How it works

Pick a prompt

Choose a prompt for Research, Instructional Design, or Educational Technology. Or, just talk with Eddie about your own work.

Step by step

Eddie asks a question and waits for your answer. When Eddie asks for a file, you attach a PDF, a spreadsheet, or a text file.

Follow the guide

A pacing guide shows you where you are in the process. Email yourself the entire conversation when you're finished.
