The lesson.
The theory for the sub-strand, written for the grade it belongs to: the explanation, the worked examples, the vocabulary a learner needs before they touch anything else.

Product features
One CBE workflow from strand planning to classroom follow-up.
Keybaki connects lessons, practice activities, competency assessments and the recommendations that follow — all on the same CBE-aligned curriculum map.
Learn, Practise, Test — get adaptive recommendations for your weak areas.
The activity.
Practice built for what was just taught — questions, investigations and practicals a learner works through to turn the reading into a skill.

The competency assessment.
A CEA closes the sub-strand and scores the competency itself, not a percentage — where the learner is strong, where the gap is, and how wide it is.
Auto-markedCompetency-levelPartial credit
The recommendation engine.
The result routes the learner back into the library: the lessons and activities that address the weak competency first, ranked by what will move it most.

CBE Core Competencies
The seven competencies, mapped to what we actually do.
Every Kenyan teacher knows the seven CBE Core Competencies. Most edtech ignores them or pastes them as buzzwords. Here is exactly how each surface of Keybaki contributes to each competency — the same audit story we hand to a head of department on day one.
Communication and Collaboration
Group work that survives the WhatsApp group.
Lessons schedule pair and small-group activities. The CEA bank includes oral, written and presentation items. Class feed lets students share drafts back to the teacher — without exposing them to the public web.
Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
Open-ended prompts, not multiple-choice mush.
Every lesson opens with a guiding question and closes with a competency assessment. CEAs include 'show-your-working' items where partial credit lands against the strand the child got partially right.
Imagination and Creativity
Engage prompts that start with a real scene.
Every lesson opens with a hook anchored in Kenyan life — a Gikomba market scene, a matatu fare puzzle, a Mau Forest field study. Students discuss the prompt before they touch the maths.
Citizenship
Kenyan values, mapped to each strand.
Every lesson declares the values it foregrounds — Responsibility, Integrity, Unity, Patriotism, Peace, Respect, Social Justice. Term reports roll these up for the head of school.
Digital Literacy
Practising the thing while you're learning it.
Students log in. Students answer CEAs on the device. Students see their own strand history. Parents see term reports on the same device. The whole product is a digital-literacy exercise that happens to teach maths.
Learning to Learn
Mastery dashboards, not gold stars.
Each child's profile shows which strands are strong, which are weak, and which are recovering. The weekly briefing names one strand to focus on — and explains why.
Self-Efficacy
Streaks that don't shame.
No 'you missed a day' notifications. No daily streak guilt. Just a weekly briefing that says: here's the strand, here's the 20-minute review, here's what changed since last week.
Every CEA, every lesson, every term report cites the competency it advances. Auditable from a single sub-strand to a national report.
