Junyi Academy

What Junyi Academy is

Junyi Academy (均一教育平台) is a free online learning platform for students from primary school through senior high school in Taiwan, with class tools for their teachers and parents. It runs as a non-profit. The homepage tags it 非營利組織 (non-profit organization) and asks visitors to donate so that children keep free, quality learning resources, and the site policy says the platform is maintained jointly by the Chengzhi Education Foundation (誠致教育基金會) and the Junyi Platform Education Foundation (均一平台教育基金會). A note in the site footer says Junyi Academy is derived originally from Khan Academy and from the Chengzhi Foundation.

The homepage headline sets the current direction: "讓每位學習者，都擁有免費的 AI 學習家教" (every learner should have a free AI learning tutor). The text beneath it argues that technology should not deepen learning gaps, and says Junyi combines AI to give every child, from remote rural areas to cities, free, high-quality and personalized learning resources. The same page calls Junyi "全台最多中小學生使用的線上學習平台", the online learning platform used by the most primary and secondary school students in Taiwan.

What a student gets

The core is a library of videos, practice problems and handouts covering primary school to high school, built against the literacy-oriented 108 curriculum (108 課綱) and spanning both school subjects and wider literacy topics. The homepage says the material is made by Junyi together with many partner organizations, and counts 41,000+ videos and 108,000+ practice problems. Students watch videos, work through exercises and join online learning activities "依照自己的步調前進" (moving forward at their own pace).

Much of the younger material is animated. The homepage describes "活潑可愛的狐狸貓" (the lively, cute Fox Cat mascot) and animated storylines drawn from everyday life, meant to help children grasp complex concepts. Three literacy series sit beside the school subjects. Financial literacy (理財素養) uses real-life scenarios to teach money management and introduce payment and investment tools. My Semiconductor Adventure (我的半導體大冒險) covers semiconductor knowledge the textbooks leave out, launched with a partner the homepage calls 護國神山, literally the sacred mountain that protects the nation. Sustainable Food Era Literacy (永續食代新素養) is about eating well while being kinder to the planet.

For older students the material turns toward exams. A high school math review collection runs from chapter practice through periodic exams to the 學測 college entrance exam. The 10th grade math page shows how that is built: periodic exam test papers that recommend videos for the questions a student got wrong, past 學測 questions sorted by chapter (data analysis, permutations and probability, trigonometric ratios), and chapter review sets at basic, general and advanced levels. The page credits the Mathematics Subject Center (數學學科中心) and two teachers at the girls' senior high school 臺北市立第一女子高級中學 for helping build it.

Teacher-made courses appear too. In Math Energy Toast (國中數學基礎能量吐司), junior high teacher 劉繼文 of 新泰國中 splits integers, fractions and linear equations in one variable into 314 micro-concepts, each with its own short explainer video, for grade 7 and up, with printable handouts to download. A junior high science series pairs video with paper worksheets and online answering.

Practice is wrapped in game mechanics. Students collect badges, draw new profile avatars, level up day by day by earning energy points, and build skill and badge achievements alongside the Fox Cat. The homepage pitches classmates spurring each other on to see who gathers the most energy points and mastery, and each student's videos, exercises and activities are kept as a personal record of progress. A student quoted there, 李同學 of 基隆建德中學, says "均一幫助我學習" (Junyi helps me learn) and that they now recommend it to classmates. The video player was recently upgraded with an AI notebook, and the footer links Jutor AI 英語家教, an AI English tutor that the site policy lists among the foundation's services alongside ShareClass.

Tools for teachers and parents

Teachers use the same platform to run classes. Class settings (班級設定) create and manage a class; assign tasks (指派任務) turns Junyi videos, exercises and handouts into homework and quizzes; a wrong-answer collection (錯題集) and analysis reports (分析報告) handle review and scoring in one step. The homepage frames this as support for differentiated instruction: the teaching management system scores the work and shows each child's answer process, so a teacher can adjust quickly. One teacher quoted on the homepage, 記萱老師 of 濱江國中, says "我可以很快察覺哪些同學需要幫助、需要什麼幫助" (I can quickly see which students need help and what help they need).

Parents get a version of the same tools. They can pick videos, exercises or handouts for their child and turn them into learning tasks, then use class data (班級數據) and a focus chart (專注圖) to see how the child is really doing and step in with help.

Training is part of the offer. The homepage says a teacher-training team and senior lecturers help teachers build their skill at bringing digital tools into class. Teachers can apply for a workshop through a form, after which Junyi matches a lecturer to visit the school, and there is a Facebook page and a teacher community. The teacher resource zone holds a beginner's guide (logging in, the learning homepage), a teacher section on advanced class management with sample lessons, a student and parent section with a parent handbook, and 差異化教學柑仔店, a differentiated-teaching collection that argues for moving the teacher from lecturer to learning facilitator to learning coach. It also hosts material from the Ministry of Education's digital learning workshops for primary and junior high schools, where Junyi classroom practice serves as training content.

The same zone documents a high school math OMO remedial program. Teachers from 北一女中 wrote and reviewed math problems, Zhonglun High School (中崙高中) used them as the core of its remedial classes, and each printed problem carries a QR code that opens the matching video on a tablet. For academic year 115, a back-to-school resource pack offers free downloadable handouts from primary school to high school in math, science and English, ready to print and teach from.

Price, license and scale

The homepage states "全站完全免費使用" (the whole site is completely free to use), and under each sign-up option adds that whichever role you register as, teacher, student or parent, every feature is permanently free (永久免費). The foundation funds the platform through donations, including monthly recurring giving, and lists corporate partnerships; the homepage prints its charitable fundraising permit number. The site policy states one limit: because of computing costs, some generative AI services cap each account's use within a set period and pause until the next cycle once the cap is reached.

Course materials (teaching videos, interactive exercises, assessments and handouts) are licensed to users under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 TW unless marked otherwise, according to the licensing page, so they can be reused for non-commercial purposes with attribution and under the same license. The site policy says users under 18 should use the site with a parent or guardian, that Junyi does not sell, rent or trade personal data, and that users can ask by email to have their data deleted or de-identified. It also warns that AI-generated output is not guaranteed accurate and asks users not to type personally identifiable information into AI fields.

The homepage backs its reach with figures from the pandemic and after. In May 2021, on the day the Ministry of Education announced nationwide class suspensions, Junyi linked up three major non-government online learning platforms to pool resources and sped up its 108 curriculum content. It ran nearly 20 live online workshops and Q&A sessions for teachers, with 104,592 views to date; on its busiest day it carried more than 500,000 teachers and students at once with no downtime; 7 summer workshops reached 12,500 teacher participants and over 70,000 views. The same list credits Junyi with adding 16,000+ videos and 15,000+ exercises, helping 12,500+ teachers start teaching with the platform, supporting 14,500+ children in learning-support programs and 1,900+ of their teachers, and serving more than 3.8 million users for free. Partnerships named there include an integrated online course with 北一女中 and a localized version of Google's CS First course.

Who it suits

Junyi Academy fits Taiwanese families and schools first. A primary or junior high student who needs free, self-paced practice that matches the 108 curriculum gets videos, exercises and handouts in one place, with game mechanics to keep younger children going. A senior high student preparing for periodic exams or the 學測 finds chapter-sorted practice with video help on wrong answers. Teachers get free class management, assignment and scoring tools, plus training and printable material for blended lessons, and parents can set tasks and follow progress without paying anything.

The caveats come from the same focus. The site is in Chinese and built around Taiwan's curriculum and exams, so it suits learners outside that system less well. The content license is non-commercial, which matters to a tutoring business hoping to reuse the material. And the student side runs on self-paced videos and exercises (the live sessions on the pages are workshops for teachers), with some generative AI services capped per account.
