As we all know, Pandai Education is an interactive educational app for primary and secondary students.
They are growing rapidly since our humble beginning in January 2020. In Pandai, they aim to provide high-quality education to our students. They constantly received good feedback on its convenience as it is accessible anywhere as it is an advanced learning method than the traditional paper-pencil, which captivates students’ attention and eases the parents as well.
However, COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 led to the strong need to accelerate digital readiness among schools and organisations. In the same year, we developed the Pandai app as an online learning solutions for students to thrive – in line with our mission to transform the learning space with technology. This year, we presented our pitch to Hong Leong Bank LaunchPad 2022 and managed to go to the final round with only 5 other applicants.
Other than that, we work hand-in-hand with experienced teachers and schools towards developing Malaysian citizens who are knowledgeable, competent, and able to contribute to the harmony and betterment of society. Today, they are commencing widely in Brunei and currently doing a free premium feature for all students at a young age.
Pandai provides practice questions to help students learn and build a conceptual understanding of major school subjects in the National Curriculum. In addition to the content developed by the Pandai team, the learning materials on Pandai are sourced from experienced educators and leading academic publishers, with new practice questions being added every day. The content is designed to be dynamic in order to support students from other countries, with bilingual content for Mathematics and Sciences. They are also planning on adding Chinese content soon.
Pandai question bank is categorized using different ranges of thinking skills and difficulty to cater to all progress levels. For gamification elements, they are integrated to motivate and engage students to self-study using the app. Their unique diagnostic tools identify students’ strengths and weaknesses, and recommend specific lessons and practices to improve. In order to support students’ achievement beyond school, Pandai also provides extracurricular content such as competition preparation materials for mathematics, science, and computational thinking. Pandai also is developing separate Pandai Parents and Pandai Guru apps to complete the ecosystem.
Pandai is now active with Pandai @ Schools which was designed and implemented to assist and relieve teachers’ burdens on tasks outside of school hours through the App’s features such as Quizzes, Exams, Flashcards, and Live Tuition. The project focuses on the four core subjects (BM, BI Maths, and Science) that they can also learn outside of the syllabus; such as KAFA, Kangaroo Maths, and Beaver Computational Thinking.
As we celebrate our third anniversary today, we reflect on our journey to be the positive disruptor in education for our communities. With close to 500,000 students benefitted thus far, we are humbled and thankful to have grown so much with all our Pandai app users.
As media liaisons, we act as spokespeople for the company when the media cites us and our team will guide us on how to respond to media queries. We will remain steadfast to realise our vision to equip today’s young minds for tomorrow!
