We are thrilled to share the incredible news that Lina Yanbastieva-Petrova, a remarkable educator we have the privilege of working with, has been honored with the Teacher of the Year Award in Shumen, Bulgaria. We celebrate her achievements, her commitment to education, and the impact she is having on students' lives.

We first met Lina in 2016 at our summer training. Since then, she has become a certified trainer and has co-hosted numerous mozaWeb/mozaBook webinars. She has published a journal article on foreign language teaching with mozaBook, and has presented mozaBook to a wide audience of teachers and teacher trainees. With her colleagues, Lina spent the entire summer of 2022 in our headquarters in Szeged, enhancing our content so that teachers in Bulgaria would find them tailored to their purposes. She has been the author of a number of insightful digital lessons and various other content as well. We can honestly say, it is a pleasure to work with her. We are not surprised at all that her skills and dedication were recognized on such a high level. She is truly an innovative teacher, always staying up-to-date with educational advancements.  

The award was presented by the Mayor of Shumen Municipality and the Chairman of the Municipal Council.

Congratulations, Lina! Your remarkable achievements are inspiring and your students are lucky to have you as their teacher. We are proud to have you on our team!

SETT Stockholm 2023

27 April 2023 Viktória Csanádi

SETT is Scandinavia's largest exhibition and conference on innovative and modern learning. SETT stands for "Scandinavian Educational Technology Transformation" and focuses on getting the school's professional employees to feel inspired, increase their curiosity, and gain more knowledge regarding how modern learning can be developed in schools toward higher achievement. 

In 2023 we attended as exhibitors to support our partner, Optoma Scandinavia. The 3-day long attracts visitors from all across the Nordic region. This exhibition is not only a good opportunity for solution providers to showcase their latest products but for teachers to see what are the newest trends in education technology. 

SETT also hosted several presentations of the latest research results of K-12 and higher education, as well as table talks with prominent representatives.  The conference program inspiration comes directly from teachers, preschool teachers, educators, school leaders, and suppliers who have experience in changing the way schools and preschools learn.

12 April 2023 Viktória Csanádi

 

Bett is the most extensive Education Technology exhibition in the world, which brings together Educators from across the entire education landscape and 600+ innovative EdTech and resource solution providers showcasing cutting-edge and impactful products and services. You can find solutions for all education settings, challenges, and budgets, from global tech companies to renowned education brands to startups.

This year Bett welcomed more than 30 thousand visitors from more than 123 countries. We were delighted that we could be there as one of the more than 600 exhibitors. 

As a leader in content development for K-12 education, Mozaik Education has been one of Bett's most stable solution providers for the last decade. This year, however, was extra special for us since this is our 10th time as exhibitors in London. We had exceptionally busy days during the show and had promising and valuable conversations with appreciated members of the education community from all across the globe. These meetings always remind us that teachers and students need the same thing in every classroom regardless of which part of the world they are located in easy-to-use and high-quality education material supported by reliable hardware solutions. 

We were happy to be a part of this experience and meet new people such as long-time partners to discuss new opportunities and the next step in digitalization!

 

This year was special because of another aspect for us, because this year some of our developers also visited us to see the fruit of their hard work in action, we were glad to have them there!

We would like to thank you for your massive interest in our products and your visit to our stand! If you didn't have the time or the chance to meet us in person at Bett, don't worry, we are happy to chat with you!

See you in 2024!

Didacta Italia - 2nd year together with our partners

We are excited to share our experience at Didacta Italia 2023, which was held in Florence from March 8th to 10th. Didacta Italia is the most important event in the field of education in Italy, bringing together educators, school administrators, policymakers, and edtech companies from across the country and around the world.

The venue for this year's event was the beautiful Fortezza da Basso, which provided an excellent backdrop for the various conferences, workshops, and exhibits that made up the event. As I walked around the different halls, we were struck by the sheer size of the event and the number of people in attendance. There were over 300 exhibitors showcasing a wide range of products and services, from traditional textbooks to virtual reality educational tools.
One of the event's highlights was the keynote address delivered by the Italian Minister of Education, who spoke about the importance of investing in education and creating a more inclusive and equitable system. The Minister's address was followed by a panel discussion that featured experts from various fields discussing the challenges facing the education system and how they can be addressed.

Another event highlight was the exhibition area, where companies and organizations showcased their latest products and services. We were particularly interested in the edtech companies that were exhibiting, as they are playing an increasingly important role in shaping the future of education. There were virtual reality tools, educational apps, and interactive whiteboards, among other products.

Our partners, Campustore and La Nostra Storia In Gioco represented Mozaik Education’s products and services with discounts, bundle offers, and amazing visual displays that brought in a huge amount of new interested teachers, parents, and students. 

You can see our Italian partners and their contact data on our partner list page: https://www.mozaweb.com/en/Portal/partners?country=IT 

Overall, Didacta Italia 2023 is an incredibly informative and inspiring event. It provided a great opportunity to learn about the latest trends and innovations in education and to connect with other educators and professionals in the field. We look forward to attending next year's event and seeing how the education landscape continues to evolve together with our partners.

7 March 2023 Viktória Csanádi

We at Mozaik Education, being a part of the world AV and systems integration community, could not miss one of the leading exhibitions in this area, the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2023 which took place from 31 January - 03 February in Barcelona, Spain. It was a pleasure for us to cooperate and discuss new business opportunities with the world’s leading technology innovators and solutions providers. It is always a great honor for us to be involved in various conferences, events, and experiences. 

As a result, the show surpassed all expectations as it delivered record visitor numbers which this year accounted for 58,107 unique attendees from 155 countries. Looking back we can definitely say it has been an extraordinary week for us working alongside major AV brands for the sake of education making sure we can combine the best from these two industries. A ground-breaking visit from the King of Spain on Tuesday and the President of Catalonia on Thursday added both a royal and a political seal of approval to the show. 

ISE 2023 was very special for one more reason!

This year we were co-exhibiting Optoma UK whom we have joined forces to bring the best in education solutions to the classrooms!

Release Note - mozaBook 2023.1 update features

14 February 2023 Mara Sajtos

The Mozaik team is thrilled to introduce the new 2023.1. release of the mozaBook software. Besides a great deal of background work to increase performance and stability, we have added some new features and new content as well. In this post, you can read about the highlights of the new version.


New version numbers for mozaBook
Now you can identify easily whether you have the most updated mozaBook. The versions from now on follow the school year format. So the current mozaBook is 2023.1. The year 2023 in the version is linked to the 2022/2023 school year, therefore the next version update (planned for August), will be labelled mozaBook 2024.1.
 

Full download or Update?
When you start your mozaBook for the first time after the new version is available, it will prompt you to choose from these options: Full download, Update, Later. 

  • Later is very straightforward, by choosing Later, you will keep your current version running and postpone any updates for a later time.
  • Choosing Update will install the latest/new version of those components that are currently installed within your mozaBook space on the given device and will fetch and install any further component updates from the mozaWeb server later, when and if needed.
  • A Full download will download the new version completely, which includes the full installer package as well as any side packages that might be needed later. 

If you typically use mozaBook on a device that has an active internet connection, we recommend choosing Update and letting any additional updates be installed on the go. However, if you also use mozaBook in an offline environment, we highly recommend choosing Full download, so that any components can be installed later even without an active internet connection.

Smaller mozaBook software updates and fixes are available from the login and publication selection screen of mozaBook, as well - please check regularly and install available updates for the most seamless user experience. 

   


New content type and new category next to tools and games: Quizzes
New logical and mathematical quizzes are included in both mozaBook and mozaWeb. They challenge students to think critically and logically, helping them to develop their problem-solving skills. It promotes active learning, encourages practice and reviews, and provides motivation and engagement.

Besides the pedagogical added value of this new content type it’s also important to mention that due to being a fully graphical, text-exclusive content type, it is language-independent. Many of them can be used even at the KG level.

Within a quiz users have to choose the correct option from several ones, mark it, and after highlighting the correct solution, the quiz will automatically move on to the next question. Generally, there is no time limit, if there is, it counts down from the first touch.

On mozaWeb the quizzes are organized into different groups: 

  • Kindergarten workbook
  • Lower grades mathematics
  • Match
  • Logic
  • Visual arts
  • General

On mozaWeb, quizzes have their own datasheet which lists the suggested level, related quizzes and shows screenshots of the quiz elements. 

In mozaBook the quizzes are added to the >tools< as a separate tab.

mozaBook is now available in 46 languages
We are pleased to have more and more teacher and student users from new countries. In order to support their teaching and learning experiences new Kyrgyz and Uzbek languages are added to the system. Try out the interfaces and the interactive content in these new languages.

Erase without changing the function
Now you can simply grab a physical eraser and start erasing drawings on the touchscreen. mozaBook will automatically recognize your gesture and change the function from pen to eraser. It is so easy.

 

Easy access to Background settings from >templates< within the Media Library in mozaBook
The background settings of an exercise book such as Ruling, Theme, Binding, Texture, Layout, and Background color can be changed by opening Media Library → Templates → Background

New types of templates have been introduced in our previous update. It includes pre-set and pre-designed exercise book templates with flow charts, lists, and image pages among others.

Binding and margin arrangement
The arrangement of the margin and binding of an exercise book are opposite to each other, from now on binding is on the right side of the horizontal exercise book.

Localization for Bulgarian Grammar
A new Bulgarian line alignment (6:6:5)  is added to the page properties: Ruling. But as we mentioned above, now you can change the Ruling from the Media Library as well.

Image editor update - recoloring SVG images

Have you ever wanted to recolor an image for an exercise or for an illustration for an exercise book? Now you can with just a couple of clicks. Vector images (SVG) can be from now on recolored. A collection of different vector images are available within the thematic image gallery (Media Library → Source: Gallery) or alternatively, users can import their own SVG files.

Upon inserting a vector image into the exercise book, do a long click and select “Recolour vector image” from the drop-down menu. Then you can easily select the new colors for your image.

Other updates:

  • When resizing an object, the object's size is displayed.
  • When recording a screen capture video of a screen part, the size of the recording rectangle is displayed.
  • Idle users are logged out after a while and their name in mozaBook turns to red indicating that they have to log back again (mozaBook → User)
  • Deleted exercise books are stored for 1 month before being permanently deleted.
  • Opening HTML5 content can be placed on the tab for more comfortable usage. (So far it always opened in a new window, now it is possible to add them to a tab.)
  • If Geogebra is installed on the user’s device the inserted GeoGebra elements will open with GeoGebra, alternatively the GGB files open through the browser in an online viewer.
