‫ثورة تعليمية ذكية: وزارة التربية والتعليم الإماراتية تتعاون مع هواوي

خطة مئوية الإمارات 2071

دبي، الإمارات العربية المتحدة، 19 أكتوبر 2021 /PRNewswire/ – أطلق صاحب السمو الشيخ محمد بن راشد آل مكتوم- نائب رئيس دولة الإمارات ورئيس مجلس الوزراء وحاكم دبي- لأول مرة خطة مئوية الإمارات 2071 مُجددًا في 2017، بهدفِ صريح يتمثل في جعل الإمارات واحدة من أفضل دول العالم، وذلك في وقت الاحتفال بالذكرى المئوية لتأسيسها في عام 2071. يعتبر الاستثمار في الأجيال القادمة في البلاد، وتزويدهم بالمهارات والمعرفة اللازمة لمواجهة واحتضان التغيير السريع، بمثابة ركيزة أساسية للخطة.

فيما يتعلق بوزارة التربية والتعليم، من أجل تحقيق مئوية الإمارات 2071- والأجندة الوطنية لرؤية الإمارات 2021 ، التي تؤكد على وضع نظام تعليمي من الدرجة الأولى- يعتبر الاستثمار في التكنولوجيا أمرًا حيويًا. وعلى هذا النحو، تم قبول ذلك باعتباره نهجًا وطنيًا مهمًا لدى الحكومة. وبناءً على ذلك، تم توجيه الموارد والقدرات الرئيسية نحو البنية التحتية التعليمية، وذلك بهدف تعزيز نموذج المدرسة الإماراتية- الذي بموجبه تشترك جميع المدارس الحكومية والخاصة التي تتبع أنظمة وزارة التربية والتعليم في المنهج الدراسي ذاته- وجعلها أكثر تنافسية على الساحة العالمية.

وفقًا لمّا ظهر جليًا خلال تفشي كوفيد-19، ينبغي أن تكون الأنظمة التعليمية الآن مناسبة لتحقيق الغرض منها، ولمواجهة التحديات الهائلة والاضطرابات التي قد تنشأ في التعلّم. في حقيقة الأمر، ومن أجل الاستجابة السريعة للجائحة- والاستمرار في دعم الرؤية الشاملة لدولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة، وفي سبيل تطوير نظام تعليمي مبتكر ومجتمع قائم على المعرفة وتنافسي عالميًا- تحولت وزارة التربية التعليم إلى حل شبكة لاسلكية بالكامل من هواوي، وذلك من أجل سرعة ربط الأشخاص والبيئات، وضمان استمرارية التعلم فضلاً عن تحقيق المزيد من الخدمات المبسطة والقوية القائمة على المعلومات والاتصالات. ومع إطلاق “الحرم المدرسي التابع لوزارة التربية والتعليم” و”مشروع ابتكار واي-فاي- الذي يغطي أكثر من 400 مدرسة- فإن ثورة التعليم الذكي قيد التنفيذ.

تحقيق اتصال سلس باستخدام حل هواوي

كان الهدف الرئيسي للحرم المدرسي التابع لوزارة التربية والتعليم ومشروع ابتكار واي-فاي هو تحقيق اتصال سلس في أكثر من 400 مدرسة، وذلك من خلال ترقية شبكات الواي-فاي الحالية لتوفير سرعات أعلى وموثوقية أشد. تضع هذه الشبكة الطموحة أساسًا ثابتًا للتحوّل الرقمي لنظام التعليم، مما يؤدي بدوره إلى تقديم تجربة تعليمية عالية الجودة تسمح للمعلمين بدمج التكنولوجيا الجديدة- مثل الذكاء الاصطناعي (AI) والواقع المعزز (AR) وغير ذلك- في دروسهم.

يتميز حل الشبكة من هواوي أيضًا بالتعرف على البرامج، مما يساعد على التحكم في المواقع الإلكترونية التي يزورها الطلاب والأدوات البرمجية التي يستخدمونها. نظرًا لوجود عددٍ كبيرٍ من المدارس المشاركة وكذلك عددٍ كبيرٍ حتمي للأجهزة المتصلة بالشبكة، كان النشر المبسط أيضًا أحد محاور التركيز الرئيسية، بالإضافة إلى تحسين كفاءة التشغيل والصيانة وتقليل التكاليف المتعلقة بهما.

تضمن نهج هواوي المخصص للمشروع النشر المُنسق للعديد من الحلول، وذلك بهدف إنشاء نظام شبكة محلية لاسلكية (WLAN) مركزية قوية وموثوقة، وتكون في وضعٍ جيد لتلبية الطلب المتزايد في المستقبل. في الواقع، من خلال نشر المحولات ونقاط الوصول التي تمت ترقيتها، فإن قابلية التوسع مدمجة بالفعل: حيث تدعم وحدات التحكم في الوصول شديد الكثافة ما يصل إلى 20,000 نقطة وصول و200,000 طالب. تمثل المبادرة أحد أكبر المشروعات الاستثمارية في قطاع التعليم في دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة منذ عام 2019.

كيف تضيف هواوي القيمة

إلى جانب تعزيز الاتصال، يسمح حل هواوي الآن لوزارة التربية والتعليم بإدارة جميع المدارس البالغ عددها 400 -أو يزيد- من منصة واحدة، مما يدعم شبكة تكون التجربة محورها حقًا. إضافة إلى ما سبق، تستفيد كل مدرسة داخل الشبكة من الأداء اللاسلكي المُحّسن بشكلٍ ملحوظ ، وذلك مع قدرة التحويل العالية، وزمن الانتقال المنخفض للغاية، وعدم فقدان الحزمة أثناء التجوال. ومع قابلية التوسع المبسطة، تُعد الترقية إلى تقنية “واي-فاي” من الجيل التالي مدعومة بالفعل.

ساعد تنفيذ المشروع في تحقيق تجربة إتاحة “واي-فاي” في أي وقت وفي أي مكان عبر الحرم الجامعي والمدرسي، بداية من الفصول الدراسية والمكتبات وحتى المختبرات وصالات الألعاب الرياضية وغير ذلك. ستساعد هذه الخطوة نحو ثورة تعليمية ذكية المدارس على استكشاف طرق تدريس متقدمة ومتطورة حيث تضم: حقائب مدرسية إلكترونية، وسبورات ذكية، وفصول دراسية افتراضية، وتدريس من خلال التفاعل عبر الإنترنت، وغير ذلك.

ذكر إيهاب عيد، رئيس البنية التحتية لتكنولوجيا المعلومات بوزارة التربية والتعليم: “لقد كان التحسن في تجربة الشبكة واضحًا تمامًا”. وأضاف قائلاً “من خلال نشر نقاط الوصول وحلول الشبكة من هواوي، عملنا على تحسين جودة الدروس. ويُمكن للمعلمين حاليًا التفاعل مع الطلاب عبر الإنترنت- دون النظر إلى مكان وجودهم الفعلي- عبر فيديو عالي الدقة، من دون التأثر بسبب انقطاع الاتصال بالشبكة أو فقدان الحزمة. لقد أدى هذا بالتأكيد إلى تسريع وتيرة ثورة التعليم الذكي والسماح لنا باستكشاف طرق تدريس أكثر إبداعًا. أعتقد أنه ستُتاح لدينا المزيد من الفرص للعمل مع هواوي، بينما نواصل متابعة التحوّل الرقمي في المستقبل.”

Huawei Peng Song: C.A.F Model Is Key to Building Network Competitiveness and Driving Growth

DUBAI, UAE, Oct. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The 7th Ultra-Broadband Forum (UBBF 2021) opened today in Dubai. At the event, Peng Song, President of Global Carrier Marketing & Solution Sales at Huawei, delivered a keynote speech titled “Extend Connectivity, Drive Growth”. He defined and elaborated Huawei’s C.A.F (Coverage Architecture Fusion) model. Peng highlighted that “There are huge opportunities for connectivity. It is key for operators to build network competitiveness based on the CAF model.”

Peng Song delivering the keynote speech

The past year has been full of both challenges and opportunities. The demands for connectivity are undergoing tremendous changes for both homes and enterprises. Homes have become centers for education, work, and trade. Enterprises no longer just focus on bandwidth for connectivity. Enterprise connectivity has changed from a communication technology (CT) to an operational technology (OT). Extendingconnectivity and converging with cloud becomes the main subjects related to connectivity. Today, countries around the world are accelerating digitalization, and the value of connectivity has been redefined. How can operators help accelerate the digitalization of industries, maximize the value of connectivity, and achieve new growth?

According to Peng, the C.A.F model is the key — “C” stands for coverage, “F” for fusion, and “A” for architecture.

Coverage: Explores that presently how we can extend connectivity to homes and enterprises to meet new demands and achieve business value. The demands for connectivity are changing in both homes and enterprises. Once broader coverage becomes available, operators need to extend connectivity to every room, every device, and every production system in enterprises. This will grow the number of connections, increase user stickiness, and ultimately create more business opportunities.

In home scenarios, Peng suggested two ways to extend connectivity to homes. One is to use Huawei’s full-service fiber grid planning and industry-leading AirPON and Digital Quick ODN solutions to accelerate fiber coverage and extend fiber to homes. The other is from FTTH (Fiber to the Home) to FTTR (Fiber to the Room), further extending fiber to rooms for home networking. This will bring experience beyond our imagination. While increasing user stickiness, more importantly it provides a foothold in the digital home, making it possible to develop smart services.

In enterprise scenarios, Peng emphasized that leased lines need to provide differentiated offerings to stay competitive. More importantly, connectivity needs to be extended inside enterprises from CT to OT. In this way, many problems faced by enterprises can be solved like the remote PLC control in Iron & Steel companies. This will result in enhanced production efficiency and user experience.

Fusion: Explores that in the future how connectivity can converge with cloud and enable digitalization. Digitalization is the biggest opportunity for the ICT industry. It is no longer a concept, but a reality. Undoubtedly, cloud is at the core of digitalization, but connectivity also plays a key role. According to Peng, “Fusion” is important, because connectivity needs to be cloud-centric and help enterprises migrate to cloud. Connectivity and cloud need to be converged. Operators can play a big role in this process.

In his speech, Peng mentioned two phases about fusion. In the first phase, connectivity needs to be cloud-centric. Three key words are involved in this phase: “quick” refers to deploying the intelligent cloud terminal on the enterprise side to achieve fast cloud access; “multi-cloud interconnection” involves enabling SRv6 in the backbone networks to implement multi-cloud access through a single connection; “deterministic” means providing network slicing capabilities to stay deterministic.

In the second phase, connectivity should converge with cloud, and build an ecosystem. This is the most challenging part, but also the most valuable part. It requires atomization and openness of the network capabilities to implement network selecting cloud, and cloud scheduling network.

Architecture: Explores the characteristics of network architecture required to achieve present and future business success. Peng emphasized that to facilitate network evolution, the spine-leaf mode is required to make the network architecture more flexible. And technologies such as PON and OXC are required to make network services greener. Autonomous Driving Network need to be introduced to optimize the OPEX in terms of O&M. Huawei’s continuous efforts in exploring new technologies — such as OXC, SRv6, and ADN — have strengthened the foundation of the architecture.

Peng ended his keynote speech by quoting this Arabic proverb: “Actions are fruits, while words are but leaves. Despite the harsh environment we are facing, Huawei is continuing to focus on innovation in connectivity technologies. We will continue to play our part and support our customers to achieve business success both now and in the future.”
