Lebanese University Teaches Skoolee Tools In Graduate Program

Feb. 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Graduate students in the ‘Technology in Higher Education’ course will be trained to fully use the software, a multilingual software and student information system (SIS) currently used by national and international schools in Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.  

Mazen El-Khatib, Dean of the Faculty of Pedagogy, remarks, "We want to introduce Skoolee Tools, a school management software, to our curriculum so that future school directors graduating from the Lebanese University will have better understanding and knowhow in applying leading technologies in their domain." Dr. El Khatib adds that: “Skoolee Tools was chosen for its clarity, breadth and practicality.”  

With Skoolee Tools, school administrators and staff can oversee and consolidate school activities and facilitate interaction among diverse school stakeholders, including school administrators, principals, teachers, students, and parents.

Basic academic tasks become more efficient with Skoolee Tools: scheduling of classes/courses, registration, monitoring student grades and performance, providing online assignments and exams, and more.

"Pedagogy is an integral part of our mission," says Ghassan Abboud, Managing Director of White Mountain Technologies, developer of Skoolee Tools.  “As students-turned-school directors become more exposed to technology, together we will be able to generate better ways of tailoring software, which can lead to more efficiency and outreach in running our educational institutions across the Middle East.”
