Are Viafocus lessons free?

Yes — every lesson in the library is free to play in the browser, with no account required. A free account lets you save lessons and see results.

Can I run a lesson live with my class?

Yes. Start a live session from any lesson — students join with a code on their own devices, and their answers land on your dashboard in real time.

Who creates the lessons?

Teachers in the community and the Viafocus studio team. Lessons built by the Viafocus studio carry a blue verified mark next to the byline.

Can I use a lesson someone else made?

Yes. Any published lesson can be played, shared with a class, or copied into your own library so you can adapt it before teaching it.

Mud & Glow - Why does mixing paints make brown but mixing lights make white?

Mixing paints makes brown because every colour you add absorbs more light, while mixing red, green and blue light makes white because light adds up. Swirl six wet paints on a theatre backdrop until the whole picture collapses into mud, then drag three spotlights together until the stage blooms pure white - and save the show with the light you have left.
