iSolution & Dar Al Fikr: Where Collaboration and Engagement Lead the Way
iSolution implemented Google for Education solutions and collaborated with the Dar Al Fikr Senior Leadership Team to address education technology challenges and propose transformational solutions within the Google for Education ecosystem.
The challenge
The school’s BYOD approach created several problems. Keeping student information safe was difficult, and the school’s computer network was easily attacked by viruses. Additionally, it was hard to protect students’ data and devices, as they were not compatible with all the different operating systems. Finally, it was difficult to ensure exams were conducted securely on all devices.
The solution
By transitioning to Google for Education’s ecosystem, iSolution helped Dar Al Fikr revolutionize teaching and learning. We proposed durable and secure Chromebooks to address BYOD concerns, Chrome Upgrade to safeguard students online, KIOSK mode to empower teachers, and Google Workspace for Education’s vast learning apps to enhance curriculum delivery, making lessons engaging and interactive.
The result
iSolution and Google Cloud revolutionized Dar Al Fikr’s teaching and learning with collaborative tools, Google Classroom, and Chromebooks — enabling real-time interaction, streamlining assignment collaboration, facilitating curriculum delivery, organizing learning, improving communication and accessibility, and simplifying IT management while safeguarding students.
Embracing Chromebooks has revolutionized Dar Al Fikr’s technology landscape, with 40% student adoption and nearly 50% staff utilization. This shift has streamlined technical support and enhanced remote device management. Partnering with iSolution, Dar Al Fikr is poised to achieve a fully Google-powered environment, fostering a seamless learning ecosystem.
Dar Al Fikr Schools
The Dar Al Fikr Schools was established in 1985 when a number of Saudi businessmen called for establishing a non-profit national school in Jeddah that would provide the people of Jeddah with quality education inspiring the values of Islam and delivering Islamic culture, on par with the education provided by respected U.S. and British schools.
