Help Centre
Learning Help is for families, homeschoolers, tutors, and independent learners using Echo, Spark, and Flux — create practice, assign it, and review what stuck.
For Indi families and tutors
Homeschoolers, tutors, and independent learners use Echo, Spark, and Flux so practice sticks. Parents or tutors can assign packs; learners can also start Echo Loop and create their own practice in Lab.
- 1. ModuleOpen or create a topic shelf for the household
- 2. LabParent or Learner creates Echo, Spark, or Flux (Foundry is In Testing)
- 3. PlaygroundAssigned packs under From your parent; learner-made packs under Your practice
- 4. Complete and reviewFinish the pack; Echo may offer a short Socrates retry
Recommended order
- Modules — Start here — create a Module on the class home, then build and assign activities inside it.
- Lab — Inside a Module, Lab is where you create Echo, Spark, Flux, and other activities. Practice goes to Playground; Proper assessment goes to Workshop.
- Workshop — After you publish a Proper assessment from Lab, it lives here — inside the Module’s Workshop.
- Playground — Practice shelf inside a Module — class Practice from Lab plus private student packs. Separate from Workshop assessments.
- My Pool (optional) — Save a finished Module to My Pool, then reuse packs or templates in other classes — your personal reuse shelf.

Lab apps — create inside a Module
- EchoQuick lesson-tied revision — multiple-choice packs from what you taught today, with optional learning video and a brief upskill when students miss a question.
- SparkShort-answer writing with Socrates coaching — depth in a small space, with Practice or Proper assessment and optional Oracle summaries on the gradebook.
- FluxLong-form writing with a target word count — Socrates expands or truncates toward high-quality exam answers using structure, Bloom’s, and They Say / I Say.
- FoundryFormative diagnostics that find skill gaps, then close them with short Echo/Spark practice and later Tempers — useful for OLNA preparation, not an official SCSA result.
- TraceComing soonPlanning and reflective journalling — entries, planning panels, and mentor agreements that build a student’s thinking trail over time.
- LatchComing soonMatch-up and shot-listing — drag chips into rows. Built for Media Arts storyboards, and any categorise-and-match task.
- JuryComing soonLive judging with private scores and a projected leaderboard — battle of the bands, film screenings, peer judging, or any scored showcase.
- ArcadeComing soonA fun way to practise the human–AI–human cycle — creative and critical thinking through build, judge, play, and improve.
AI coaches
- OracleThe class AI helper — turn it off for a class, lock it on assessments, and review policy alerts plus how much help students needed on Spark and Flux tasks.
- SocratesThe in-task AI coach inside Spark, Flux, and Echo — grounded in your class, syllabus, and the material you provide. Foundry also offers a staff-only Socrates preview.
