Edutech Implements SmartClass Multimedia System for Abu Dhabi Educational Zone


System helps integrate the instructor-led classroom based training model with latest computer and communications technologies

Edutech Middle East, a leading provider of technology-enabled learning solutions, has teamed up with Abu Dhabi Educational Zone (ADEZ), the administrative and management arm of the UAE Ministry of Education, to implement the SmartClass Multimedia System at government schools to enhance teaching quality and learning effectiveness especially in a multimedia classroom setting. The initiative aims to boost the ADEZ by integrating the familiar instructor-led classroom based training model with latest computer and communications technologies.

Edutech's sophisticated Robotel SmartClass Multimedia System solution provides teachers and instructors access to interactive tools to present the curriculum, share information, monitor student comprehension and meet educational challenges.

"The goal of our programme is to build a generation of IT literate children, enhancing their educational experience with creative learning tools and equipping them with the skills they need to succeed in future careers. ADEZ's vision is to provide the best, internationally recognized education system, equipping all students with the knowledge, understanding, skills and values to ensure their success in meeting individual and national development goals for the UAE. Our association with Edutech has been a long and fruitful one and we look forward to this partnership as we bring in more and more schools under the wings of technology," Mohamed Said Al Maskari, Deputy Manager for Administrative & Financial Affairs, Abu Dhabi Educational Zone.

"The SmartClass Multimedia System helps establish an easy yet effective control and communications system for teachers in the computer lab and ensures that teachers have uninterrupted quality time with students while dealing with learning concepts. This solution will enrich teaching methods with modern technology and introduce the children to a wealth of information and interactive learning techniques to improve the overall education experience," said ASF Karim, Managing Director of Edutech.

Edutech's solutions are also known for their proven techniques of visual learning that strengthen critical thinking and comprehension of students. The cutting-edge innovation of Edutech's solutions can be gauged from the educational computing capabilities of some of its products which allow students from the same room or from anywhere in the world to share their knowledge and expertise as they build projects on the internet.

Edutech recently implemented technology enabled learning solutions at 90 schools in the Sultanate of Oman, taking the tally of schools using these solutions to over 590 in Oman. In the last five years, Edutech has implemented various solutions in Oman's schools that help students experience real-life art media while working on projects, backgrounds and animation. The internet-based functions, enhanced sound, drag-and-drop development and the integrated media library browser make Edutech's solutions easy to use even for beginners.

The company has also implemented SmartClass Multimedia System in the region's leading institutions such as H. H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid IT Project - Abu Dhabi & Dubai; Technical Studies Institute, Abu Dhabi; University of Sharjah; Abu Dhabi Police, Abu Dhabi; Institute of Public Administration, Riyadh; Saudi Aramco schools, Dammam and Royal Air Force of Oman. Edutech also provides its customers a comprehensive range of services in the areas of education, training and information in partnership with the world's leading technology publishers and solution providers.

"Having been in the education industry for over 15 years, we can successfully leverage our knowledge and understanding to provide leading edge solutions to our customers and help them turn their vision into reality.
