On-Demand Tutoring
February 10, 2014We are very pleased to announce the launch of SABIS® On-Demand Tutoring (ODT), for all SABIS® students in levels C-M network-wide
The On-Demand Tutoring is a service allowing students to self-study concepts and academic materials by viewing pre-recorded videos, complementing the learning taking place in the classroom. Most videos have been prepared by students from SABIS® schools around the world through the SABIS Student Life Organization®, and have been approved by SABIS® Educational Services before being posted online.
SABIS® On-Demand Tutoring, videos are available in mathematics for levels C-M, in science for levels J and K (only for courses using the SABIS® science books), levels L-M for Physics, Chemistry and Biology and for English Levels F-K. Students of these levels can access the videos by logging into SABIS® WebSchool and then navigating to the On-Demand Tutoring icon.
The ODT Program allows students to ask questions after viewing a video. All questions will be automatically routed to the student's school and viewed by the SLO® Prefects who in turn will assign a tutor to the student to ensure all his/her questions are answered.
Walk of Glory
ISC - Choueifat
May 09, 2014
At the International School of Choueifat, Choueifat, the student body was not about to let their grade 12 students graduate in peace. They had to go out in a bang.
The Sunshine prefects prepared a surprise event for these 12th graders. At 3:30 pm on Friday May 9th, the prefects gathered the whole school, including students, teachers and staff, as well as administrators around the area where the 12th graders would have to pass by. The stairs and the surrounding area was decorated with balloons and looked beautiful.
When the 12th graders showed up, there were blindsided by well wishers, cheering them on, singing for them, applauding their efforts and encouraging them forward. Many prefects held posters with nice messages on them and proudly held them above their heads.
Health Awareness Campaign - Body & Mind
ISC - Choueifat
April 10, 2014In an effort to promote healthy choices and educate students on healthy living, the Student Life Organization organized an inspirational 2 weeks “Health Awareness-Body and Mind” campaign for all the students without exception, from Pre-k up to grade 12.
Presentations and dynamic activities were used to cover a wide variety of health issues such as hygiene, nutrition, mental health, sleeping disorders, smoking, drug abuse, stress management, alcohol and energy drinks addiction, racism and peace, driving safety, dental hygiene, acting right in accidents, first aid guidelines, etc... and were greatly enjoyed by the students.
The highlight of this campaign was an Open Day of Awareness, in which professionals in the health field and doctors (some of them SABIS® graduates) were invited to share best practices, talk about various topics and answer questions as well as shed light on the side-effects of living an unhealthy lifestyle.
As a handy and beneficial reference, flyers were distributed and discussed.
‘This campaign made a huge difference to my daily routine, and motivated me to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and have been eating healthy since then.’
