Big news from Subject…in June 2025 we’re launching Subject AI, our new AI-powered operating system ?? Meet Spark. It’s a game-changer: we’re going from teacher’s assistant to teacher’s command center. Subject AI is our fourth product, joining our premium courseware, multilingual courses, and Teacher of Record SKUs. It’s the next step in our vision to lead the digital learning industry in content and data solutions. We aim to be the Netflix of Education (for students), and the operating system for teachers. Designed with teachers in mind, Subject AI streamlines critical workflows through an intuitive interface, giving educators more time to focus on what matters most: building strong relationships with students. Here’s how Subject AI will transform how teachers teach work and students learn: ? Simplified workflows: Subject AI takes the most critical tasks - like grading, feedback, lesson planning, professional development, and in-school communication - and makes them seamless and intuitive. ? Always accessible: Our goal is to be in every teacher’s pocket. We want teachers to have access to the best tool wherever and whenever they need it, and that’s what Subject AI brings to the table. ? Flexible for districts: Districts have the option to opt in or out of Subject AI, giving them control over how our platform integrates into their ecosystem. ? Improved learning experiences: Subject AI’s new, optimized learning experience brings students a learning experience that truly resonates with them. Think: all kinds of new and engaging assignment types, such as audio conversations, video assessments, and multimedia interactions. ? Teacher support: Subject AI acts as a helping hand to teachers, providing predictive insights and support so that they can focus more on teaching and less on administrative tasks. I’m so excited about this milestone for Subject. With Subject AI, we’re moving beyond just providing another education tool - we’re giving teachers a full suite of educational tools, all powered by an AI-enabled operating system. Subject AI will fully launch in June 2025. We’ll collect continuous feedback from educators as they try out different tools within the platform, so we can continually refine it. I can’t wait to hear from our educators about how Subject AI helps them do what we all love most: give students more and more opportunities to learn and grow.?

If you’re going to build the Netflix of Education, why not have your own version of Netflix Is A Joke Fest? That’s exactly what our first internal conference at Subject felt like to me: a fun week of dynamic discussions on video-first learning that we designed to be as engaging as the best entertainment events. So I think we’re on the right track! A huge and heartfelt thank you to our incredible speakers who made our first conference truly unforgettable! It was an honor to hear from remarkable leaders and our advisory board, who have not only shaped industries but also believe in our mission to transform education: Fernando Szew, Oscar Munoz, Fidel Vargas, Brandon Copeland, Jaime De La Torre, Samantha Skubal, Nicole Howard, Ed.D., Kathi Felder-Guerrero This is just the beginning! Check out the recap video for some of the best moments from the event—and get ready, because next year’s conference is going to be even bigger and better.?

Leopoldo Perez, Associate Superintendent of Instructional Services?at SHASTA UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT, never planned to become an educator. He started his career in biotech, where he thought he had found his lane. But everything changed when he led a biology lab while in grad school, and he discovered a passion for teaching. And not just teaching…bringing out the best in students. As he explains in this week’s episode of On The Subject, one of the pivotal moments in his early teaching career came when he taught a special education class. At first, he assumed the students might struggle with traditional science concepts. But as he introduced hands-on, project-based learning, he saw something remarkable: Every student was exceeding traditional expectations of their capabilities. Seeing how much these students had to give, he removed the typical academic boundaries and allowed students to explore at their own pace. He realized that it’s an educator’s job to build systems that fit students - not fit students into systems. Years later, some of these former students returned to thank him for his efforts. Clearly, he had made a difference in their lives. Leo is a champion for Career Technical Education (CTE), project-based learning, and the role of AI in keeping public schools relevant - and he’s also proof that education needs adaptable, forward-thinking leaders. It was an honor to host him on On The Subject. Take a listen to Leo’s episode below ?? PS: Fun fact - SHASTA UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT has been a long-standing partner of ours for the past two years, and we just love their innovation!
