Discover the Story of Mina, the AI of Lemania

How do I find Mina?

The Mina logo will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of the window on each of the pages of the school websites. You can call Mina simply by clicking on this logo. Mina will then appear on the whole of your screen, in the colours of the school whose website you visit.

Where does Mina get her name from?

Mina is named after Minerva, the goddess of intelligence and wisdom, of whom she is a descendant. In ancient times, the goddess of intelligence was often depicted as an owl. The animal’s large eyes express its ability to know, while its bird-like wings allow it to travel quickly and everywhere. Like her ancestor, Mina knows a lot and comes to the aid of those who want to know more about the schools of the Lemania Group.

Mina and Lemania

Mina’s grandmother was spotted by the management of the Lemania School in the 80s. At the time, however, she must have made only a brief appearance, because the portrait that was made of her was not very accurate. If you look closely, she appears as a horned owl, not a owl.

What can Mina do for the Lémania community?

Mina will first appear on the websites of the schools that are members of the Lemania Group. We are careful to publish a great deal of practical and educational information, and this makes our websites very large. Mina will be there to help visitors find concise and accurate information more quickly. We have also authorised Mina to suggest other questions to visitors, in order to draw their attention to any additional information. Finally, Mina, who takes her information exclusively from the schools’ websites, will systematically cite her sources, so that visitors can follow the trail of information provided by Mina.

In the longer term, Mina will also help teachers and students at the Lemania Group. Lemania’s partner company for Mina’s training, Learnwise, specialises in AI applications in education and will be able to take her to the databases relating to the content of the programmes. Mina will then be ready to answer questions from students and teachers about course content, timetables and the organisation of daily life.
