As-salaam-u-alaikum
I have received a number of whatsap messages and emails regarding Online e-Learning Resources so I thought it best to place them onto one website for our educators and parents to access.
I have not checked all of these resources, so if some are not working or are not suitable, please inform me via email mjhoosen@alfalaah.org.za
Also, feel free to email me any links to other resources.
Regards
M.J. Hoosen

What is it about?
Shuter and Shooter Publishers is happy to offer free E-Books to all South Africans.
This is in response to the government restrictions that are aimed at combatting the Covid-19 virus. Schools are closed for an extended period of time and we know that there will be anxiety about keeping up with the year's academic schedule. So, if you are worried about falling behind in school, these free E-Books are just what you need. We have created a selected range of Study Guides, Practice Books and Readers to help you keep up with your studies while you practise social distancing. All you need to do is register an account, install our E-Book reader and then download the free E-Books we have created for you. This offer is valid until end April 2020.
Please follow the below to access your ebooks from www.shuters.co.za:
Register for an account. If you have already registered, sign in.
Select the product you require.
Click on the ‘R0.00/90 Days’ button. This will bring up the ‘Add to Library’ button. The book has now been added to your library.
Download the eduReader software for PC from the downloads option in the menu. For an Android device, download the eduReader from the Play Store. For iOS, from the iStore.
Install the software and be sure to accept the agreement that pops up, as you will not be able to access anything until this.
Open the application, Go to ‘Manage Ebooks in the menu. Download your books, wait for completion.
Go to the Library in the menu, open your eBook.
So make an account online and download the app. The app is a bit finicky, so you may need to close and reopen a few times to get it to say online.
They are offering textbooks from grade 8 to 12. Seems like the Ace IT study guides
