Case Study: American School of Doha improves economics teaching and student engagement with Kognity

American School of Doha - Customer Case Study

The American School of Doha, an international school in Qatar, faced challenges with outdated printed economics textbooks for its International Baccalaureate (IB) students. Their Economics teacher, Steven LoBianco, found that repurchasing physical books was expensive and time-consuming. Additional challenges included the immense workload of creating exam questions, grading homework, tracking student progress, and a lack of time for higher-level class discussions.

The school implemented Kognity’s all-in-one digital teaching and learning platform. Kognity provided constantly updated content with recent case studies and auto-correcting practice questions, which saved the teacher significant time on grading and preparation. This solution allowed the teacher to focus on more engaging, activity-based learning and made the course material more accessible and manageable for students, increasing their engagement.
