ArtaQuest adalah platform pembelajaran terbuka yang berpasangan fisika dasar (bagaimana dunia bekerja) dengan filsafat kemanusiaan (why we use what we learn). Every course is priced at the equivalent of one US dollar per hour of video (charged in USD; shown in your local currency), and a bursary covers the full cost for anyone who needs it. The platform is run by Yayasan ArtaQuest, sebuah perusahaan nirlaba federal Kanada (#1794832-8 — verify on Corporations Canada). Tidak ada investor, manajer, atau anggota staf yang mendapat keuntungan dari biaya pelajar.
Tangga pencipta
We don’t gate on credentials or pedigree. Promotion is automatic and rests on one thing: the total coins you have earned. The five tiers run from Novice to Grandmaster, and each step up moves your revenue share closer to the full 100% — from 38% at Novice to 99% at Grandmaster. Each tier doubles the coin bar of the one below it — 10,000, 20,000, 40,000, 80,000, 160,000 — so every step up is genuinely twice as steep. The top tier takes a lifetime to reach — it is the equivalent of a tenured chair, and ArtaQuest takes almost nothing from a Grandmaster instructor’s courses.
Each tier doubles the bar. Novice 10,000 coins, Contributor 20,000, Expert 40,000, Master 80,000, Grandmaster 160,000 — about one in a thousand contributors reach Grandmaster. Promotions are automatic; the only criterion is total coins earned.
- Novice — 10,000 coins (entry tier)
- Contributor — 20,000 coins (twice the Novice bar)
- Expert — 40,000 coins (twice the Contributor bar)
- Master — 80,000 coins (twice the Expert bar)
- Grandmaster — 160,000 coins (twice the Master bar; about one in a thousand contributors reach it)
Grandmaster is the equivalent of a tenured chair — ArtaQuest takes almost nothing from a Grandmaster instructor’s courses.

Lecturer vs Instructor
Each ArtaQuest course credits two people. The Lecturer is the person on camera giving the lectures — the editorial face of the course. The Pengajar is the person who built the course on ArtaQuest: uploaded the videos, wrote the attention quizzes, set up the certificate. The Instructor is the one who climbs the creator ladder and receives the coin rewards on every review, certificate earned, and quiz passed.
A Lecturer doesn’t need to be on the platform. An Instructor is always an ArtaQuest member. The same person can be both.
Revenue share
Every ArtaQuest course is priced at the equivalent of one US dollar per hour of video (charged in USD). Anyone who cannot pay can apply for a bursary that covers the full cost — no one is turned away for lack of funds. The percentage above is what stays with the instructor after card-processing costs (~3%) are taken off. At the Grandmaster tier the platform keeps just 1% — effectively the card-processing cost — so the instructor keeps the rest. Hosting and our small content team are funded by donations to ArtaQuest Foundation, not from the creator’s share.
How rewards flow back to instructors
Coins land in the instructor’s wallet on every meaningful event:
- Review left on your course — +50 coins, once per review.
- Certificate earned on your course — +25 coins, once per student per course.
- Quiz passed on your course — +1 coin, once per student per quiz.
- Course published — 10 coins per hour of video, once per course.
Students get rewarded too — +50 coins on every review they leave, +10 on every quiz they pass, plus whatever the LMS point system pays for lessons + certificates.
Sumbangan diperhitungkan menuju ambang batas
Every dollar you donate becomes 1 ArtaQuest coin in your wallet, on the same ledger as the learning points above. Donating is one path to the coin thresholds — not a shortcut around the rest. You still need to publish courses, your students still need to pass quizzes, and reviews still need to come in for the upper tiers.
Apa yang tidak kita cari
- Courses that mostly rehash Wikipedia or summarise material a learner could just watch directly. The Novice tier is for turning real teaching into proper courses — dengan kuis perhatian, bagian terstruktur, dan sertifikat — bukan untuk mengunggah ulang klip.
- Konten yang mempromosikan produk atau layanan komersial.
- Konten politik yang tujuan utamanya adalah advokasi partisan. (Analisis sejarah-politik diperbolehkan; advokasi tidak.)
- Pseudoscience disajikan di bawah label ilmiah. (Konten filosofis atau spiritual secara eksplisit diterima — kami hanya memerlukan pelabelan yang jujur.)
