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. Signed in? Use Walk-through under Account in the sidebar for a live tour of Learner → Subject → Module → Lab. Personal Interests is already under each learner.
For Indi families and tutors
Homeschoolers, tutors, and independent learners use Echo, Spark, and Flux so practice sticks. Educators can assign packs; learners can also start Super-Loop, create their own practice in Lab, and fill a Personal Interests shelf with topics they choose.

Lab tools — 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 a later Recheck — literacy and numeracy practice, not an official exam 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 drafting chat for educators. Open it while you write an Echo, Spark, or Flux task. Learners do not have Oracle — Socrates is the coach while they sit the work.
- SocratesThe in-task AI coach inside Spark, Flux, and Echo — grounded in your class, year group, and the material you provide. Foundry also offers a staff-only Socrates preview.
