Upload one file or a whole folder. Lesson Buddy groups student copies, answer keys, slides, and supporting materials so they stay together.

0$

The six-month promise

Everything stays open while the library grows.

No teacher will hit a download paywall before February 20, 2027. If Lesson Buddy introduces paid plans later, resources shared during the founding period may remain part of the library under the contributor licence accepted at upload.

Clear from day one

How sharing works.

Does everyone have access?

Yes. The site is public and every published resource can be searched and downloaded without a Lesson Buddy or ChatGPT login.

Who owns an uploaded resource?

The contributor keeps their copyright. They grant Lesson Buddy a broad, perpetual licence so the resource can stay in the library and be included in future free or paid services.

Can I upload school-owned work?

Only if you have permission. Teachers must confirm they own the resource or are authorized by their employer or co-authors to grant the licence.

Is this an official Alberta site?

No. Lesson Buddy is an independent community built for Alberta educators. Curriculum references should always be checked against official Alberta Education sources.

One province. Thousands of classrooms.

Let's build the drive Alberta teachers deserve.
