Digii and AWS Unveil DigiiAI, a GenAI Tool for Academia
Digii and AWS India Private Limited have announced the introduction of DigiiAI- a digital solution which aims to transform the campus experience in education institutions by providing smarter, more efficient, and personalised solutions for students, teaching faculty, and administration. In its initial phase, DigiiAI, built on Amazon Bedrock, will leverage generative AI to streamline administrative tasks, enhance classroom management, and provide personalised support for faculty members. As part of the first cohort, Digii will offer DigiiAI to more than 1000 faculty members across 20 educational institutions in India, including leading institutions like Manipal Academy of BFSI, Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) Bangalore, Chanakya University, The Apollo University, and Techno India University, among others. DigiiAI addresses common challenges faced by faculty and students in educational institutions. For example, teaching faculty spend a lot of time on several administrative tasks such as taking attendance, preparing class schedules, documentation of course files and students’ performance, assessment creation and evaluation, among others. The first use case that DigiiAI will prioritise for faculty members is the auto-creation of assessments. According to the company, DigiiAI will completely streamline the assessment creation process with just a few clicks, adding great ease to the faculty’s teaching experience. Moreover, DigiiAI will prioritise the auto-creation of assessments for faculty in alignment with the outcome-based education framework. Faculty can select Bloom’s taxonomy[2] levels that will create questions best suited to desired learning outcomes, with diverse question formats readily available such as fill-in-the-blanks and multiple-choice questions, among others. Digii plans to further expand the use of AI to enhance the quality of education and student success by exploring its benefits in use cases such as the auto-evaluation of answers to subjective questions, as well as offering adaptive assessments to learners for self-practice.
