Your students take their work home. Their video proof goes with them.

Mark teaches welding at a community college in Cleveland — pipe welding, structural welding, certification prep. Each student spends forty hours in the bay over a semester. Their finished work is portfolio material; their technique is what employers want to see.

Mark started recording short clips of each student’s welds — the bead, the puddle control, the post-weld appearance — as feedback for his own teaching. Then students started asking for copies. Then they started asking if they could pay for higher-quality versions to show employers during hiring season.

Mark uses Solberra to sell technique videos and finished-work photo albums after final exams. Each student gets footage of their own work suitable for portfolio submission, plus high-resolution photos for their résumé. Mark earns a little; students get something useful at exactly the moment they need it.
