Through Revisions with Newly Added Feature to Informatics
Academy's e-Revision Service!
|
Anything 'e' is associated with convenience and flexibility. The
Informatics Academy e-Revision feature of Informatics is no exception.
As a value-added service that rides on a state of the art web-based
system, the e-Revision service is made available through the online
portal, Informatics
Virtual Campus (IVC) and allows you to assess your level
readiness for the selected module and ultimately, proficiency in
sitting for the final examinations.
Informatics Academy is proud to announce the launch of the latest
feature of the e-Revision service, the Live Chat Session. This allows
you to interact live with Unit Leaders at the closing session of
the revision process. PurpleTrain students, with your experience
of e-Learning will of course have no difficulty taking up this innovative
feature, in fact, this will be a breeze!
E-Revision enhances your learning experience, enabling access learning
facilities and revision materials at any time of day and night,
anytime, anywhere. Due to its online characteristic, it is available
to all students from all over the world, as long as they have access
to the Internet and are able to log on to IVC.
What are the benefits?
- Personalised guidance from academic
leaders
- 24 x 7 accessibility
- Assessment of strengths and weaknesses
- Provision of professional academic
solutions
- Review and discussion of past term
questions
- On-going revision until actual examinations
Since its launch, the Informatics Academy e-Revision service has
been providing students examination preparation sessions at the
end of every term for the past 4 terms. For the minimal fee of USD
40 per module, students are able to download revision notes, past
term examination papers and are post up queries at the discussion
board. In addition to that, of course, students can now interact
with facilitators through the live chat function.
Student Bobby Winarto from
Indonesia is full of praise for the e-Revision service. "The
timing is perfect! I'm sure that there are many students like me
who, for whatever reason, fall into the pattern of cramming for
their examinations at the very last minute. But the convenience
of having the revision notes and past exam papers available online
will motivate me to go through them before interaction with the
Unit Leader so that I can really clarify my doubts!"
"One of the advantages of the e-Revision service is
that students are able to communicate directly with the Unit Leaders
and lecturers to clarify whatever queries they might have at the
end of the semester. The timeliness of the e-Revision session is
extremely beneficial to students as the sessions with lecturers
and facilitators occur when should be completing their revisions
for examinations. This is certainly more useful as compared to having
the sessions at the start or middle of the module"
said David Wang, Director, Informatics
Academy.
Informatics Academy looks forward to continue playing an active
role in students' learning process through the e-Revision service.
To thank students for their continuous support, Informatics Academy
is happy to offer the promotional rate of USD 70 for any first 2
modules registered.
