Wide Range of Resources helps Teachers at Canossa Convent Primary School

Tapping on the wide range of resources that KooBits offers, teachers of Canossa Convent Primary School are now able to present more interesting and interactive lessons. In the past, teachers had to trawl through the internet to gather relevant resources. However, with KooBits, it offers an extensive range of resources that covers many categories. These categories include people, background and nature that can be used in many subjects.

Not only do teachers benefit from the wide range of resources available, students also felt that they came in handy when they were doing their projects. On top of that, KooBits’s ability to act as a multimedia platform helped students to fully express their creativity. They were no longer confined to including resources from a single source. Among the multimedia tools they could use was voice recording. Students could pre-record their stories and match it against their e-book. This promotes cooperation among students which is one of the goals of the InfoCommunication and technology (ICT) department in Canossa Convent Primary School.

The convent school, located in Salim Road hopes to integrate KooBits into more of the subjects taught. Besides helping teachers in textbook based subjects like Mathematics, science and Mother Tongue, the school also hopes to diversify the use of this e-book technology in other subjects. This includes music and arts and craft. Using this software, students will be able to fully express their creativity with the huge number of possibilities.

For now, teachers of Canossa Convent are pleased with how user friendly this e-book software is.
