Methodology of BOOKR Class
With the methodology of BOOKR Class, teachers can create a supportive, inclusive, and efficient learning environment that capitalizes on the benefits of scaffolding e-books to support every learner’s journey towards literacy and academic success.
Equity through Technology
Our methodology begins with the recognition of socioeconomic disparities in educational outcomes. We leverage the leveling power of technology, integrating scaffolding e-books into the classroom to provide all students, regardless of background, with access to learning tools that can enhance their educational journey.
Enhanced Learning Efficiency
We incorporate advanced information and communication technologies in our educational practice. This approach has been substantiated by research to significantly refine the efficiency of teaching and learning processes, and is a cornerstone of our methodology.
Assistive Technology Integration
Scaffolding e-books are a key component of our assistive technology strategy. These resources are specially designed to aid students who encounter difficulties with conventional texts, making challenging content more approachable and comprehensible.
Motivation through Gamification
Our methodology harnesses the motivational power of gamified interactive books. These engaging resources are crafted to sustain the interest of all learners, especially young and reluctant readers, and are integral in transforming reading from a task to an enjoyable experience.
Consistent Support for Dyslexic Students
We provide persistent support for students with dyslexia through e-books with scaffolding functions. These are not temporary aids but consistent, long-term tools aligned with the individual learning needs as identified by cognitive profile tests.
Cultivating Academic Achievement
Central to our methodology is the selection of content that not only engages but also promotes the development of reading habits linked to academic success. We choose scaffolding e-books that not only intrigue but also encourage continuous improvement in reading proficiency.
Our Methodology in Practice
Cognitive Profile Alignment: We utilize cognitive profile assessments to guide the implementation of scaffolding e-books, ensuring they meet the specific needs of each student.
Varied Content Implementation: A wide array of e-books is selected to cater to different interests and learning levels, reflecting the diversity of our student population.
Routine Inclusion: Scaffolding e-books are a staple in our curriculum, ensuring students regularly engage with the material.
Adaptive Feedback Mechanisms: We continually assess student interaction with e-books, using insights to fine-tune our methodology and e-book selection to optimize learning outcomes.
ADHD and Dyslexia Support
BOOKR Class’s unique book format was designed to serve as a supportive multimedia environment that proves highly effective for children with special needs, such as ADHD and dyslexia.
Accessibility and Engagement
At BOOKR Class, we strongly believe in the power of accessible and engaging content to shape a positive learning experience. Our platform is equipped with scaffolding features designed to promote a higher level of engagement and deeper understanding of the texts, leading to a more successful learning outcome, particularly for struggling learners.
Diminish the Achievement Gap
Students will find their motivation, reading habits, and language skills significantly enhanced in a stress-free and supportive environment. The heightened engagement and increased exposure time positively influence their academic performance and foster their inclusion in the learning process and classroom community.
By providing an inclusive, engaging, and accessible learning platform, BOOKR Class aims to diminish the achievement gap. We are committed to contributing to children’s personal development, empowering them to reach their full potential.
BOOKR Class supports learners with Dyslexia and ADHD

Text highlighting following the pace of the voiceover

Social-Emotional Learning
Social-emotional skills, empathy, openness, communicative skills, and other soft skills that some students might lack because of their family background or socioeconomic status.
BOOKR offers a wide range of books focusing on social-emotional learning and soft skill development.
Coping
At BOOKR, besides entertaining, we put emphasis on mental health by creating stories about the potentially tough situations and dilemmas – like starting school, sibling jealousy, illness, death, prejudice and bullying – that children may face.
Discovering characters in stories that share similar experiences to them, helps children feel less alone and may also help them to better understand and cope with a challenging situation.
Many children find it difficult to identify and communicate how they are feeling. Reading stories can help them to understand themselves better and give them all a great starting point for discussion.
Cross-Cultural Understanding
Representation matters.
Diverse books of the BOOKR library act as “mirrors” which allow minority groups to see a reflection of themselves in books and become a form of self-affirmation.
BOOKR books display characters of various colors, body type, socio-economic status, family background, disability, and culture.
Personalized Learning with AI
Here’s why this is revolutionary for educators like you:
Monitor pronunciation skills with AI-based speech recognition
Leverage advanced AI speech recognition to track and assess student pronunciation with precision. Our platform offers detailed word-by-word analysis and a built-in recording feature, ensuring an objective and holistic evaluation of language skills.
Continuous Real-Time Feedback and Assessment
Our strategy strongly emphasizes constant real-time feedback and assessment powered by AI. Through this, we can measure student progress, identify areas that require attention, and adapt our educational materials to optimize learning outcomes continually.
Pioneering Assessments with Comprehension Quizzes
BOOKR Class has introduced a revolutionary AI-driven feature that allows teachers to generate nuanced comprehension tests for one or multiple books seamlessly. This not only enhances the accuracy and relevance of the quizzes but also provides customization, enabling educators to select and design quizzes that align perfectly with their teaching goals. This innovation streamlines assessment, making learning more targeted and meaningful.
Optimizing Accessibility and Convenience
By situating these quizzes in an easily navigable “Tests” or “Assessments” section within the BOOKR Class app and the Teacher’s Dashboard, we ensure that this innovation is easily accessible and usable. This simplicity is pivotal, encouraging more widespread adoption of this advanced tool among educators.
Facilitating Structured Learning
The capability to assign tests with set deadlines fosters a structured learning environment, ensuring learning is systematic, timely, and engaging. It encourages regular interaction with learning materials and enhances student commitment.
Instantaneous Feedback
Providing immediate feedback post-assessment accelerates the learning process by instantly addressing areas of improvement. It also liberates educators from the time-intensive grading process, allowing them to allocate more time to instructional activities.
Tailoring Learning with AI-Generated Word Lists
Our personalized word lists are crafted using AI, offering educators a starting point to modify and align vocabulary sets to their instructional goals. This innovation is not confined to assessments but extends to classroom activities, making learning versatile, enjoyable, and interactive.
Promoting Universal Accessibility
The feature enabling simple, level-accurate descriptions of focus words within the book supports all learners, especially those with specific learning needs like SLI and dyslexia. It ensures inclusive learning, allowing every child to extract maximum understanding and enjoyment from the stories.
Supporting Word Production
Going beyond mere comprehension, our innovative tool aids in word production, empowering learners to incorporate new words accurately in their verbal and written communications. This facilitates a more profound mastery of language, promoting articulate expression.
Personalized AI Recommendation System
Our system employs a user-friendly AI algorithm to understand and predict each student’s learning preferences. By analyzing how students interact with different materials, it identifies patterns and provides tailor-made content recommendations. This approach not only saves time for English teachers but also ensures that every student receives engaging, level-appropriate reading and learning resources, making education more effective and enjoyable.

Adaptable for Diverse Subjects
BOOKR Class features an exciting range of Content- and Language-Integrated Learning (CLIL) books. Designed to enhance language learning, these books systematically introduce learners to a variety of subjects, including history and science, across three distinct reading levels.
What is CLIL?
CLIL is a transformative teaching approach, intertwining subject content and English language learning. Characterized by a dual focus on both areas, CLIL is exemplified in bilingual education, where students explore subjects like geography and world history in their target language. It fosters effective communication and employs scientifically backed strategies.
The implementation of CLIL aligns with Coyle’s 4C curriculum, which underscores the importance of content, communication, cognition, and culture. The BOOKR Class story of ‘Thessalonike’ perfectly demonstrates this approach.
Why is CLIL advantageous for students?
So, why is CLIL advantageous for your students? It provides valuable, applicable knowledge that extends beyond just reading comprehension and vocabulary enhancement. It paves the way for academic advancement and renders content-based education useful in language and content contexts. The CLIL classroom offers an authentic learning environment with well-structured, skill-level appropriate materials that maintain an academic appeal.
Engaging students with actual subject matter and content-based lessons, CLIL brings a sense of excitement to learning. It facilitates the internalization of content and skills, promotes a positive attitude toward learning, and reinforces English as a powerful tool for knowledge acquisition.
Research substantiates that despite initial challenges, CLIL classrooms yield significant improvements in students’ skills, including a broader range of specialized vocabulary, more efficient grammar application, and increased confidence in using a foreign language. That’s why BOOKR Class is committed to integrating diverse subjects into our books, broadening our scope from literature to other disciplines such as history, geography, and science. We are steadfast in our belief that this approach not only supports English language learning (ELL) but also contributes to the holistic development of students by improving critical thinking, creativity, problem-solving, social-emotional skills, and multicultural awareness.
