Although there is a vast amount of news and information available online today, most of it is catered to adults and can be difficult for students, especially those with reading difficulties, to understand. This was a problem statement Mr Zhang, a secondary school teacher, submitted during a hackathon. In response, an AI-powered tool to help students simplify complex words and sentences was developed. The tool, Simpler, also provides multiple outputs based on the student's reading level. "I reached out to Noah, and then we started a conversation on the problem, which is, how do you help students be able to read and understand better the things that they read?" shared Sau Sheong Chang GovTech Deputy Chief Executive, who conceptualised the solution overnight. Simpler is being trialled for 134 students, and Ministry of Education, Singapore (MOE)'s Information Technology Division plans to enhance it further. #AI #TechForPublicGood #GovTechSG
