Named after the hundred-eyed watchman of Greek myth, Argus watches the education landscape: spotting new opportunities, pressure-testing the ventures we're building, and tracing every read back to the real-world signals behind it.
The evidence library: the raw signals the pipeline is watching across the education ecosystem. Every idea is built from these.
Building a course in Captivate 13, delivered through Docebo, with a bunch of embedded MP4s (1.5-5 min each, 1080p) plus quizzes and other interactivity in the same package. Not streaming through Vimeo or Wistia, actually embedded in the package itself. From asking around, it sounds like it's not really about how many videos, it's about individual file size and total package size. Most people I talked to keep videos around 80-150MB each and the whole package well under Docebo's 1GB cap. But nobody I've found has actually tested this at real scale, like 30+ videos, across different connections and machines. Just one-off tests. Has anyone actually built something like this and had it work consistently for a real, varied group of learners? Or had it fall apart even though it looked fine in your own testing? Trying to get past "it worked for me" and figure out what actually holds up once real people with real connections start using it. submitted by /u/NovaNebula73 [link] [comments]

I'm a primary school teacher (in Europe). I started using claude to simplify my workflow and helping me design and organise my lessons (+ planning). This year I started teaching religion and I have to create my own worksheets. Claude is 100 times better than OpenAI for this, but it sucks at creating images to make the worksheet more interesting for kids. Do you guys have any tips to help me create better worksheets?

We’re hiring for an internal role. Both of these candidates are SMEs and trainers, but neither have a background in instructional design. Spoiler alert - neither do I, but here we are. We’ll need to teach both of them the science of effective learning as well as design basics. I’m torn on which person would be a better fit. Candidate A has a creative eye and puts a lot of thought and effort into making training fun. But it was also a bit of style over substance and she’d need to learn how to make training effective, not just fun. Candidate B is less creative and said that it would be a bit of a challenge, but she could learn. Her approach was a lot more basic and she basically copied an activity we’ve already done. But she said that she cares more about solving the training problem over the creative piece. Who would you hire in this situation? submitted by /u/ElevatorEmergency678 [link] [comments]

Hi everyone, I’m exploring the idea of building a short-form video library for audiences who are not comfortable with English. The content would be broken into small learning nuggets, and each video could be dubbed in a selected set of languages so viewers can choose the version that works best for them. I’d love your thoughts on a few things: - What is the best AI for this, paid versions are fine as well. - What makes a multilingual video library easy to use? - How should language selection be presented so it feels simple and intuitive? - What are the best practices for dubbing short educational videos? - Are there any formats, features, or user experience ideas that work especially well for non-English speaking audiences? - What mistakes should I avoid when designing this kind of content? Any practical suggestions, examples, or lessons from your own experience would be really helpful. Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/Wolfmaster_29 [link] [comments]
Hi! I’m new to Instructional Design. I was lucky enough to land an ID role just last month after transitioning from being a Corporate Trainer. The company I’m with now relies heavily on AI specifically Claude. As a new ID, I want to build a strong foundation and not become too dependent on AI, especially when it comes to designing courses. Here, almost everything is created with the help of AI. My concern is that if I rely on AI too much, I might struggle in the future if I move to another company that doesn’t use the same tools. I don’t want to always look for AI instead of knowing how to build a course from scratch. How do you deal with this, fellow IDs? submitted by /u/ScribbleSensei [link] [comments]

As a social impact startup founder, I've had the opportunity to visit 1–2 government primary schools every week across the Bhavnagar district for the past 6–7 years. Every school has taught me something different. Some inspired me with incredible leadership. Others showed me how dedicated teachers can create meaningful learning despite limited resources. And many reminded me that a child's curiosity doesn't depend on the size of a classroom or the school's budget. These visits completely changed my perspective on public education. Today, I don't judge a school by its infrastructure alone. I notice the smiles of the students, the passion of the teachers, the involvement of the community, and the culture that the principal has built. Every school visit gives me hope that meaningful change in education doesn't always start with policy. Sometimes, it starts with one committed teacher, one visionary principal, and one supportive community. What's the most inspiring school you've ever visite
I’ve spent most of my career working in fast-paced environments. I genuinely love them. But… they’ve also been exhausting. I’m neurodivergent, and over the years I’ve realized my brain simply isn’t wired the same way. What I’ve struggled with most hasn’t been the work itself. It’s been the systems around the work. The documentation. The training. The constant assumption that everyone processes information the same way. I often find myself thinking, “Things don’t have to be this hard.” Sometimes, I simply feel like things aren’t… well… clear. Am I alone in feeling that way? If you’ve had a similar experience, I’d genuinely love to connect and exchange perspectives. I have a feeling I’m not the only one navigating this, and I’m curious to hear what has actually helped, especially when organizations adapted the way they designed their operations, documentation, or training. Thanks. submitted by /u/No_Reference1192 [link] [comments]

For those of you in instructional design, IT, or admin roles who actually decide what tools get used: What's your actual criteria before adopting a new tool? Cost? Evidence it works? Ease of integration? Student demand? What would make you say NO to something like NotebookLM even if it looked promising? Have you seen AI study tools actually improve learning outcomes? Or is it mostly hype? What's the biggest barrier to adoption right now? Teacher training? Privacy concerns? Skepticism? If you've seen tools fail after adoption — what went wrong? submitted by /u/Mother-Cry8929 [link] [comments]
Hey everyone, I'm doing some investigation and looking into NotebookLM as a subject for my research, so just curious to learn. And also, just like, anything would be helpful. For those of you using it academically: How are you actually using it? (e.g., feeding it lecture slides, dense research papers, or entire textbooks?) Do you genuinely recommend it? And what subjects does it shine in? I've heard it's decent for humanities but falls apart with math-heavy or logic-based STEM stuff – is that your experience? What are the biggest pitfalls or things I should be aware of? I know about the 50-source limit, but how often does it hallucinate or mess up citations in your actual workflow? Also, I'm really curious about alternatives. If you've ditched NotebookLM for something else, what did you switch to, and why is it actually better for your specific use case? Trying to figure out if I should invest time in this or look elsewhere. Thanks! submitted by /u/Mother-Cry8929 [link] [comments]
I've been thinking about AI tutoring less as a replacement for teachers and more as a first layer of help for students who do not already have easy access to a patient adult. On the optimistic side, a student can ask basic questions without embarrassment, repeat an explanation five times, get examples in their own language, or turn messy notes into a study plan. That feels like a real access shift, especially for students who do not have private tutors, educated parents, or quiet time with a teacher. But I am also skeptical that access to answers automatically becomes equity. The students who benefit most may still be the ones with devices, good prompts, enough motivation, stable internet, adults who check the work, and schools that help them use the tool well. Without that support, AI could become another thing that looks equal on paper but widens the gap in practice. So I am curious how people here think about it from an edtech/classroom perspective: Where does AI tutoring actually r
I have been a classroom teacher since 1999, and I have finally had enough of what I call "solutions made by engineers and accountants". To many times in to many districts a solution has been bought to do.... (insert problem here)... and guess what, it was never made with teachers in mind... How we work, what we need... etc.... So, I am posting this here to create accountability for myself, because bringing forth issues/concerns without providing solutions (or ideas for ways to improve) is nothing but complaining. So, therefore I am going to solve my problems for myself and my classroom, such as Seating Plans. This may seem trivial but over the years, I have experienced good seating plans (kids are awesome, working, etc...), make a change, and its like the world has fallen apart.

Edtech doesn't seem to drive innovation internally. In fact, what is claimed to be innovative and disruptive in edtech tends to be even larger failures. It seems like edtech that has provided value, are innovations from other fields. - Projectors (business presentations) - LMSs (information systems) - Notes like Notion, (organisational knowledge management) - ...

Preferably an LMS that offers as many of the following: -individual teacher licenses that are either free, freemium, or not incredibly expensive for a single teacher -SSO capabilities for easy access to tools like Phet, CK12, and similar sites/apps. -content repository capabilities OR integrations that allows one to connect your content easily -not incredibly difficult for students to use I have been using google classroom but I only find it to be useful for communicating through the stream, posting content digitally, and for providing resources for students.

Hello! I am an American who recently moved back to Valencia, Spain to join my husband. I now have a residency permit here, and I speak both English and Spanish. I have been teaching in the United States and abroad since 2018, including teaching English in Spain for three years. With my recent move back to Spain, I'm trying to figure out what my next career move will be. I have a bachelor's in Education and a master's in Instructional Design. Additionally, I've developed a strong interest in digital marketing, so I'm currently taking the Google Digital Marketing certification course. While I do love teaching, I'm ready to expand my professional experience outside the classroom and transition into other roles, such as higher education, or potentially marketing. When I first moved to Spain in 2020, I moved here on my own, and I loved every moment of that experience. Because of that, I've also been considering a career in study abroad advising. I appreciate any responses! submitted by /u/P

I’m exposing my experience with Jobaaj Placement Program. They promise students that they will get a job within 3 months, otherwise they offer a money-back guarantee. But the reality and their terms & conditions tell a very different story. Their policy says that if a student attends 2 interviews and fails to clear them, they are no longer eligible for a refund. Now here’s the issue: The first few companies they arrange interviews with often have extremely limited openings — for example, 2 openings with 100+ students being interviewed. Obviously, most students will get rejected. After just 2 failed interviews, the refund clause becomes invalid. And after those 2 interviews, in my experience, they barely care about your profile anymore. Communication becomes poor, support slows down, and there is little genuine effort to help students get placed. This creates a system where students lose both: - the placement promise - and the refund eligibility It genuinely feels like the process is
We brought in someone from the outside to optimize our video workflows. I'm stunned at what an expert has been able to accomplish.

Hello, so I recently started a position as an instructional designer and honestly I feel very out of my depth when it comes to creating storyboards on dense material. Storyline and Rise are my jam and definitely have a lot of fun and interest in using the software, and I have a graphic design background so creating assets is not a problem for me. But storyboarding has become this insurmountable task and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on creating learning material from documents that it’s very difficult to make heads or tails of. The thing about working with SMEs is I don’t even know where to start the conversation with them. ”What do we want the learner to know by the end of the course?” is a start but then it comes to a halt and I get stuck. I‘ve had a very “fake it til you make it” attitude and the lessons I create people like, but those storyboards were created for me. Making storyboards from scratch is very difficult for me. Any advice appreciated. Thank you! submitted by

Hi everyone, I’ve been working in IT for several years, most recently as a Service Desk Analyst for a regional healthcare system supporting roughly 1,500 end users across hospitals and outpatient clinics. Before healthcare, I worked in K–12 education IT supporting staff and students, managing Chromebooks, Google Workspace, inventory, and endpoint support. Over the past year, I’ve realized that while I’ve gained a lot of valuable experience in healthcare IT, my long-term goal is to get back into education—specifically EdTech. I really enjoy technology that helps educators and students rather than working in a constantly reactive hospital environment. Some of my experience includes: - IT support for K–12 schools and healthcare organizations - Google Workspace administration - Device lifecycle management and endpoint support - Citrix, VPN, Active Directory, Microsoft 365 - Ticketing systems and documentation - Cross-functional support for software rollouts and end-user training I’ve been
Something I keep running into in learning design: for a genuinely hard text, the text itself is the worst possible starting point. A learner with no background spends almost all their effort decoding the prose and has little left for actually understanding the idea. We treat reading comprehension and concept comprehension as the same skill, but for novices they really aren't. I've been experimenting with flipping the order. Before someone reads a dense paper or a long handout, give them a visual, narrative version first (in my case a literal manga retelling: the concept acted out in panels), then send them to the original. Anecdotally the original read gets much faster and retention goes up, because the learner already holds the structure and is now just attaching detail to it. It lines up with the old worked-example and dual-coding research, just pushed further into full narrative. The part most relevant to this sub is adaptivity. The version I built makes every concept expandable: a

Hey guys, I have been visiting this sub for a few months and I've noticed a pattern every time someone posts a tool they built for teachers, the "Iconic comment" is "AI slop." Every time someone shares a classroom tech idea, teachers pile on with negativity. But where is that same energy when Canvas got hacked twice by the same group, exposing 275 million users across 8,800+ institutions including private messages between students and teachers? The entry point was a free tier account with zero proper security. They initially ignored the ransom demand, got hacked again and then quietly paid up. That's corporate negligence on a massive scale. Crickets. Yes I get it that teachers are exhausted and their districts make terrible tech decisions like buying bloated or hyped platforms with zero teacher input, then mandating everyone use them. That frustration is real and valid but the anger is being aimed at the wrong people. An indie developer posting a free classroom tool didn't lock you int
I have spent a long time in L&D, most recently as a CLO, before that in learning roles at a few large organisations. I wanted to share something with this group. We put real effort into hiring the right people. Then performance is still a problem, and the usual reaction is to blame the people or throw more training at it. I am less and less convinced that is where the issue sits. In most places I have worked, the talent was already in the building. What was missing was the conditions for them to perform: the time to practice, the manager actually involved, work designed so they could do the job well. I keep landing on the gap between knowing and doing. We are good at handing people content. We are not nearly as good at building the conditions where they get to apply it and improve. To be upfront, the reason this is on my mind is I am doing a webinar on it at the end of the month with Laura Overton, who has spent around 20 years researching what good performing L&D teams do differently.

Hey everyone, I am currently going into my fourth year as an English Education major, and I have never regretted anything more in my life. I've always wanted to become a teacher, but after my first semester in college I was quick to realize I was too mentally ill to handle it. I ended up attempting to commit suicide, and it obviously did not work. I felt like a failure. Everyone pressured me to keep going and that I will like it eventually, etc etc. So I did. I didn't want to let anyone down like I did before. Now I'm in Phase II, going to start the semester before student teaching, and I can't do it. I can't handle the schedule or stress of teaching. I can't afford to change majors and restart. I haven't been able to work in three years due to the immense workload on top of my already failing mental health. Now, I have hospital bills and student loans. It feels like the only thing left to do is attempt again and pray it works this time. I'm scared. It feels like my life has fallen apa

Instead, the text reads, she has defended the cancellation of several research contracts and discontinued grants for programs like community schools. 3. Breach of public trust Again focusing on funding, the resolution states that the adm
Edit: ND = neurodivergent masking= suppressing needs in order to be more in productive or on the clock in a classroom. I've seen a lot of non-compliance referrals this year in a few districts. Particularly for autistic and other ND children whose own bodies and minds are just done. (And by the way, the brain is also a part of the body as much as many admins seem to like to act like the two are separate.) It's interesting too because often they will have a BIP that says that the child can ask for a break to be proactive. Then the adult will delay the break Or not believe the kid that they do in fact need a break. Then the kid will have a meltdown or a behavior. If you don't leak out some form of dopamine, sensory input/reduction, or easy success for your ND kids, their bodies are going to go on strike. Plain and simple. It's not personal. They aren't being belligerent and disobedient. They just have nothing left to give. submitted by /u/PurplesunsetBluelips [link] [comments]
