Partnership Models
Explore the ways your company or agency can work with SLS, from content development to app integration and external engines.
Partnership Models
We offer the following models for companies or agencies to form partnerships with the SLS:
Content Development
MOE currently procures quality content that is aligned to its curriculum or engages external content developers to create and customise resources for use by students and teachers in SLS.
MOE is looking at accelerating such external content procurement and creation, i.e.
In formal curriculum, create or procure interactive digital resources and content such as video, AR/VR, games and interactives/simulations. Where possible to weave the digital resources and content into a digital textbook for the secondary school level, based on MOE subject-specific syllabuses.
In informal curriculum, create or procure interactive digital resources and content to enable students to learn on their own based on the following areas: Sustainability, STEM, heritage and culture etc.
Websites/Apps
SLS can whitelist content/tools which are offered freely or have a free tier if they do not conflict with its partnership principles. Content/tools which were previously being marketed directly to schools or teachers as standalone offerings can now be presented holistically with other content/tools used in SLS resources.
Companies can further discuss integration opportunities with SLS, particularly if they are already LTI 1.3 compliant and have experience integrating their apps with other Learning Management Systems (LMSs) and have a significant user base amongst Singapore schools.
External Engines
SLS has built proprietary APIs to leverage external engines that offer enhanced capabilities in text-to-speech and speech evaluation. External engines can be integrated into SLS through the Application Development Framework (ADF) (opens in new tab).
Companies possessing external engines with advanced capabilities can:
Offer the capability for integration with SLS as a standalone service,
Offer the capability as a separate service for integration with SLS (if it is currently part of a broader product), or
Offer consulting and system integration services that can bring together SLS’s existing APIs and current integration flows with existing cloud services.
Companies or agencies that are interested to partner with the SLS Office can approach:
The relevant MOE divisions (opens in new tab) to indicate their interest.
The Curriculum Planning and Development Division to indicate interest in resource creation and weaving the resources and content into digital textbooks (opens in new tab).
