As schools are closed, parents have to rely on the virtual world to keep their kids educated or engaged. Due to this, Digi Telecommunications is now offering Malaysians access to fun and quality learning activities to keep families occupied during this Movement Control Order (MCO).
Parents can subscribe to MyDigi Subscriptions by EasyAdd, which offers various edutainment apps and services that are currently on special discounts and with free trials. Non-Digi users can also access this through www.easyadd.my.
Here are six edutainment app and services for your children:
1. JomStudi
To ensure that children are not left behind in their studies, try JomStudi, a digital learning hub developed to provide students with educational content that they can easily access anytime and anywhere. The educational content, which includes those from Astro Tutor TV and Media Prima’s FullAMark, complies with the syllabus prescribed by the Malaysian Ministry of Education (MOE) for Year 5, UPSR, PT3 and SPM and gamifies the study process by allowing students a chance to collect e-badges as rewards for completing their assignments.
Digi is now offering free 24/7 data access for all Digi customers for any JomStudi content browsed throughout the MCO.
2. Classruum
Classruum is a virtual classroom that enables students to learn from certified teachers and tailor their own lesson plan using study materials that comply with the MOE syllabus. Consisting of core subjects for UPSR, Form 1, PT3 and Form 5 levels, tutorials are broken into lesson plans, practice and summary to enable students to understand the subjects and practice at their own pace. Students have online access to video tutorials, study notes, assessments and even interactive games.
Digi customers can enjoy a limited RM1 offer to access certain Classruum subjects for one month via MyDigi Subscriptions.
