iRainbow doesn’t replace teachers but enhances the learning experience they offer, providing a comprehensive, adaptive, and engaging tool that promotes your child’s academic success.

A iRainbow is designed to be flexible and adaptive to individual learner’s needs and pace. Instead of loading work per term period, the content is structured by topic. Each topic is further divided into subtopics to allow for more detailed learning and understanding. All the content for the entire academic year is loaded onto the platform and is available at all times. This gives the learners full access to all topics throughout the year, giving them the freedom to explore, revisit, and master the subjects at their own pace. This allows learners to progress at their own pace, repeating areas where they are struggling and moving ahead in areas where they excel. It enables a more personalized learning experience which can lead to better understanding and retention of information. Teachers or parents can guide learners on how to use the platform in line with the school curriculum timeline, to ensure that the learner keeps pace with their school program.

ACertainly! With iRainbow, teachers have multiple options for incorporating the software into classroom instruction and assessment. Here’s how a teacher could use iRainbow in class and assign assessments for students to complete at home:

Explaining the Work in Class: The teacher can use iRainbow as a teaching tool during class time. They can project the software on a screen or whiteboard and guide students through the lessons, interactive activities, and examples. The teacher can provide explanations, facilitate discussions, and address any questions or difficulties students may have.

Sample Assessment in Class: After teaching a specific topic or concept, the teacher can assign a sample assessment using iRainbow. This assessment can be completed by students individually or in groups. The teacher can monitor their progress, provide feedback, and identify areas that require further reinforcement. This allows the teacher to assess student understanding and adjust their teaching accordingly.

Watching Videos and Completing Assessments at Home: Teachers can assign videos within iRainbow for students to watch at home as part of their independent learning. These videos provide additional explanations, examples, and demonstrations of concepts. The teacher can then assign assessments related to the video content for students to complete at home. Students can access iRainbow on their own devices or computers to complete the assigned assessments. The teacher can review the completed assessments, provide feedback, and address any misconceptions or difficulties during class time.

By combining in-class instruction, sample assessments, and at-home learning, teachers can create a blended learning environment using iRainbow. This approach allows for both teacher-led instruction and independent student engagement, promoting a deeper understanding of the subject matter and supporting differentiated learning experiences.
