F.A.Q ABOUT FACILITIES
Our platform is designed to support comprehensive educational activities with these core functions:
- Interactive Simulation: Engage students through dynamic, hands-on learning experiences.
- Assessment Administration: Simplify and manage diverse assessment processes.
The interactive simulations are built on the following foundational principles:
- Scientific Inquiry-Based Instruction: Encouraging active exploration and experimentation to deepen understanding.
- Constructivist Theory: Facilitating knowledge construction through interactive and learner-centered activities.
The platform supports a variety of assessment types to cater to different educational needs:
- Classroom-Based Assessments and Self-Assessments: Diagnostic tools aligned with formative assessment practices to enhance teaching and learning.
- Summative Assessments and Large-Scale Assessments: Digital administration tools that enable educators to evaluate students systematically for specific educational objectives.
The platform is designed to cater to multiple stakeholders in education:
- Teachers/Educators: Utilize the platform for teaching, assessments, and diagnostics to monitor and support students' learning.
- Students: Engage in self-assessment, concept learning, and science inquiry practices.
- Researchers: Create tests, develop questionnaires, and collect data for academic research purposes.
Only registered and validated teachers, educators, and researchers have the ability to create and share learning and assessment materials on the platform. This ensures content quality and alignment with educational standards.
