SABAQ, an education-technology initiative, and Seed Pakistan, a non-profit organization, have signed a MoU to introduce technology into the primary classrooms of one of Seed's adopted government schools in Korangi Town. This partnership aims to familiarize young students with the use of digital resources for learning purposes and improve learning outcomes.

SABAQ has agreed to provide SEED with digital content for grades Kindergarten to 5. The content will include Maths, Urdu, English and Science subjects for every grade. In addition to the provision of content, SABAQ will also equip teachers with the capability of introducing and managing technology through in-depth teacher training and on-the-job support. To top it off, SABAQ will then measure impact of its content in classrooms by conducting assessments among students.

CEO and Co-founder of SABAQ, Hassan Bin Rizwan, displayed his enthusiasm about the project. At the signing, he said, "SABAQ's mission is to create an atmosphere of fun, engagement and constructive interaction in classrooms, and ultimately, improve students' learning gains. Our work with SEED will bring us all a step closer to providing high quality education to Pakistan's young learners."

Ahsan Mashkoor, the President of SEED Pakistan, felt similarly. "We believe this partnership will assist us in integrating technology in our classrooms and providing opportunities for our students to learn through progressive techniques.-PR
