About EmoEles

EmoEles (pronounced M.O.L.S.)

EmoEles is stylised after the acronym M.O.L.S., which stands for Mensah-Okyere Learning System. It is a learning tool that stimulates critical thinking and discourages the tendency for students to use the rote ‘chew and pour’ method of learning.

EmoEles brings what we call the PAR, which involves the elements of critical thinking, to life. The PAR constitutes the engine of EmoEles. This means EmoEles makes use of the basic elements of critical thinking i.e. analysis, synthesis, application, etc. It goes further to exceed these expectations by requiring that the learner sets competent questions to purposefully direct his/her learning. Among other functionalities, it also integrates the use of mnemonics for the learner to retain factual information during study.

Since it requires only a study notebook to use EmoEles, it becomes a handy tool for students anywhere to use at any time without the need for a computer or electricity to propel it. EmoEles integrates a system of spaced repetition that works flawlessly in a paper notebook thus attaining an almost similar application as a computer-based programme. An e-version of the EmoEles is currently at the labs.

The Creators

The tool is created by Cledor Education through extensive research and pilots initiated since July 2007 by seasoned professionals and educationists, notable are F. A. Mensah-Okyere, Prof. Joseph K. Essuman (PhD), Edward T. Atta (PhD) and Rev. Fr. John Straathof (SVD). The pilot programme has so far been beneficial to thousands of pupils and students in Ghana, recently through the LCs since the year 2014.
