight potential areas of concern for ‘at risk’ students
- Allow teaching staff to make informed decisions about each student and how to deliver improved outcomes
Provisioning Engine
Integrating directly into your institution’s LMS (learning management system), the provisioning engine helps:
- Reduce the workload on Teaching and IT Staff to administer workgroups
- Replicate course structures between the LMS and the collaboration environment
