SK Telecom has incorporated its in-house AI edtech solution "AI Picture Diary" into the "2026 Digital Saessak project," run in partnership with Soonchunhyang University, to address student literacy in the AI era. The company announced the move Monday. Digital Saessak is an AI and software education initiative promoted by the Ministry of Education and operated by the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity. Soonchunhyang University has been the project's lead institution for two consecutive years, with SK Telecom joining as a partner this year. The institutions have run programs for about 4,200 elementary, middle and high school students in Gangwon Province and the Chungcheong region since May. AI Picture Diary supports reading, writing and expressive activities for lower-grade elementary students and those receiving special education. When a student writes a diary entry, the tool's generative AI organizes it into four scenes, generating images and audio narration. Students can edit AI-produced titles, descriptions and dialogue or regenerate images, practicing sentence expression and narrative structuring. Teachers can monitor participation, track progress and review work via a dashboard. The partners will also provide a workbook covering digital and handwritten activities, and plan a second-semester special education curriculum titled "A World of Reading and Writing with AI."
