E-homework is a set of learning materials for young children to learn their individual school subjects with the relevant topics independently. The subjects provided consist of Mathematics, Science, Chinese, Malay and English Language.
The learning materials include workbooks and individualised online learning account. The online learning account can allow children to access to lessons and tests. The attempts in the online account will be recorded for future references and revisions.
How can e-homework can assist children to learn better and in a more effective way compared to conventional ways of learning?
In our conventional way of learning, children learn from group teaching-school teachers or tuition teachers, or one-way teaching method by parents or personal guidance by some content experts.
For group teaching, the learning model is very teacher-centered and it has too many unnecessary elements that take up too much time. In one-on-one teaching method, it is more individualised but the time spent is limited. In both of these methods, children are not trained to learn independently in the long run.
In the advanced modern environment that we have today, technology has changed our way of living in almost every aspect. Children can learn from a systematically done "Teach-Ware" and the understanding of the topic can be further confirmed by a "Test-Ware". The Test-Ware has to be consistent enough to assure the results achieved are representative and it has to be valid to the topic or the area assessed.
