Case Study
Instructional Videofor School Managers
A modular video series for new school managers learning ClassIn from day one.
01Context
New managers were expected to run lesson scheduling, teacher accounts, and course materials in ClassIn LMS, but the training lived in scattered PDFs on Google Drive. Open one file for scheduling, another for accounts, and you still missed steps.
I built a series of short instructional videos and published them in our internal learning hub. Each video covers one task or flow, so someone on their first week can watch only what they need instead of sitting through one long tutorial.
Audience
New school managers in their first weeks on the job. People who are still learning how the platform works and need clear, bite-sized guidance on everyday ClassIn tasks.
Challenge
Replace static PDFs with training that fits how new hires actually learn: small chunks, easy to find, and simple to update when the product changes.
02Process
- 01
Problem
Onboarding relied on disconnected PDFs on Google Drive. New managers had to hunt across files, which slowed their first weeks and made it hard to follow a clear sequence.
- 02
Content
I mapped the tasks new managers hit first, then scripted and storyboarded each video as its own module. One feature or workflow per video, in the order they would actually use them.
- 03
Production
I built slides in Keynote, recorded and edited in Premiere Pro, created graphics in Illustrator, and used ElevenLabs for narration. I handled the full pipeline myself from script to final export.
- 04
Publishing
I organized the series in our internal learning hub so each lesson sits in one place with the rest of manager onboarding. New hires land in the hub and work through videos task by task.
03Highlights
Series, not one long file
The training is a set of short videos in our internal learning hub, not a single three-hour walkthrough. New managers open the lesson that matches the task in front of them.
Built to update fast
When ClassIn changes, I redo only the affected videos. The modular structure means a UI update in one area does not force a full re-record of the whole series.
Narration via ElevenLabs
ElevenLabs voice-over keeps tone consistent across the series and makes it straightforward to regenerate audio for a single module when the script changes.

05Result
New managers now have a video library in the internal learning hub they can dip into from day one. Onboarding does not start with "which PDF do I open?" It starts with the right short lesson for the task at hand.
