The Alef Education Award aims to achieve four objectives – motivate teachers, administrators, students and parents from the UAE’s government schools to excel and innovate in the implementation of digital learning via the award-winning, AI-powered Alef Platform; provide a constructive and encouraging educational environment for the students; improve digital citizenship skills and e-community awareness during the distance learning process; and strengthen the culture of digital learning among teachers, students and administrators of public schools in support of the UAE’s vision for the next fifty years. Geoffrey Alphonso, Chief Executive Officer, Alef Education, said: “The UAE has always been at the forefront of embracing innovative technologies, and our gathering today to celebrate excellence in the digital education sector is a clear testament of that. Working alongside the UAE’s education authorities, Alef Education is proud to enable over 150,000 students from 400+ public schools in the UAE to have the best digital education. Through the Alef Education Award, we want to recognise the real trailblazers of our education community that have excelled in digital education delivered through the Alef Platform in the past year.” Dr Aishah Al Yammahi, Board Advisor, Alef Education, stated: “As the UAE celebrates its Golden Jubilee, we’re proud to reward outstanding schools, educators, students, and parents for excelling in digital teaching and learning practices at the Alef Education Award 2021. Since our inception in 2015, Alef Education has leveraged technologies like AI and Big Data to transform the UAE’s education ecosystem, improving learning outcomes and enabling students to gain crucial skills for their future careers.” “I’m also pleased to announce that Alef Education Award will be going global in its next edition.
