Info & Book Officially Launches Coding Education Platform 'Pion'
Official launch and rollout scope
Info & Book officially launched its intelligent coding learning platform, Pion, on May 29. The company is now rolling it out nationwide to schools, academies, and educational institutions. Info & Book was previously selected as an official operator for the Ministry of Science and ICT's ClickOn AI National AI Competition project.
Four-stage curriculum and CodeRun infrastructure
Pion offers a four-stage curriculum with a total of 374 questions, including 142 beginner Python problems, 106 intermediate Python problems, 67 data science problems, and 59 introductory AI coding problems. It also features the company’s self-developed CodeRun infrastructure, which allows users to run Python code in a web browser without installing separate software. The system operates in a container-based isolated execution environment.
AI real-time hints and learning support features
The platform provides AI real-time hints, AI explanations, a code-shooting game, and automatic issuance of learning certificates. It also includes AI explanations that verbally walk users through the logic behind correct answers, along with learning certificates issued upon completion of each stage.
Teacher dashboard for class management
It also offers a teacher-focused integrated management tool called the Class Management Dashboard. Teachers are automatically approved when they apply to open a class, and they can organize their classes using a unique invitation code. The dashboard visualizes each student's progress through the four-stage course, question-by-question accuracy rates, game score trends, and the date of the most recent learning activity in real time.
Institutional adoption program and support services
The company operates an institution-specific adoption program for elementary, middle, and high school information classes, after-school coding academies, local government lifelong learning centers, and corporate job training. It provides institution-specific codes, administrator accounts, customized curricula, and learning data reports. The package also includes linked learning materials based on Info & Book's published textbooks, Smart Python and Start Python.
Second-half upgrade plan
In the second half of the year, the company plans to roll out Pion 2.0, which will include AI-based customized question generation, a one-on-one coaching assistant for students, and automatic generation of integrated teacher reports. It also plans to launch a crowdfunding campaign. Inquiries about adoption can be made through the Pion Official Website.
