New ICT-tactics for the future.
Getting rid of the routines.
We are teachers, educators, methodologists and parents. Just like you, we care about the quality of education of young people. Our students, pupils, our children, the young generation that will someday spread their wings and organize this world.
We want them to enter adulthood with skills that will make their lives and ours better. Skilled in communicating, proficient in using new technologies, thinking creatively and constructively, solving problems independently. With a relentless curiosity about the world and open minds. Aware of their talents and limitations. In favor of innovation, ready for change.
These needs were what brought Knowla to life.
Competences of the future are rushing h-e-r-e.
And the future of didactics is bright.
We recognize the importance of technological and social changes in the modern world, especially in the area of new forms of communication and information processing and their impact on educational models. As educators, methodologists, didacticians, we do not want and cannot remain indifferent to these phenomena. We feel that the traditional model of teaching, based on the memorization of knowledge, is not compatible with the needs of a modern information society.
We want to provide teachers with the best tools to be able to prepare young people to function in the new reality, to develop in them talents and skills for the 21st century. So that they can teach in an interesting, inspiring and engaging way, taking into account the different needs of children and their deficits. That they enrich their teaching practice with the latest trends in didactics, while implementing the requirements of the core curriculum.
Class scenarios get a new breath of life.
Learning should never be too boring.
That’s what we designed Knowla for, and with it new, inspiring forms of classes based on methods of active and independent student work and using multimedia, interactive teaching aids. The future in didactics has just arrived.
Fun claims it's ready for classes!
edutainment
With Knowla, learning takes the form of educational entertainment – according to research, the most effective method of conveying information and shaping social attitudes. Knowledge is embedded in an interesting, engaging form, which makes students’ minds more open, and they themselves do not even feel that they are learning. Playing is conducive to showing initiative and independence, finding ways to solve problems or learn how to interact with others well. It is a way to engage children in learning, to build a lively interaction between students and teachers, and to achieve a faster and more permanent mastery of the knowledge and skills transferred.
STREAM
Ideas for Knowla classes have their roots in the STREAM ( Science, Technologies, Robotics, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) methodology. Lessons take the form of workshops and projects, so that the acquisition of knowledge takes place in action – faster and more sustainable. They improve not only the ability to think logically and critically, but also stimulate creativity and imagination.
gamification
Knowla applies game mechanics to learning situations, making ordinary classroom activities an experience as exciting for students as playing games. As a result, it fosters action and challenges students. It increases their engagement and motivation to work, and improves concentration.
immersive learning
Knowla creates an educational environment close to the IL method. While performing scenario-planned activities and tasks, students are immersed in a digital reality created by multimedia. They learn by experiencing and doing, and the virtual world allows them to make mistakes without any risk and learn from them for the future.
multimedia
Through the use of multimedia, Knowla
engages multiple senses simultaneously, and by initiating learning through interaction and action, it increases the power to associate facts and phenomena. By interacting simultaneously with words, images and sound, it evokes emotions, arouses curiosity and involvement, and thus motivation to work.
Competences of the Future
We all agree that school should prepare our students for their future professions, and those professions, after all, may not even exist yet. Due to rapid social, cultural and technological changes, we cannot today accurately predict what specific skills will be required of our current students in the future. That’s why it’s worth developing the most universal ones that will enable them to function in adult life in the future and adapt to the changing reality. And it is precisely these competencies that Knowla is betting on.
