Zinox Computers, manufacturers of Nigeria’s first internationally certified branded computers, has introduced revision modules in its e-learning suite, enabled by the Zinox Card.
This is expected to bring relief to all stake holders in education and help Zinox consolidate its lead in the e-learning market.
The new e-learning tool provides students with over 80, 000 questions and answers suitable as revision materials in Senior School Certificates Examinations, NECO, GCE, JAMB, and other qualification examinations into tertiary institutions.
Mrs. Loretta Agbakoba, Head of the Zinox e-Learning, said that these practice modules are most likely to end the era of poor performance in examinations.
Agbakoba said that the Zinox Revision modules are designed to complement sound teaching and learning processes, restore the credibility of our schools and schools’ examinations, and substantially reduce the alarming proportions of examinations malpractices in Nigeria.
She said that these modules are perfect examination revision tools because they help students to master the content of their syllabus and at the same time make them proficient in the practical details of exams. Students can choose from eight academic subjects, moderates his/her answers with timing, check answers, and personally monitor performance.
According to her, the experience produces more confident students who would definitely score high grades in their examinations.
In 2009, Agbakoba recalled, that 60% of Nigerian students failed to meet the bare minimum standards for admission into tertiary institutions. From the remaining 40% who met the minimum cut-off marks most scored close to it, not really showing commendable academic brilliance.
She expressed the hope that the new e-learning tool from Zinox eLearning Technologies will aid millions of high school students to achieve the mastery needed to succeed in their future qualification examinations for tertiary institutions. Moreover, the revision modules are upgraded on a daily basis in keeping with the international standards of the World e-Books Library.
The Head Zinox e-Learning revealed that the inclusion of the revision modules has enhanced the indispensability of the Zinox Card as Nigeria’s foremost source for e-books and education resources. She called on parents, teachers, school administrators and governments to obtain the Zinox Card for their wards.
It would be recalled that in 2009 Zinox Computers launched its exclusive partnership with the World e-Books Library, WEL, a leading public on-line library with over a million titles and documents in stock.
The partnership is a strategic alliance to introduce a new technically cutting edge e-knowledge product in Nigeria.
