RDI WAS ANNOUNCED WINNER OF THIS COMPETITION (1st PLACE)
RDI won First prize in the 2007 World Summit Award contest for the best e-content/e-Learning track. We competed with about 850 other candidates from 160 countries.
This international prize is awarded for RDI’s Hafss© technology for the interactive learning of spoken language applied on the Tajweed.
With the DVD Hafss, a religious Muslim can learn the correct pronunciation of the Holy Book Koran. The learner listens to the ideal recitation of the electronic Sheikh of Kuttab and is asked to imitate it as close as he/she can.
Hafss analyzes the learner’s pronunciation and evaluates it according to the rules of Tajweed, it detects types and positions of errors in the input utterance and prepares appropriate corrective feedback.
The program presents the rules of AL- Tajweed science that improves the recital of the Koran. The application also presents an electronic book with an easily understandable format divided into lessons each covering a rule.
