Teaching
The Professor Decides What the Course Knows
Professors choose what each course draws on, see where students struggle, and build assignments from their own materials.
Materials
The Course Draws Only on What the Professor Releases
Documents, slides, spreadsheets, and recordings go up once. For each one, the professor decides whether it is used for answers and whether students may download it.
-
Used for Answers
Only the materials a professor marks are drawn on when students ask.
-
Shared or Held Back
Students may open a file only when the professor shares it.
-
Study Guides Prepared Ahead
A professor can prepare a study guide for the class from any material.
Insights
What Students Ask, and What They Find Hard
Questions by day, how many students are asking, and a summary of where the class is struggling. No question carries a name.
Assignments
Drafted From the Materials, Reviewed by the Professor
The professor picks the materials and the levels of Bloom's taxonomy to target. The assignment arrives as a draft, and nothing reaches students until the professor publishes it.
-
Multiple Choice to Projects
Multiple choice, short answer, essay, or project, taken online or handed in.
-
Graded Against a Rubric
Written answers earn partial credit and feedback, and essays and projects are graded against a rubric.
-
Results When Released
Students see results when the professor releases them, and the professor gets class statistics.
