Helping homeschoolers develop social skills and expand their horizons with a virtual world

SAN MATEO, Calif., June 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Allschool, an innovative online education platform, is set to introduce its one-stop learning solution for homeschoolers at the Great Homeschool Convention that is scheduled to run from June 16th through 18th in California. As one of the most popular homeschooling events of the year in North America, this convention will see the company bringing its student-centered online education platform to parents seeking a flexible and interactive e-learning service.

The diverse selection of globally 12-themed courses and more allows homeschoolers to discover intriguing facts about different nations and broaden their minds. At the same time, using Allschool’s self-developed class tool “speak in the center of the stage” and other interactive features, homeschoolers can make friends from all over the world without stepping out of their house. They can also communicate freely in a relaxed environment and improve their social and emotional skills.

Allschool’s one-stop solution is designed to allow parents to take full advantage of the flexibility that homeschool offers while giving learners access to premium online lessons. A myriad of course options to supplement the standard curricula are offered which gives homeschoolers the freedom to individualize the curriculum structure. Besides, all the courses are delivered by accredited and experienced teachers with diverse educational and professional backgrounds.

“We are thrilled to unveil our new home education solution “Homeschool Package” at this long-anticipated event that attracts countless leading online education providers and homeschool families across the continent each year. It is built upon our excellent educational resources and extensive experience in creating a fun and interactive online learning platform to give kids an opportunity to experience the world’s culture by making friends with students worldwide. The solution features 12 classes designed and delivered by experienced homeschool teachers to fit different children’s learning styles, skill levels, and interests, enabling them to experience a new approach to homeschooling learning,” said Jacob Kantor, the US regional business development manager of Allschool, making an announcement at Great Homeschool Convention.

The move comes as more US families start opting for homeschooling as a solution to fill the gaps in their children’s education due to the pandemic. The National Home Education Research Institute has recorded a significant increase in the number of families shifting to homeschooling and estimates the figure continues to rise at the rate of 2%-8% each year.

With its flexible learning environment, online Allschool programs not only allow students to select desired subjects to achieve their unique goals but also empower them to learn at any time, any place with online, self-paced courses.

In an interview with Ms. Homa, an Allschool homeschool teacher who has also worked as an English, Art, and History teacher in a public school for 18 years, she said, “it is important for homeschool children to have peer discussion and have access to different opinions around the world. The greater diversity of the online education platform can strengthen their social connections or skills.”

“We understand that homeschool parents are constantly looking for a new way that let their children better interact with other students. With this in mind, Allschool strives to create a space where learners from all over the world can come together to find common topics and interests, make friends and have fun,” said Jack Shan, Allschool Co-Founder.

Paving the way for a new industrial futureThe new facility is a joint venture between PIF and Hyundai Motor CompanyThe plant will manufacture internal combustion engine and electric vehicles, with an annual production target of 50,000 vehicles to supply Saudi Arabia

KING ABDULLAH ECONOMIC CITY, Saudi Arabia, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Middle East (HMMME), a joint venture between PIF and Hyundai Motor Company, today hosted its groundbreaking ceremony in the recently announced King Salman Automotive Cluster within King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC). The ceremony is a significant milestone that marks another step in the development of the automotive industry in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

PIF owns a 70% stake in HMMME, with Hyundai holding the remaining 30%. The manufacturing plant, Hyundai’s first facility in the Middle East, will roll out its first vehicle by the fourth quarter of 2026 and targets an annual production of 50,000 vehicles. This will include both internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric vehicles (EV).

Yazeed A. Alhumied, Deputy Governor and Head of MENA Investments at PIF, said: “This groundbreaking is a significant milestone for PIF as it further strengthens the automotive industry in Saudi Arabia. PIF will continue to enable and accelerate the growth of Saudi Arabia’s automotive ecosystem through partnerships. This joint venture underscores PIF’s commitment to build local capabilities, attract cutting-edge technology, and create highly skilled jobs in Saudi Arabia’s automotive and mobility sector.”

Jaehoon Chang, Hyundai Motor Group Vice Chair said, “Today’s groundbreaking marks the beginning of a new chapter for both the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Hyundai Motor Company, as we lay the foundation for a new era of future mobility and technological innovation.

The localization of Hyundai’s vehicles will accelerate the growth of Saudi Arabia’s automotive and mobility ecosystem and pave the way for a new industrial future.

This partnership is one in a series of PIF initiatives establishing Saudi Arabia as a global automotive player. Together, these initiatives are driving transformation in the sector, and boosting domestic manufacturing capabilities, infrastructure, and supply chains.

BREAKING BARRIERS: HOW TIM WHITE IS REDEFINING INTERNATIONAL RACE ENGINEERING FROM NEW ZEALAND

Published

on

By

CROMWELL, New Zealand, May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In a sport where split-second decisions define success, Tim White is proving that world-class race engineering knows no borders. Operating from a small New Zealand town, White has established himself as a leading figure in Ferrari’s GT programs, leveraging cutting-edge remote engineering techniques to optimize performance in global endurance racing.

Founder of Elite Race Engineering, White serves as a Performance and Simulation Engineer, where he develops advanced modeling techniques and refines real-time data processing to enhance on-track performance. His use of innovative sensors, aerodynamic tuning, and sophisticated simulation tools has strengthened the team’s technical capabilities, making him a key player in Ferrari’s GT3 programs. Working remotely with Orlando-based Ferrari racing team Triarsi Competizione, White integrates advanced modeling, sensor technology, and data-driven insights to refine the Ferrari 296 GT3. Despite being based in New Zealand, his ability to analyze massive amounts of real-time race data and communicate findings instantly has made him an invaluable asset to teams in IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and GT World Challenge Asia.

“Motorsport has always been seen as a hands-on, in-person industry, but technology is changing that,” says White. “From New Zealand, I can help optimize race cars competing on the other side of the world in real-time. Distance isn’t a limitation— it’s just another problem to engineer a solution for.” White’s journey began with an automotive mechanics apprenticeship, where he built and maintained race cars for circuit, rally, and hill climb competitions. A pivotal piece of advice from a Kiwi Formula 1 veteran led him to pursue a mechanical engineering degree, despite having no academic record from school. After years of perseverance, he earned a First-Class Honours degree and secured direct entry into a PhD program before pivoting back to motorsport.

His expertise in vehicle dynamics, simulation, and tire modeling took him around the world—working in IMSA, WEC, BTCC, and V8 Supercars, as well as developing software for race strategy and data management. When the COVID-19 pandemic halted racing, White turned to education, writing and presenting online courses on data analysis and race engineering before launching his own consulting business.

With IMSA’s 2025 torque sensor regulations set to revolutionize its GTD-class racing, White’s expertise in powertrain performance and data analysis ensures that Ferrari remains ahead of the curve. His journey—from building homegrown race cars to shaping the future of GT engineering—proves that innovation isn’t about location, but vision.
