1 min 55 Rooms Creating a room In this first tutorial we create a classroom in under two minutes. It is the starting point of every session. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 13 Rooms Setting up your room Your room exists. Let us now look at who may come in, and which tools your learners will find there. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 14 Rooms The card's menu Every room has a discreet menu, at the top right of its card. It holds ten actions, and that is where the live view of your session lives. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 52 Quizzes and questions Creating a quiz The quiz is the most used tool on the platform. Let us see how to create one, and how to write its questions. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 47 Quizzes and questions Running a quiz Your quiz exists. There are four ways of playing it, and each one serves a different moment of your session. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 56 Teaching content Flashcards Flashcards are two-sided cards: an idea on one side, its definition on the other. Your learners revise at their own pace, in class or at home. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 09 Teaching content The branching scenario The branching scenario puts the learner in a situation. They read a case, they choose, and they discover the consequence of their choice. Every decision opens a different continuation. Watch the tutorial → 4 min 21 Teaching content Presentations You already have your course materials as PDFs. EduTools turns them into driven presentations: you turn the pages, and every learner in the room automatically follows the one you are showing. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 58 Live facilitation The whiteboard The whiteboard is the trainer's chalk: you draw a diagram, you circle, you connect. Two things make it more than a flip chart: you can export it as a PDF, and you can let your learners draw on it with you. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 44 Teaching content The interactive video A video watched passively is forgotten. Here the video stops on its own at moments you choose, asks a question, and only resumes once the answer is given. Afterwards you get back who watched what, and who understood. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 03 Teaching content The guided course A guided course is your presentation, with the reading interrupted at points you choose to ask a checking question. The learner moves at their own pace, alone, and only goes on once they have answered. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 02 Teaching content Sequences Some things cannot be checked with a question: a working method, the steps of a procedure, the lines of a program. There, what matters is not knowing the items, it is knowing what order they go in. That is what a sequence does. Watch the tutorial → 3 min 46 Teaching content The code editor Here is the tool that needs the most explaining, because it has two sides. On the trainer's side, you write code that the whole room sees live. On the learner's side, people follow you at first without being able to touch anything, then, when you decide, each one gets their own copy and starts writing. And it all runs in the browser. Watch the tutorial → 4 min 54 Live facilitation The sticky-note wall The sticky-note wall is the room's flip chart: everyone sticks up what they have to say, and everyone sees it live. It collects questions, or holds bits of code that your trainees pick up with one click. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 52 Live facilitation The kanban A kanban is a board where every task is a card and every column a stage. You move it by hand, and everyone sees progress at the same time. In training it mostly serves group projects and practical work spread over several sessions. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 15 Live facilitation The mind map A mind map serves to show how things connect, rather than to list them. One idea in the centre, branches around it, sub-ideas at the ends. It is the tool for end-of-module summaries, and for plans built with the group. Watch the tutorial → 1 min 55 Live facilitation The word cloud The word cloud puts a question to the room and shows the answers live: the more often a word comes back, the bigger it grows. It is the tool for icebreakers and end-of-session reviews - everyone answers, not just the three who raise a hand. Watch the tutorial → 1 min 54 Live facilitation The wheel of fortune Picking someone at random changes the mood of a room: nobody can hide, and nobody can blame you for choosing. The wheel does that, large, on screen - and it also serves to draw a topic, an order of play or a pair. Watch the tutorial → 1 min 49 Live facilitation Learner questions In any room there are the questions people ask, and the ones they don't dare ask. The Questions module settles that: everyone writes their own, the others vote for the ones they were wondering about too, and you answer in the order that serves the most people. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 04 Live facilitation The arcade The arcade takes a quiz you have already written and turns it into a game. The wrong answers come down from the top of the screen, and you have to shoot the right one. It is the same content as an ordinary quiz - but people play it again, and that is the whole point. Watch the tutorial → 2 min 15 Attendance and compliance Attendance The attendance sheet is the document you will be asked for, and it is often the one that is missing. Here it is signed on the trainees' phones, half-day by half-day, and it comes out as a PDF ready to file. Watch the tutorial → 1 min 57 Attendance and compliance Satisfaction The satisfaction survey is the other expected document - and above all the only way of knowing what worked. EduTools has it filled in at the end of the session, while people are still there, and works out the results on its own. Watch the tutorial → 1 min 46 Teaching content The pathway A pathway is a route: your activities placed end to end, to be done in order, independently. The learner opens a single link and moves from step to step, and you see where each one stands. Watch the tutorial →
