How Recess works

Choose a session.
Make it part of your class.

We work with professionals on the content and activities. Teachers decide when to use them and how much time their class needs.

  1. Choose a topic for your class.

    Find a session that connects with what students are learning. Preview the content and resources before bringing it into class.

  2. Watch, pause and take part.

    Short recorded videos introduce the ideas. Activities give students a way to apply them. Pause for discussion or replay an explanation whenever it helps.

  3. Reflect and build on the learning.

    Students reflect on what they understood and keep a guide or project kit. Teachers use the class summary to plan what to revisit.

For schools & learning communities

Bring professionals
into your classroom.

We work with professionals to turn their experience into clear explanations, practical activities and time to reflect. Each session connects school subjects with situations students may encounter in life and work.

  • Ready to use in class. Expert explanations, activities and resources are brought together in one session.
  • Your timetable, your pace. Run a session in one class or across several. Pause and replay as needed.
  • Simple student access. A teacher leads the class. Students use a code to take part, without personal accounts.

For students

Learn, take part and reflect.

Students learn from a professional’s recorded explanations, apply ideas in activities and reflect on what they understand. A guide or project kit helps them revisit the learning after the session.

For your school

Useful insight for the next class.

A class summary brings together the topics, activity results and student reflections. Teachers can use it to plan what to revisit, continue the discussion or share the learning with families.

Your class’s summary is private to your school.

Inside a session

Learn from a professional.
Take part as a class.

Recorded expert videos. Hear how a professional approaches real situations, with explanations you can revisit.

Interactive activities. Make a choice, test an idea or solve a challenge, then compare the results.

Practical resources. Use a guide or project kit to build on the session, individually or in a group.

For experts

Share what you know.
Help students see what’s possible.

Turn your experience into a session teachers can use throughout the school year. Record it once, reach more classes over time and earn through an agreed share of subscription revenue.

Create with us

Your expertise, shaped for learning.

Bring a subject you know well. We work with you on clear explanations, recording, activities and a resource students can keep.

Make it reusable

Your recorded session can be used by different teachers and classes, with you credited as its contributor. No need to present it again each time a school takes part.

Stay informed

Combined participation and reflection reports help you understand what students found useful and where the content could be clearer, without sharing individual student responses.

A few useful answers

Good to know.

Are sessions live or on demand?

On demand. Sessions combine recorded videos from a professional with interactive activities and reflections. A teacher chooses when to run a session and can pause, revisit a section or continue in another class. There is no live broadcast to schedule.

Who can join?

School students take part through an approved school or learning institution, with a teacher or authorised adult supervising. Students use a class code, without creating personal accounts. We confirm suitable topics and participation requirements with each school. You can find the age and supervision requirements in our learner-safety policy. Read our learner-safety approach.

How does our school get started?

Request pilot access and we’ll contact you to confirm your school’s needs, available content and setup. Access is free during the pilot. We’ll explain any future subscription before you decide whether to continue; you won’t be automatically charged.

What does the school subscription include?

The planned subscription is USD $990 per school per year, covering one campus. All its teachers and students can use the available session library as often as they need, including activities, student resources and class learning summaries. There are no per-student or per-session charges. Access is currently free during the pilot.

How do experts contribute and get paid?

We work with professionals to turn their knowledge into a recorded session, activities and a useful student resource. Contributors can earn a share of subscription revenue under an agreement made before production. Payment, licensing and any pilot contribution are agreed individually; earnings are not guaranteed.

What do the learning summaries show?

Schools receive their own class’s activity results and reflections to help teachers decide what to revisit. Experts can receive combined participation and feedback reports, without student identities or individual responses. Reflections capture what students say they understood, not a measure of long-term learning.
