Interesting model. I like the thought of trying to align student and instructor motivations. Getting paid for engagement is a great way to do that.
I wonder, though, if it puts pressure on the difficulty of the tasks? Can instructors game this system (if they wanted to, as I'm sure most don't) by the types of tasks they assign, thereby potentially impacting the quality of your content?
- silverlake 14y agoSorry, that whole bit about paying instructors is just for DevelopMentor's paid content. We review all our content and instructors to ensure high quality. We are obsessed with this problem of retention and completion. Our partners can put whatever they want in our system. So far our partners are providing free classes to train their customers on new products and features. If a customer learns all the features in your product, it becomes stickier (hopefully).
