How NFC Crayon Lab works

AI drafts, you decide

AI turns your plain-language request into filters you can edit, explains why each resource fits, suggests adaptations for your class and pre-fills labels when you share a file.

• Every AI suggestion is a draft. You accept, edit or reject each change, and nothing is final until you decide.
• Each adaptation shows its basis (why) and its source line (what it changes), and AI text is marked as AI text.
• If nothing suitable exists, the hub says so instead of inventing a match, and logs the gap for curriculum teams.

Review before sharing

Anything shared across centres goes through a reviewer first. Automated pre-checks flag missing labels, safety rules (small parts, allergens, plants), possible duplicates and personal data. Official curriculum materials are locked: only curriculum admins can update or withdraw them, and withdrawn items never appear in search.

Privacy and child data

• No child profiles and no identifiable child information are needed.
• Names typed into text are replaced with tokens before every AI call; photos are checked for faces and name tags and must be blurred or removed before sharing.
• Access is checked by the server for every role. In this demo the AI calls go to the Anthropic, Mistral and Deepgram APIs with fictional data only; the pilot runs on Claude in Amazon Bedrock in Singapore.

Credit and resource history

Every resource shows its source centre, its author and co-authors, and the reviewer. Adaptations link back to the original, and credit follows every derivative. Updates to a resource are kept separate from local adaptations, with a simple history of important changes.

Demo AI credit

Because evaluators share one demo password, each demo user has a daily AI allowance (shown as AI % in the header). It refills at midnight Singapore time. When it runs out, AI buttons pause; prepared drafts, review, upkeep and the dashboard keep working. You are asked to accept a short notice before the first AI action.

Accessibility

• Works on phones, tablets and desktops, and can be installed as an app (PWA).
• Touch targets are at least 44 px, colour contrast follows WCAG AA, and every control can be used with a keyboard.
• Light and dark modes follow your device, or switch them in the footer.
