More than 500 students have benefited from a digital platform created by science teacher Hussein Jaafar Abdulaali at Awal Primary Intermediate Boys School, turning classroom learning into a more interactive and rewarding experience.

The platform supports science lessons through a points-based system that encourages students to participate in class, complete homework, maintain positive behaviour and take part in educational projects and initiatives.

Students earn points for their achievements and move through different levels, creating a friendly sense of competition. Those with the highest scores are recognised for their efforts.

Abdulaali said the idea was developed to boost students' motivation and make learning more enjoyable. Since its launch during the 2023-2024 academic year, the platform has helped increase engagement inside the classroom.

"The student collects points through classroom participation, positive behaviour, homework and educational initiatives," he said. "As they earn more points, they progress to higher levels, while top performers are celebrated."

The platform also includes an online store where students can redeem rewards, as well as a space to showcase their projects and initiatives, encouraging creativity and innovation.

Built using programming languages including PHP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript, the platform also incorporates artificial intelligence tools to help improve coding and enhance its features. Cybersecurity measures have been integrated to ensure a safe digital environment for users.
