The grid was much easier for students to access materials, and for teachers it allowed us to easily find what we needed. This layout feels designed by AI and is nowhere near intuitive. My entire department is incredibly disappointed especially after piloting and approving the World History 1200 course in our district. Not to mention its harder to see what has changed.

Hayden George I understand your feelings because it took me some time and effort to learn how to navigate the new layout. That said, the old layout was overwhelming, with multiple options—some of which were repetitive. What I did with my teacher colleague was keep the materials and activities from the old layout that were still useful and select the ones we wanted to keep (the old layout is still accesible).
What I found extremely helpful are the purposeful ad hoc activities in each unit. I teach Big History, and my students previously struggled to grasp some concepts because I had to lecture and create my own activities. Now, I’ve streamlined the process and incorporated pertinent activities that help students check for understanding. Overall, this approach has made teaching more efficient and learning more engaging for my students. I hope you will give it a try.
