In this video, I break down my simple 3-step formula for creating Outschool self-paced classes that don’t just sit there—they actually get students clicking, thinking, and finishing. I walk you through how I design a lesson so it feels interactive (not like a worksheet packet), and how I build in engagement from the very first slide. The goal is always the same: keep students excited without you spending hours reinventing the wheel every time you publish a new class. I share the essential elements I use to build, diversify, and gamify self-paced lessons using tools like Google Slides and Nearpod—especially drag-and-drop activities that make learning feel like a game. I also talk about mixing in interactive slides, mini challenges, and review-game style moments so the class has variety and momentum. If you want a plug-and-play starting point, I included my free lesson plan template, and if you want to go deeper on building drag-and-drop and board game style activities, I invite you to my Slides That Shine live workshop.
