Kitab Al Arabiyya: A Standard Based Curriculum for Elementary

Kitab AL Arabiyya is a new series for teaching Arabic in the Elementary published by Dar Al Nahla. Kitab AL Arabiyya approaches teaching Arabic based on standards and benchmarks. Where other Arabic language textbooks focus on communication, Kitab AL Arabiyya focuses on culture as well. The book offers an opportunity to connect to other subjects through Arabic and encourages the use of standard Arabic outside the classroom. This presentation will offer a detailed explanation of Kitab Al Arabiyya, its philosophy, content, supplements and how to best use it.

The Many Roads to Literacy and Basic Education

This presentation covers the variety of programmes we are involved with in different parts of the world with regards to literacy and basic skills. For example: family literacy, media literacy, adult literacy, learning through distance education, or sports as a motivator for education. It will also be shown how the same approaches may work successfully in very different countries. Furthermore, we take a look at how some of these approaches for basic skills could also be successful in other fields of education.

How to Bring Collaborative Learning to the Classroom Using Teaching Tools Created by YOU

Introducing for the first time EVER! A superb solution for collaborative and interactive learning from YOKNOWLEDGE.COM.

YOKNOWELDGE.COM has created an exciting and powerful new software that allows teachers to create superb teaching tools like WORKSHEETS, SNAP CARDS (QUESTION LOOPS), and FLASH CARDS in an instant! Teachers can create personalized banks of Q&A (in multiple choice) on any subject. This software takes away teacher burden completely, and brings fun to the classroom. Teachers can easily share their Q&A banks with fellow-teachers and students via e-mail, power point, flash, html, mp3, and even as database files! The software is an invaluable tool to bring interactive practice and test sessions in a classroom as well. YOKNOWLEDGE also offers a brilliant software for students to self-test for a lifetime! This software is an aggregator of Q&A (a student’s personal ‘electronic Q&A book’), where thousands of Q&A can be ‘collected’ on a variety of subjects, and be used for practice and self-testing.

Research shows that self-testing helps retain information better. Consequently, this would lead to better scores.
