It is always a hard time, emotionally speaking, for both our volunteachers, when they go back home, and the students, when they are relocated to a different place. Are my students going to be properly looked after after my departure? The first part might think. Am I going to keep learning and attending some lessons in my new city? The second part could think, instead.
Nothing can be done to maintain the direct contact but nothing should stop us to carry on with the learning activities of our students. That is the reason why since the 26th of March 2016 HABIBI VIRTUAL SCHOOL came to life, in order to ensure that none of our students misses any single day of school.
Habibi Virtual School is Habibi Center’s online school. It basically makes possible a communication between teachers and students despite staying miles away from each other. From a student point of view, they are able to find improved lessons and some other interactive information available. In addition, this space is also helping improve their computer skills and confidence as, unlike being face to face with their teachers, they will have to make their own decisions until their teachers find a few minutes of their time to answer back. From the teachers’ side, this online space helps improve the quality of student’s evaluation and evolution.
Despite the use of this tool, Habibi Center still wants to give priority to the classic “learning by hand” way. Therefore, it has been stipulated that students have to download or preview online the required task to be done, then go through it and work it by hand with physical pen and paper and, once completed, upload that information back into the platform so that the teacher can check and evaluate.
Habibi Center is so happy to tackle another problem for our family by running this new Virtual School.
