Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about lesson use, materials, licensing, and access.

How long is each lesson?

Most Moment Wise mini-lessons are designed for approximately 15–20 minutes. Teacher materials also identify the parts to prioritize when less time is available.

What is included with a course?

Courses include presentation slides with speaker notes, teacher guides, lesson-at-a-glance pages, student worksheets, teacher answer versions, and additional scenario practice where provided.

Do students need accounts or logins?

No. Educators download the lesson materials and present or distribute them directly to students. No student platform or account is required.

Are the materials editable?

Moment Wise courses include editable teaching files so educators can make practical adjustments for their setting while following the terms of the purchased license.

Can lessons be taught individually?

Yes. Courses are designed to build skills across a sequence, but individual lessons can also be selected when a topic fits a particular class, advisory period, or student need.

Where can the lessons be used?

Lessons can fit advisory, homeroom, health education, digital citizenship, counseling, small groups, ELA discussion, after-school programs, and prevention or youth-development settings.

Are teacher answer versions included?

Yes. Teacher versions provide sample responses and emphasize the quality of a student’s reasoning rather than requiring every student to use identical wording.

Is Moment Wise an SEL curriculum?

Moment Wise supports skills often associated with social and emotional learning, including self-awareness, perspective-taking, relationships, and responsible decision-making. It also extends into digital judgment, health and risk, media literacy, values, money, AI, and future readiness.

Can an entire school share one purchase?

Use is governed by the license purchased. Individual educator, school, and larger organizational options can be offered separately. Contact Moment Wise if you need access for multiple educators or locations.

Can the lessons be taught virtually?

Yes. Slides can be presented online and student materials can be shared digitally, depending on the file-use permissions in your license.
