Gone are the days of expensive data plans, unstable internet connections due to weak signals and power outages, and the need for complex software installations to do online homeschooling. Brainline’s Brain-in-a-Box, pre-installed on a USB device, makes access to quality education seamless and efficient.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This quality curriculum offers a complete product covering all subjects for learners from Gr. \u20094 to Gr. \u20097; is available in Afrikaans or English; and includes full video lessons and assessments. Included subjects are Afrikaans, English, Mathematics, Life Skills, Natural Science and Technology, as well as Social Science (Geography and History).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brain-in-a-Box is compiled in line with the South African curriculum<\/a> and is an excellent support product for learners in traditional schools. It also serves as a good test run for those unsure whether digital products or online homeschooling will work for their family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This “plug and play” USB device is especially valuable for learners in remote areas, as it does not rely on internet connectivity. It is compatible with Apple Mac and Windows computers, enabling learners to easily access their academic materials under the guidance of a parent or guardian. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The applications are interactive and user-friendly, and guidelines for marking and self-study are included in the tasks and tests portfolio package.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This innovative solution is the latest product from Brainline, which has been providing homeschooling solutions for learners from Gr.\u2009R to Gr.\u200912 for over 37 years. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brainline was the first online education provider to receive recognition from the Independent Examination Board (IEB).\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
