FOR ONLINE SCHOOLS
Extra explanations alongside your online teaching
Online teaching can combine scheduled lessons with independent preparation and revision. dorKk’s pre-recorded CAPS-aligned videos can provide another explanation for a topic or a route back to material a learner needs to revisit. Online schools can explore the English and Afrikaans catalogue and discuss how licensed content could support their existing programme.
A LITTLE EXTRA SUPPORT
How dorKk can help
Support preparation and catch-up
Identify explanations that fit a forthcoming lesson or help a learner revisit an earlier topic. Give learners a specific question to consider, rather than a long list of videos. Teachers can use that question to guide discussion in the next scheduled session.
Keep teaching and feedback connected
Pair video support with your own practice tasks and teacher feedback. A learner who can follow a worked example may still need help applying the method independently. Use follow-up questions to identify what has clicked and where your teaching should focus next.
Fit content to your learning environment
Start by sharing your platform, grade and subject needs with dorKk. Confirm what content is available, how learners would access it and what institutional terms apply. Do not assume the public catalogue or a personal account grants school-wide embedding rights.
A practical way to get started
Choose one teaching unit where learners would benefit from an additional explanation.
Review catalogue fit and discuss licensed access with dorKk.
Pilot the agreed learner journey, including teacher follow-up and technical access checks.
PUT IT INTO PRACTICE
Use a worked explanation to prepare a discussion
A Grade 11 Physical Sciences teacher could ask learners to predict what happens when the net force on an object changes. The public Newton’s second law explanation gives a worked example and practice solution to support a subsequent teacher-led discussion.

Does dorKk offer the online school itself?
No. dorKk provides supplementary pre-recorded lesson content. Your school continues to deliver teaching, learner support and assessment.
Can we use content in both English and Afrikaans?
Both language catalogues are available for review. Their subject and lesson inventories differ; confirm the content needed for your programme rather than assuming every lesson has an equivalent translation.
Where should we start with platform integration?
Use the integration overview, prepare your platform and cohort requirements, and contact dorKk to discuss compatibility, licensing and a limited pilot.
