Reported experience

  1. What they did

    Michael Crist took the 12 PDFs his wife normally sorts by hand each month (supplementary materials, worksheets and reading content, some about 100 pages) and uploaded them to Claude Cowork. He described the daily schedule: which subjects go on which days, how long each block runs, and what order the material flows in. Cowork read the PDFs, sorted them by subject and built the plan.

  2. How it went

    The 12-day curriculum came out color-coded and ordered, with checkboxes, discussion prompts and popcorn reading. He says it took about 40 minutes, against roughly 20 hours of weekend work for his wife.

  3. Worth knowing

    The source gives no prompt for this one and doesn't say whether the plan needed corrections. For complex jobs, the author suggests adding a request to show the plan before it starts.
