Research on Three-dimensional and Intelligent Textbook Development from the Perspective of Artificial Intelligence
Traditional printed textbooks have the characteristics of fixed content, single presentation, and unified compilation standards, which make it difficult to meet the needs of personalized, multi-scene, and interactive learning in the transformation of digital education. The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence, knowledge mapping technology and AR/VR immersion technology reshapes the overall development logic of teaching materials, and provides technical support for the construction of a three-dimensional intelligent textbook system that integrates printing entities, digital resources, interactive services and adaptive evaluation functions. Based on the TPACK teaching theory (technology, teaching methods and content knowledge), a three-tier development framework including three-dimensional construction of content, multi-form intelligent presentation and full cycle service empowerment is constructed. Combined with the cognitive load theory, this study proposes five Implementation Paths: AI-driven dynamic content generation, multimodal resource automatic production, adaptive content push based on learner portrait, embedded intelligent tutoring system, and closed-loop iterative optimization of textbook quality. Through the verification of the development case of junior high school physics intelligence three-dimensional textbook, the study found that: AI technology effectively broke through the boundary limit of traditional textbook compilation, and improved the timeliness of content and learning relevance; But at the same time, there are also some potential problems, such as the fact deviation of artificial intelligence generated content, excessive reliance on intelligent tools, and imperfect industry compilation standards.
