Kuwait to host smart learning forum next week

KUWAIT, Oct 30 (KUNA) -- Smart learning is a sophisticated method used to spur and stimulate the sharing of the best practices at educational, academic and training institutions worldwide, a smart learning forum team head said here on Thursday.
Modern learning methods are developed to revamp the educational system and to help students obtain online information so easily, Samah Al-Farhan told a news conference held ahead of a smart learning forum due to be held here between November 4-5.
Smart learning is based on modern methods purposed to reduce students' health hazards and to ease out heavy school bag burdens, he said.
Sophisticated learning methods are designed to overhaul the educational system in Kuwait as concerted efforts are exerted by various state bodies to notch up such an end, Al-Farhan pointed out.
On the forum, he said it is an initiative that brings together a number of public agencies and institutions in order to contribute to developing and revamping the educational process in Kuwait by means of introducing modern methods.
It is the shared responsibility of students, parents, teachers and educational sectors to develop the educational system at home, he added. (end) ha.jk.mt
