Learning Supercharged: KooBits EDU Online Practice Tests Offer Rewards, Social Features

Competitive elements and prizes motivate kids, while parents get performance reports

    SINGAPORE, November 07, 2011 /Internet PR News/ -- 4 November 2011 - Free practice worksheets for children are easily found online, but what if you could get your children to want to do them? By adding competition and reward elements in their practice tests, digital publishing company KooBits has created an online portal where primary/elementary school students can practice exam questions in an entertaining environment.

At KooBits EDU (http://edu.koobits.com), users are presented with practice tests on various topics for Math, English, or Chinese. Questions are arranged in an interactive ebook format, and the user earns points upon completing each ebook - which can be redeemed for gift cards or even iPads. While the practice tests on KooBits EDU are free, a paid membership option containing detailed progress reports is available for parents who want to track their child's improvement.

What distinguishes KooBits EDU from similar offerings, however, is the abundance of social features: a global scoreboard lets you see where you rank among other players, while achievement-based reward badges called KooCards provide positive reinforcement. KooBits also intends to add more social elements such as user profiles and eventually, a network for students to interact and challenge each other.

"We see KooBits EDU as a step towards leveraging technology and the open Web to benefit every child in his learning journey. Eventually, our goal is to work with schools and teachers to create practice quizzes and worksheets in line with their lesson materials." said KooBits CEO Stanley Han.

KooBits EDU currently has over 200 free practice tests for English and Chinese language, as well as Singapore Math. All practice tests are available at http://edu.koobits.com.

KooBits Pte Ltd develops software, digital content, and e-publishing solutions for general consumers and the education industry. Its goal is to offer consumers, authors, and publishers a ubiquitous platform to publish and read interactive ebooks. KooBits has partnered with leading physical book distributors Tien Wah Press and PaperCutz, as well as independent authors, to produce over 3,000 ebooks.

In addition to its top-rated software KooBits 4.0, the company is the creator of KooBits EDU, a top website with interactive practice tests for children.
