Our Planet International School Pilot

Why Hachette, Why Now

Why this is a natural fit

1

Existing content adoption

OPIS already uses Hachette Learning Mathematics and Science titles across Grades 7–10. This pilot builds on an established content relationship rather than introducing an unfamiliar curriculum.

2

A school actively seeking innovation

OPIS wants to explore adaptive, personalised learning experiences that help students engage more deeply with trusted classroom content.

3

A controlled path to AI-enhanced content

A safe, focused environment for Hachette to test how its high-quality content can be made more interactive, adaptive and measurable through Mappi’s AI learning platform.

What Mappi delivers

How the Pilot Works

From content approval to classroom insight

  1. Step 1
    01

    Scope and content approval

    Hachette, GUtech, OPIS and Mappi select the subject, grade, title and pilot scope. Hachette provides approval and access to the selected content for the pilot. Mappi can move rapidly once the content scope is agreed.

  2. Step 2
    02

    Classroom launch at the start of term

    Mappi prepares the course environment and supports teacher and student onboarding at OPIS at the beginning of the school year. Mappi will travel to Oman to support implementation and ensure a strong classroom start.

  3. Step 3
    03

    4 to 6 weeks of learning and evaluation

    Students and teachers use the solution in a real classroom setting. Mappi and GUtech follow usage, engagement and feedback, then evaluate the results jointly with Hachette and OPIS.
