TechCable reports that Wizitup uses digital tools for self-learning and classroom teaching among other things. Currently available to primary schools the platform comes with a Wizpad, a ready-to-learn tablet supplied by Vericore Technologies. The tablet is preloaded with contents for Primary and Secondary Schools.
Content for the tablet is developed with the Nigerian, British and American curricula, so students can relate to those taught in classrooms by their teachers and cover their examination syllabi easily. There are parent control features that allow parents to monitor children’s internet use.
The Wizitup In-Classroom Solution is a teacher’s resources and teaching aid software. Available resources include simulations, illustrations, e-books and lesson plans that teachers can employ as teaching tools. In-classroom enriches teacher’s presentation with the use of versatile illustrations, animations, simulation and well written textbooks options. The built-in contents are grouped within the application according to subjects and topics.
Their School Information and Administrative System (SIAS) combines learning management and school management systems. It consists of Administrative, Academic, Learning Management System (LMS), Forum and Messaging platforms. The software also provides a communication platform interconnecting students, teachers, and parents. It can be set up online or locally within the school environment and users can access the platform without the internet in the school environment. It simplifies school management and administration.
According to the TechCable report it took two years to design the platform and the development was based on extensive research of teaching and learning patterns of teachers and students respectively.
