How it works

ezSchool, one screen at a time

33 short videos, 22 minutes in all. Each one shows one screen and one job, on the version schools use today.

There are three series, one for each person who uses the system. Start with the first few in your own series: they are the day-one set. Every video ends on three lines to remember, written out under it as well. The subtitles are part of the picture, so the videos work with the sound off.

The 8 grey lines are videos still being made. They appear here in a coming update.
