How It Works

More teaching, less managing

1. Create your lesson

Use CrossBraining's built-in lesson creator to share all of your lesson content with students in mere minutes.

2. Students record step videos

CrossBraining guides students through creating videos of them performing the skills that you've taught them, so you don't have to do any handholding.

These videos give you a complete and authentic picture of a student's skills while allowing students to self-assess by seeing themselves on camera.

3. Students self-assess

No one wants to make a mistake on camera, so CrossBraining lets students practice as many times as they want. This means that as students record their videos they will spot and correct mistakes, which improves skill retention and deeper learning

This means that by the time the students come to you, they've already taught themselves.

4. Students record voiceovers

Students then write and record voiceover narrations. This is multi-modal repetition (writing, reading, speaking, hearing) that is proven to improve skill retention and adapts to all learning styles.

Plus, students are using their own words to describe their learning. This is true equity.

5. You watch completed videos

Our system automatically stitches the videos together so that no one has to spend time editing videos.

Plus, CrossBraining videos are short, so you save time on assessments while keeping authenticity. Oh, and you can assess from anywhere - even your couch.

Remote? No Problem
