Have you ever thought about doing anything like this? Or thought about doing any kind of interactive learning on the Crash Course site? (Sorry for the obnoxiously long thread—EdTech sparks something annoying in me, evidently!)

Obviously Classroom is an enterprise product and designed to work with real-life classes rather than something totally open like Masterclass or Skillshare, but I just think there’s opportunity there somewhere.

It wasn’t hugely time consuming to create but the end result was a genuinely brilliant teaching resource. I can imagine the same would be true of other Crash Course series.

The videos themselves are dense and informative, and with Classroom I was able to intersperse related videos and film clips in a pre-determined order for my students, and I was able to add multiple quiz questions to each video.

I teach film and last year I put together an entire independent study course on Classroom using Crash Course’s film course and it made an AMAZING resource.

Do you have a preference either way on which you’d rather we use? Congratulations by the way! 😁

This seems to be happening everywhere. I’ve never understood why education of all things is creating such hostile work environments. Even in FE I’ve only ever seen the higher ups protect bullies—even when their behaviour has stretched into outright discrimination and harassment. So incredibly sad.

Why do I picture you at the keyboard soothing the baby with a live rendition of assorted lullabies but with chill 80s synths and some relaxing drum patterns. In fact, I’ll listen to that as a grown ass adult.

The entire energy cycle. I truly believe the entire conversation around energy would be different if people had a more grounded understanding of how we generate and store energy and how a wind turbine, for example, interacts with the grid and their own house.

I raise you: making a decision and being suddenly hit with an intense grief about not doing the other thing EVEN THOUGH YOU WANT TO DO THIS THING
