Compass Classroom started creating educational videos for moms and students in the summer of 2010.
Although our parent company, Compass Cinema, had been creating videos for a while before that first year, we had the idea of starting a company just to cater to homeschool families after watching our own wives homeschool for a few years.
Moms need as much support as they can get homeschooling.
If one video course gives you a little more time to focus on other things, then that makes us happy. Some subjects are generally more difficult to teach than others so we try to make video series that cover those gaps. There are some great teachers out there who just do an incredible job explaining certain subjects.
A lesson on video is not the same as a lecture. We approach each new series with a blank page and try to match form and content in the most pedagogically-effective way.
In 2010, we started with our Visual Latin video curriculum. Using a combination of short videos and worksheets for different learning styles, it has transformed language learning for thousands of children.
This course covers how economic freedom is directly related to religious freedom. Archival footage, clear language and practical examples make it useful for individual or group study.
Dave Raymond applies a Christian worldview to the characters, events, theology, literature, art, and religious beliefs throughout American history. This is the first course from his four-part series.
We started carrying video products from our friends at Roman Roads Media.
Dwane Thomas of Visual Latin fame stars in a zany show teaching Latin and Greek roots, as well as hundreds of English words.
We produced our first product aimed at teaching moms more about homeschooling itself.
In Modernity, the follow-up course to American History, Dave Raymond explores world history from 1500 to the present.
We worked with Dr. Del Tackett and over a dozen scientists to create the first feature length documentary exploring the history of the earth from the perspective of Genesis.
Dr. Kurt Wise, who worked with us on the Is Genesis History? documentary, designed this unique class to fully integrate a Christian worldview with the biological sciences.

In a new Lectures series, classes were filmed in front of students then posted online each week. We then turned them into the 7 products in this format.

Created by the producer of Is Genesis History?, this series explains the science and scholarship of Genesis. Along the way, you’ll view lots of content we simply couldn’t fit into the documentary, as well as leading scholarship in this young field.
We developed a new class using R.C. Sproul’s lecture series, John Frame’s book on philosophy, and original readings from the philosophers themselves.
