How Araboo works
A guided tour of every Araboo surface — for pupils, teachers and school admins. Skim the table of contents or read end to end.
Who Araboo is for
Three audiences share the platform. What you see when you log in depends on the role(s) your account carries.
Pupils
Land on the Student Dashboard. Continue lessons their teacher assigned, practise to build skill mastery, earn points and unlock trophies.
Teachers
Land on the Teacher Workspace. Build groups, assign resources, mark Upload & Recorder responses, generate reports and run AI Tools to lighten the prep load.
School admins
Get the School Portal on top of the Teacher Workspace. Manage staff seats, set the curriculum whitelist, download reports, upload the school logo and oversee billing.
Student dashboard لوحة التلميذ
The dashboard at /student-dashboard/ is the pupil's home. It opens to the Home tab — a bilingual welcome banner, a four-stat tile row, a six-step learning-cycle indicator, a continue-where-you-left-off section and today's plan.
The five tabs
- Home — The daily landing. Stats, continue section, practise tiles, today's plan.
- Practise — Skill radar, donut rings, trophy shelf, topic bars and score trend.
- Games — Word games suite and the five-mode AI Arabic arcade.
- Results — Assigned-resource grid, attempt history, earned certificates with PDF download.
- Resources — Every interactive activity in the school catalogue, with skill/level/status filters.
Activity player المشغّل
The player runs every Araboo activity — auto-graded quizzes, reading lessons, listening exercises, voice recorder prompts and full mixed sets. Pupils open it from any lesson link; teachers preview it from the Resource Creator.
Arabic sizing
A small A−/A/A+ control at the top of the question stack scales every Arabic word on the page. The browser remembers the preference across lessons.
Sticky audio
Any audio or text-to-speech block flagged as Sticky-top in the Creator pins to a persistent bar so pupils can replay the prompt at any point.
Section completion
On reading-lesson layouts, each section gets a tick when read. Completed sections paint green and the next-up section highlights as Current.
Voice recorder
Speaking prompts capture the pupil's microphone (HTTPS required), upload the audio to the cloud, and queue it for the teacher to mark.
Rewards, streaks & trophies
Points fall out of activity. Pupils earn them automatically for completing lessons, passing quizzes, hitting perfect scores, keeping a streak alive, and from the occasional teacher award. Crossing a points threshold unlocks the next tier.
Streaks
A streak counts distinct days on which the pupil submitted a score OR completed a reading-only lesson. The trophy shelf unlocks the 3-day and 7-day streak badges automatically.
Placement test اختبار تحديد المستوى
On first dashboard load, a polite modal invites the pupil to sit a 12-question placement test pegged to one of the six CEFR bands (A1 through C2). The result stamps the pupil's level and feeds every downstream recommendation.
- 1. Pupil sees the suggestion modal — once per device, dismissible.
- 2. Picks a starting band (the system can also default to A2).
- 3. 12 questions: 8 grammar/vocab, 1 reading, 1 short answer, 1 listening, 1 speaking recorder.
- 4. Score ≥75% suggests the next band up; 50–74% confirms current; <50% drops a band.
- 5. Result stamps to the pupil profile; the dashboard hero pill paints the CEFR badge.
Teacher workspace مساحة المعلّم
The workspace at /workspace/ is the teacher control panel. A warm coral welcome banner sits up top, with seven bilingual tabs beneath.
Overview
Four stat tiles (pupils, attempts, average, pending reviews), soft group cards with progress bars, recent submissions table.
Groups
Per-class management. Roll, join-code regeneration, per-group settings.
Assignments
Push resources to groups, set due dates, see who's done what.
Gradebook
Every attempt with score, time and a Mark button for teacher-graded responses (Upload + Voice Recorder).
Library
Two views — Library (school-published resources by other teachers, Clone button) and My Resources (own creations, Edit + Delete).
Stats
Pupil-by-pupil skill heatmap, topic averages, CEFR cohort summary.
Resource Creator منشئ الموارد
The Creator builds a resource by stacking blocks. Content blocks set the stage; question blocks score the pupil. Save publishes it to the library; the player runs it verbatim.
Content blocks
- Text / Passage
- Instruction
- Image
- Audio
- Text to speech
- Video
- Section
- Accordion
- Countdown
- Embed
Question blocks
- Multiple choice
- True / False
- Short answer
- Fill in the blank
- Matching pairs
- Ordering
- Translation
- Drag & drop
- File upload
- Voice recorder
- Flashcards
Mix Past Papers مزج الأوراق
Build a fresh paper from any combination of exam-board questions sitting in the library. Drag question blocks into a tray, drop them into a destination paper, and the system compiles a brand-new resource the teacher can assign immediately.
- 1. Filter the source rail by exam board, year, paper, skill, level.
- 2. Drag question blocks into the tray on the right.
- 3. Inspector pane previews the selected question, with warnings flagging duplicates or media-heavy picks.
- 4. Hit Compile; the engine builds a fresh araboo_resource with a 'mixed' source tag.
- 5. Assign or push to the library like any other resource.

Dashboard

Teachers

All school groups across all teachers, with bulk regenerate / open / close join codes.

Reports

School logo
Every school can upload its own logo. Once set, the logo surfaces across pupil-facing chrome, certificates, reports and the post-checkout confirmation page — no further action needed.
How to upload
- 1. Open /school-portal/ as the school owner.
- 2. Click the rounded thumbnail next to the school name.
- 3. Drop a PNG, JPG or WebP into the modal (up to 2 MB) and hit Replace.
- 4. That's it — every surface picks it up on next render.
Where it appears
- Portal header thumbnail — click to replace.
- Pupil dashboard welcome banner — replaces the buildings icon next to the school name.
- School reports PDF — paints into the top-left of the title row.
- Certificates — a 14 mm corner mark, opposite the centre crest.
- Checkout confirmation page — appears with a 'You're now managing X' brand stamp the first time the school owner completes checkout.
Certificates الشهادات
Pupils earn certificates automatically when they complete a level (every lesson at a CEFR band, no remedials open) or when a teacher issues one manually from the gradebook.
Each cert carries
- Bilingual heading (Arabic + English).
- Pupil name (auto-shrinking type for long names).
- Course or level title, school name, date.
- Issuing teacher's name in the bottom-left badge.
- Unique cert code + verify URL (araboo.co.uk/verify/XXXXXXXX).
