It is crucial to understand why we introduce high technology such as artificial intelligence to assist in teaching in rural or remote areas. That's because of the unbalanced distribution of educational resources between urban and rural areas. Basically, the schools in big cities can offer higher salary and bonus to teachers compared to those in rural areas. Thus, good teachers normally tend to choose to work at big cities where they can get better life quality rather than remote villages. Lack of good teachers means that the kids at rural areas have little access to quality education, which leads to a big gap between the kids in villages and in cities. One of the biggest gap between them is the foreign language level. Thanks to the rapid progress of technology, some new ways of teaching such as remote education based on 5G network emerged, which enable the kids in small villages to get access to the classes taught by good teachers from some city schools. That is particularly beneficial for language learning. As we all know, it is vital to have an environment that you can speak one language very often when you would like to learn it. The virtual classes on the platform of remote education just provide such an environment where you can talk to language teachers or even native speakers. It is cheap and convenient especially for kids living in remotely rural areas. All in all, I must say the technology leap really promotes the language education in rural and remote areas by winding down the gap between cities and villages.
