Le Thi Minh Thao, deputy director-general of Phenikaa Group, receiving the Sao Khue Award 2021 |
The Sao Khue Awards was first initiated by the Vietnam Software and IT Services Association in 2003 to honour the enterprises, agencies, individuals, and groups that have outstanding performances and make great contributions to the development of the Vietnamese software and IT industry. In 2021, PHX Smart School, created by Phenikaa Group’s member PHX Smart School Solutions JSC, beat a total of nearly 300 solutions and services coming from 161 companies at the awards.
PHX Smart School app is a smart administration platform that connects four subjects – student, parent, teacher, and manager – and collects information from various sources to make a smart, integrative administration system for student supervision. The solution is developed and commercialised by Phenikaa Group, using AI and IoT to record and transmit real-time data to the school board, teachers, and parents while guaranteeing the information can be shared in full transparency, accuracy, and punctuality between related subjects.
The solution also helps the school and teachers to hold online classes, share lecture videos, organise online examinations, allow students to take part in multiple-choice tests, and facilitate teachers to score the tests instantly and make announcements to parents and students about the results. The app is also a means of communication between the school, teachers, and parents, allowing the three sides to supervise the status of students when travelling back and forth between home and school with features such as smart positioning and face recognition. In addition, the app is able to measure the body heat of whoever is present in the school to help prevent an outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic. The app is available on Android and iOS.
At the same time, PHX Smart School is a comprehensive, smart solution for the school and parents supporting student supervision when traveling back and forth between home and school, issuing danger warning, as well as notifications for tuition payment, recruitment and admission, education and training, facility management, and other activities.
PHX Smart School has recently been purchased and deployed at some schools in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and the app has received good feedback from users. This app is considered a comprehensive solution to develop smart schools in Vietnam, hasten the digital transformation process at local schools amid Industry 4.0 and COVID-19, allow teaching and learning activities to continue in the “new normal”, and improve the quality of the education and training sector.
In the near future, with support from Phenikaa Group and its ecosystem that consists of research institutes and enterprises, PHX Smart School will continue pursuing full digitalisation in the education and training sector, and become the leading provider of smart solutions for both domestic and overseas educational institutions.
